🚴 Incredible Achievement by Casen!

Only four places were awarded to riders from across the country, and Casen is one of them. He will now represent his country in International BMX Freestyle Competitions – what an outstanding accomplishment for a 14-year-old!

💧 Students Said, We Listened, We Did!
We’re thrilled to share some exciting news that came directly from student feedback! You asked for better access to fresh drinking water – and we delivered.
Three brand-new water fountains have been installed across the school:
✔ By Drama
✔ In the Dining Area
✔ In the PE Corridor
These aren’t just standard taps – they’re designed with dual functionality, so you can drink from the fountain or easily fill up your bottles. Plus, each unit has high-quality filters for fresh, clean, and refreshingly cold water.
This improvement is all about making our school experience healthier and better.
Thank you to all the students who shared their ideas – keep them coming!

⚽ Braving the Elements at the U13 EFL Girls Cup!
Miss Logan, Miss Broughton and 29 of our amazing Year 7 and 8 girls headed to Shrewsbury Town FC for the U13 EFL Girls Cup.
The four teams battled through wind, rain, hail and freezing conditions against five other schools – and played some brilliant football! Our ‘Idsall United’ team made it all the way to the final, where they narrowly missed out on victory after a tense penalty shootout.
🌟 Incredible resilience and lots of fun had by all! Well done to every player!
Star Players:
Lucy S | Maisie P | Ruby W | Molly S | April R | Thea B | Isla M
