Even in these challenging times it has been good to see staff and students bring some Christmas cheer to the school environment. The Year 7 French and Spanish Christmas Card Competition has certainly brightened up our smart new reception area of the school and the artistic and linguistic talent on show is impressive. I would like to thank all students and staff involved in organising the competition which has put a smile on many of our visitors to the school. Along with our Christmas trees in the school foyer and Main Hall they have helped to spread a little Christmas spirit in the school as we all look forward to a well deserved rest over the upcoming holiday period.
