Well done to the students who attended the Oldham Coliseum to see ‘Chicago’ this week. The students were impeccably behaved and several members of the public complimented students on the way they conducted themselves. A lovely evening was enjoyed by everyone. Thanks to Mr Mvula and Mr Dalby for running the event.

Students are busy rehearsing dance pieces for the forthcoming Rochdale ‘Ideas and Literature Festival’. Year 10 BTEC Dance students are working Spiral Dance to create pieces based around the poems of Simon Armitage and these will be shown to the poet at a special event during the festival. Well done to all the learners involved in this project.

Tickets for our ‘Arts and Curry Night’ on Friday 22 November are available from school priced £5.00 (no concs.) This includes the cost of food and entertainment. A vegetarian option will be also served. Tickets are available directly from school via telephone or via students at breaktimes, lunchtimes or after school. For more details, please see Mr De Courcey.

Our new look website is now up and running and we hope that it provides useful information of parents, students and friends of the school. If you have any comments about how we might improve the online provision then please contact school directly as we try to develop our services further.

Our Arts Community Events Calendar has been issued to many local primaries and is available online on our school ‘Facebook’ account. If you would like to book onto any of the forthcoming workshops or sessions then please contact Mr De Courcey directly in school.

Many thanks to the families and friends of school who came along to take tours of our new building on Saturday 28 September. We were delighted that so many families joined us and we are looking forward to the opening of the building very soon.
