Night-time bat walk
This week Mr Hobbs and Mrs Stephenson took Environmental Science students to St Nicholas Park for a night-time bat walk. Hosted by the very informative and helpful Warwick Bat Group they discovered 5 species of bats beside the river, one of which had not been recorded there before! Students learnt how to use the bat detectors and took part in a survey of these vulnerable and amazing creatures. A big thank you to Warwick Bat Group for their help in arranging this event!

Safeline speak at Year 13 assembly
Thank you to Colin, Millie and Emma from Safeline who were guest speakers at Year 13’s assembly last week. As many of our Year 13 students prepare to leave home it was a timely reminder of the dangers of sexual assault, how they can best protect themselves and others and which support agencies to turn to should they need them. Raising awareness of this issue is vital and it really highlighted how we all can play a role in keeping everyone safe.
Year 12 trip to Compton Verney
Year 12 art students enjoyed an exciting and rewarding day at Compton Verney this week. They worked with life models to create a variety of experimental drawings at first hand. Both ‘Paul’ the model and the tutor at Compton Verney were impressed by the quality of work produced. The first time that students work with a live model is a daunting experience and they conducted themselves brilliantly. They also had the opportunity to see art in the galleries and a terrifying spider sculpture by the artist Louise Bourgeois.
