Corpus Christi Catholic College

This month, 27 Year 10 students completed their Bronze Duke of Edinburgh expedition. They walked 20 kilometres over two days, carried all their equipment and enjoyed a night of camping, with all groups successfully passing the expedition section of their award!

On Tuesday evening, a group of our Corpus athletes took part in the annual athletics meet at John Charles Centre for Sport. All athletes competed to a very high standard, demonstrating determination, resilience, teamwork, and excellent sportsmanship throughout the event. They represented the school superbly and should be proud of their performances and achievements. Well done to all!

The Year 9 and 10 girls represented school brilliantly in their rugby final at AMT Headingley Stadium. They played an outstanding game in a closely contested match, showing great determination, teamwork, and resilience throughout. Although they narrowly missed out on the win, they should be incredibly proud of their performance. The girls were fantastic Corpus ambassadors, demonstrating excellent sportsmanship and representing the school with pride.

This month some of our students went on the Leeds Faith Trail! This is a collaborative interfaith initiative that gives students the chance to visit several different places of worship across West Yorkshire to learn about the area's diverse religions, cultures, and traditions!

Our Year 9 & 10 rugby team won their tournament with flying colours after impressive victories over strong opponents, Trinity and Abbey Grange. The girls showed outstanding teamwork, determination, skill and Corpus Spirit throughout the competition. They now go on to play in the final at AMT Headingly Stadium. Congratulations and good luck to the team!

Day 2 of our retreat at Castle Rigg Manor has been another fantastic experience for our students.

Yesterday included a guided hike through the local countryside, giving students the opportunity to enjoy the natural surroundings together. The group also visited Keswick, where students were able to explore the local area and enjoy some time together outside of the retreat setting.

Our students have had an excellent first retreat day at Castle Rigg Manor. They have settled in well, embraced new experiences, and represented the school brilliantly throughout the day.

It has also been wonderful to see students fully engaged, enjoying time away from their phones, and benefiting from a restful evening and a good night’s sleep ahead of another busy day!

Good luck to all our Year 11 students starting their GCSE exams today!
