WALK THE WIGHT BOARD GAME CREATORS RECEIVE AWARD FROM ISLE OF WIGHT HIGH SHERIFF The team of Island VI Form students were awarded High Sheriff Nigel Hartley's first High Sheriff Award.

Thank you to all of the professionals who came in last Friday to run the Festival Safety Mini Roadshow. NHS Inclusion, NHS Sexual Health and Smoke Free Island all provided really useful advice, helping our students to be informed and prepared.

If you are heading to the Isle of Wight Festival this weekend, remember to look after yourselves and each other.

On Tuesday 16 June, over 50 Island VI Form students attended a wide range of online University Taster Lectures. The universities involved included Warwick, Surrey and Edinburgh. Subjects as diverse as Archaeology, Media, Law and Physics were included in the 24 different sessions. These lectures allowed the students to get a feel for what university study will be like, and also an insight into life at the different university providers.
