Huge well done to our Year 10s! 🌟✨

In a month long contest between all the school Fylde and Wyre, the boys' team secured the win in their Peace and Conflict debate, with our girls' team coming in 3rd - the team were highly praised by staff from other schools and we couldn't be more proud!

We secured a close 2nd and 3rd on overall points.
