[South Wirral High School @SouthWirral]

Yesterday, some of our Y8 students visited the Wirral Deen Centre with Miss Martin and Mrs Bouchti. They learned about the Five Pillars of Islam, Ramadan, and the purpose of a mosque, while also exploring how the centre supports the local community. 🕌🌍

[Penketh High School @PenkethSchool]

So proud of our Rise to 9 pupils for finishing the ROAR programme with Olivia from Priestley College. They mastered formal debating, critical thinking, and academic writing, resulting in a 100% pass rate on university-level projects. Well done to our future leaders!

[The Challenge Academy Trust @TCATchallenge]

A brilliant Monday @BroomfieldsJnr We’ve opened the newly revamped Y3 classrooms - high‑tech, natural-feeling and such a calm, beautiful space for learning 💚
Huge thanks to everyone involved for all rower hard work in getting it ready- the children’s excitement said it all!

[Maple Tree Class @MapleTree_GSP]

We loved inventing and then making potions, inspired by our book, ‘Room on the Broom!’ Ingredients included bat’s blood, dragon’s fire and snake snot!

[Penketh High School @PenkethSchool]

Yesterday 200 of our pupils visited the Epstein Theatre in Liverpool for a fantastic performance of Romeo and Juliet 🎭

It was a brilliant chance for our Year 10s to see the play they’ve been studying come to life on stage!

Well done to everyone for representing us so well.

[AllAboardYouthRowing @AAYouthRowing]

Much as we’ve loved preparing for the Indoor Champs, it’s so nice to be out on the water in the sunshine! Looks like spring has sprung and our students (and school leads and coaches!) are loving it! 😎 ☀️ 🚣 #youthrowing #allaboardyouthrowing #youthsport #outdoors #youthwellbeing

[Great Sankey Primary and Nursery School @GtSankeyPrimary]

What a day we’ve had celebrating everything to do with books and reading! From Room on the Broom spells and potion mixing, to book scavenger hunts, live author events, book quizzes and a book themed lunch - we’ve done it all and had such fun!
