After a whirlwind of a week it's Friday again and this morning we were treated to our incredible Demi-Leigh playing bagpipes in Mrs Nellis' diversity assembly. If you would like to have a sneak peak of this head over to our Twitter feed (X).

Dramatic Tales

This term some of our Hub pupils have been enjoying the talents of our inspirational drama teacher!

As part of their drama fairy tales scheme of work. Pupils in HUBM designed their own sets for the 3 little pigs, 1 straw house, 1 house made out of sticks and 1 brick house. Pupils then used the puppets, masks and set to re-enact the story. The pupils have worked for several lessons to create an entertaining performance.

Feel Good Story

Every so often we need a little 'pick me up' to end the week on a positive note...Thomas Kelly- ex Castle Hill student is currently to be heard on Stockport Train Station announcing the arrivals and departures of the trains.

He is doing a work placement with Avanti that is supported by Pure Innovations.

Thomas is also proving to be invaluable to the company on strike days as he has detailed knowledge of all the bus routes and timetables!

Well done Thomas...and...mind the gap!!!
