Flautist, Chloë Ellen Jones of Lower Sixth, has been successful in progressing to the next round of the BBC Young Musician of the Year auditions and is set to participate in the next round this week.
Alongside this, Chloë has been appointed Principal Flute of the National Youth Orchestra of Great Britain for 2018. Chloë herself has thanked the school “for all your support and help, I could not have achieved all of this without the school and staff’s continued support and guidance”.
We wish you the best of luck for the next round of auditions. Well done Chloë!
Mr Brazendale (1949 – 58) made the donation personally in October 2017 having travelled from his home in Cumbria. He was met by staff from the Alumni Relations Office and had the experience of a modern-day school lunch before presenting the micrometers to some Middle School pupils and Sixth Formers in the afternoon.
On Tuesday 7th, five Year 10 girls travelled down to London to take part in the first Eco Schools Debate Challenge. All 5 girls made excellent contributions during debates based on important environmental issues such as whether deforestation only has negative consequences, whether the demand for water will lead to conflict and the importance of energy security over food security. The girls competed at a high standard against several other schools and were marked on the quality, relevance and timing of their debates. The team raised interesting and critical points and responded well under pressure to make excellent counter-arguments within the time restrictions.
