Our Year 7–9 students visited the Museum of Science and Industry this week to explore exciting future careers in STEM. An inspiring trip that sparked curiosity about the world of work and the opportunities ahead. #FutureCareers #STEM

Celebrating World Book Day! Our staff embraced this year’s Heroes and Villains theme, dressing up as some iconic characters from the world of books. A fantastic way to celebrate stories and share the joy of reading with our students. #WorldBookDay#Lovereading

Year 11 Intervention sessions are continuing this week - a great opportunity to revisit key topics, close gaps and build confidence ahead of your exams. Please check your timetable for your session times and make sure you attend. Every session counts! 📚

Thrilled to be part of the National School Breakfast Programme with @family_action! Free, healthy breakfasts each morning mean our pupils start the day focused, fuelled and ready to learn! #NSBP #setuptosucceed #bestchancetolearn #freebreakfast

Well done, Year 11! Day 1 of exams is complete and you should be incredibly proud of yourselves. Your focus, resilience and positive attitude today were brilliant. We are proud of you.

Our Year 11 students begin their mock exams tomorrow - a chance to put preparation into practice. A reminder to students and parents that nerves are normal, sleep matters and mindset counts. These wellbeing posters are here to support calm minds and confident starts. 🌱📘

It was fantastic to have Bury Youth Participation Team in school delivering a session on Democracy and the difference between local and national politics. A lively debate from Year 7 students who overwhelmingly voted for fixing the potholes in Bury!

Year 9 Options Evening 5th Feb 16:00 - 18:00! Come along and see the great subjects we have on offer for KS4. We look forward to lots of rich discussion around your future plans.

In worship this week, our school reflected on the Holocaust - a vital reminder of the importance of compassion, understanding and standing up against prejudice. We continue to build a community where everyone feels valued and cared for. Together, we choose kindness.

Dr Wrigley was honoured to represent the school at the Holocaust Memorial Event at Bury Town Hall. She was exceptionally proud of Charlotte F and Elijah C, who spoke at the event. Their contributions were a true credit to our school community.

We are incredibly proud to show off these amazing medals for Kick Boxing won by Ellie C in Year 11! The best being winning the World Championship in Niagara Falls at the end of last year! Well done Ellie!

Some special guests were in school this week to help Year 7 build their Bug Hotels. Local scientists and a university lecturer helped the students put this together to help improve biodiversity on the school site. What a brilliant experience in the Action for Change curriculum!

Our staff are looking forward to welcoming our students back into school on Tuesday 6th January 2026. We hope you have all had a wonderful Christmas and New Year. We can't wait to see what you will achieve in 2026!

We are proud to share that our students donated over 30 shoeboxes to the Samaritan’s Purse Operation Christmas Child Appeal. A brilliant example of our pupils showing Respect, Responsibility and Resilience, helping to spread hope and joy to children around the world.

Our focus in worship this week has been Joy. We reflected on the meaning of joy and how we can bring joy to our peers, teachers and wider community during Advent.

Today our whole school attended a joyful and inspiring Christmas service at Bury Parish Church. The student readers, choir and band performed brilliantly and made us proud! Thank you for a truly inspiring service for all our staff and students.

9Y came first in the form room Christmas decoration competition! Well done to all students for decorating the form rooms so well. 2nd place - 10R, 3rd place - 7Y. Lots of Festive activities at Bury Church today!

We can't wait to see our talented performers in action!
