Our Year 10 students enjoyed an afternoon of music, dancing & fun at their End of Year Reward Summer Party. 🎉

The students invited to the party had achieved the highest attendance & credits across the year group, recognising their hard work, commitment & positive achievements throughout the year.

It was wonderful to see everyone enjoying themselves & making lasting memories with their friends before the summer break.

Well done, Year 10 – we hope you all had an amazing afternoon! 🌟
