Our Year 7 students have had a fantastic time at the Anderton Centre in Chorley today, where they’re enjoying plenty of outdoor adventure to mark the start of their journey as Westholme Seniors.

Braving the gloomy weather, our new Year 7 cohort worked as a team to build rafts, kayak and take part in water sports out on the lake, before warming up with marshmallows toasted on their campfire.

Well done, everyone!

What a night!

Thank you to everyone who came along and helped to make our Open Evening last week so special.

Visitors enjoyed speaking with our passionate staff and students, where they learnt more about the opportunities available across academics, sport and the performing arts here at Westholme.

The evening was made even more special with performances from the talented cast of our upcoming Chicago production, who transported us across the pond for some 1920s glitz and glamour.

If you were unable to attend our Open Evening but would still like to experience Westholme, we would be delighted to welcome you for a personal tour.

Please call our Admissions team on 01254 50 60 88 to book yours now.
