Hollingworth Business and Enterprise College

Hollingworth Business and Enterprise College

At Hollingworth this week we celebrated the successes of our pupils by holding Presentation Evenings for KS3 & KS4. We would like to thank parents, carers and staff for attending the evenings and well done to pupils who received an award for all their hard work.

We would like to invite all parents of prospective pupils to our open evening on Wednesday 6 October. College will be open from 6pm onwards with the Headteacher, Mr Burnett, opening the evening with a speech in the dinning hall at 6.15pm. The speech will be repeated at 6.45pm and 7.15pm

On Monday 11 October year 6 pupils from local primary schools will be sending the day with us. They will be working within different departments to get a feel for life at Hollingworth. College will be closed to Hollingworth pupils for staff training.

‘FIRST LEGO LEAGUE CHALLENGE’ Calling all creative and enthusiastic pupils in Years 7, 8, 9 & 10 with an interest in S.T.E.M. (Science, Technology, Engineering & Maths). The D & T team would like to invite you to take part in the ‘First Lego League Challenge’. You will be working as part of a team to solve problems, develop strategies and build & program a Lego Robot. Due to a high demand in previous years and a shortage of spaces available, if interested in this after school club, please see a member of the D & T team as soon as possible.

There will be a new Dance Club for Years 8 & 9 on Thursdays, 1.50pm in the Dance Studio. Tuesday Dance Club will continue as normal.

Calling all year 7, 8 & 9’s who may be interested in joining an exciting new club. Thursday’s 2pm – 3pm. The STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering & Maths) club will perform experiments and take on challenges like – who can build the best rocket, which team can build the strongest bridge and many more. You will be using your enterprise skills to hopefully achieve a bronze award. There are a limited number of spaces, so if you are interested please speak to Miss Beckham in room 32 or any of your science teachers for more information.
