Year 8 Environmental Officers Plant Daffodils
Yesterday our Year 8 Environmental Officers were busy planting daffodil bulbs which were kindly donated by Cottons Hotel & Spa. The Environmental Officers are part of our new Student Ambassador scheme, and are already working hard to make positive changes to the school environment by demonstrating our school values of ambition, respect and kindness.
Westfield Drive Donate to Street Buddies Manchester
During this term students at Westfield Drive have been collecting donations for Street Buddies Manchester, a local charity that support the homeless in Manchester. We have been gathering collections of hats, gloves, socks, hand and foot warmers and Christmas selection boxes that the charity can distribute to people in need in the run up to Christmas. It is fair to say that we were absolutely taken aback by the generous donations made by our Westfield Drive community! We had over 500 items donated- we filled the whole car! Lou and Sara from Street Buddies (pictured here with three of our Student Ambassadors and Mrs Szkolar) were so thankful for all of the donations and wanted us to pass on their thanks to everyone who gave so generously!
Legally Blonde - Tuesday 10th to Saturday 14th December

Independent Financial Advisor Visits Knutsford
Our Business Department were delighted to welcome Sue Campion, an Independent Financial Advisor, from Haven IFA, Sale, Cheshire, to visit our Y13 students currently studying for a Level 3 Diploma in Financial Studies. Not only did Sue quiz them on their current financial knowledge, but she also gave them an insight into a typical working week and some very useful guidance on how to embark upon a career in the Financial Services sector. The students thoroughly enjoyed the visit.
Year 7 Ambassadors Visit Care Home
Our Year 7 Student Ambassadors visited Sharston House, a local care home, yesterday to spread some Christmas cheer! In the morning, they wrote Christmas cards for the residents and then delivered them in the afternoon along with some homemade mince pies. The students chatted to the residents, handed out treats and even sang some Christmas songs. AJ, one of our Ambassadors, treated them to a performance on the piano, which they loved! It was a fantastic day, enjoyed by residents, students and staff! Merry Christmas!
