Saffron, Tanyaradzwa, Maria and Kate made up our Sixth Form debating team that took part in the Catholic Schools Debating competition againt four other local Catholic schools on Wednesday 14 March 2018.  They were asked to debate should Sportsmen and Sportswomen be paid the same.

Monday 12th March 56 students from Year 7-13 were lucky enough to visit the Houses of Parliament in London - the home of our democracy.  We visited the Palace of Westminster and were able to go into both chambers; the House of Commons and the House of Lords and had a marvellous insight into the procedures and oddities of our legislature.  Did you know the first way that our MPs vote is to shout 'aye' or 'no' and see who is the loudest?! 

We then took part in a representation and democracy workshop where we explored the strengths and weaknesses of different voting systems.  Well done to the girls for asking such intelligent questions and for their impeccable behaviour.  We were very proud of you
