Rotary Technology Young Engineer Challenge

Well done to Foundation Team who won their category at the Rotary Technology Young Engineer Challenge held at Birchwood yesterday.

Many local schools took part. It was fascinating to see how students invented instruments to meet the requirements of the challenge they were set.

Autumn Music Concert

 It was a wonderful evening with many fantastic performances.

Congratulations to all students who took part and made it such a special evening.

Remembrance Rocks

As we commemorate the 100 year anniversary of WW1 the school wanted to remember each of the individual Stortfordian soldiers who died and we set ourselves the target of painting poppies on rocks together with the names of the 208 Stortfordians who are remembered on the town’s war memorial.

The idea was inspired by a combination of the ‘Shrouds of The Somme’ project and also the ‘Stansted Stones’ idea you may have seen on Facebook. We accidentally missed the end of WWI and went into WWII so rather than leaving the project unfinished we have created remembrance rocks for the remainder of the town’s fallen, as commemorated on the town’s war memorial.

Special thanks to Mr Morton for making this possible.

Frantic Workshop

Year 10 and 12 Drama students were involved in a Frantic Assembly workshop led by a professional actor, Richard James-Neale. The style of Frantic’s work is to create non-naturalistic pieces through the use of movement and music and the purpose of this workshop was to inspire students to work in this style as they prepare for their devised exam pieces. The work created was touching, creative and thoughtful and Richard described the students as ‘warm and engaged.’
