A visit by four wonderful OOs yesterday was the highlight of Mrs Bowd's day! They came back to school to share their experiences (the highs, and the lows) of University life with our current Fifth and Sixth Form pupils, as part of our Futures Fortnight programme.

Huge thanks to Josh Counter; Darcie Connacher; Emma Lincoln and Jasmine Teague for your time, - it was lovely to see you all!
