Well done to the BTEc dance students who were involved in the ‘Dance to Echo’ project with Spiral Dance on Friday this week. The learners produced a short film based on a poem which was reviewed by the poet Simon Armitage as part of the Rochdale ‘Ideas and Literature’ Festival. Congratulations on the excellent work by all involved.

Mr Mvula and the Year 10 Drama group were involved in a protest poetry session with ‘Just Poets’ this week and staged a mock protest as part of the Rochdale ‘Ideas and Literature’ Festival. Well done to all involved and we hope the photos will be available on school website very soon.
