Thursday 3rd September saw the start of the new academic year. To help the students who are new to the school to settle in, and to give the Year 12s a good start to their time in the sixth form - we put on a Ceilidh.
The band were expertly led by Mr Burgon on the accordion and joined by Mr Chua on the bass and Miss Wormold on the violin. I played my part by doing the calling. The Year 12s were really good and didn't take themselves too seriously so got a lot out of the dancing. The PR (prefect body) helped to make everyone feel relaxed and joined in.
Afterwards, the students retired to the Dixon lawn to have a BBQ while parents had the opportunity to talk to tutors of their children.
