Head of Computing (Comp Sci, IT & iMedia) at Byrchall High School. Big geek. Sports fan. Dad to a little lady with half a heart but somehow twice the strength.

Another wonderful time at the @byrchall Founder's Evening at @haydockraces. It was great to watch our excellent students performing and receiving their awards, including several from my form. It's impossible to come away without a smile on your face and an immense sense of pride.

@HeartCentreAld1 @AlderHey @LHCHFT @NwchdN What a man. Not only was Rafael involved in my daughter's care but he also told me I was basically a wreck just before my own surgery! Good luck in the future with your new role ❤️

[C Smethurst @ByrchallCJS]

I think a lot of my @byrchall students will know why I think this is so important but have a look if you get chance. You could save a life. https://t.co/7xMpnH0cOZ

I've just completed training to become a Quizizz Certified Game Changer, really looking forward to seeing how its advanced features can be used in class now. https://t.co/ae4LQ2vJDG

[C Smethurst @ByrchallCJS]

I just completed the @Quizizz Game Changer Certification! I had no idea that I could do so much using Quizizz! 🎉 💜 https://t.co/FQxgHdy68e #edtech #youcanwithquizizz @kyleniemis

@johngriffinuk I remember we were doing the triple jump. "Paddy, if you shout about Jonathan Edwards one more time you're going in." ..."And here comes Jonathan Edw-" "PADDY! IN! NOW!" 😁 I loved school - the teachers made it look like such a rewarding job that quite a few of my year teach now.

[C Smethurst @ByrchallCJS]

Well, whoever you are, you've put a smile on my face. Thank you so much.

[C Smethurst @ByrchallCJS]

It all started here for me, when my little girl inspected one of the many @chocoranges Chris dropped off at @AlderHeyCharity when we were staying with @HeartCentreAld1 - I knew the @byrchall community could contribute to this great cause and we've gone from strength to strength!

[Byrchall High School @byrchall]

Last week, we were pleased to hand over a staggering 721 chocolate oranges as part of our Team Chocolate Orange charity appeal. A huge THANK YOU to everyone who has kindly donated to this great cause! @chocoranges

[C Smethurst @ByrchallCJS]

Thank you Mr Yardley and DunnHumby for the amazingly generous donation of 120 @chocoranges to the @byrchall collection today. We're very close to topping last year's record of 370 with a couple of weeks left to go too!

[C Smethurst @ByrchallCJS]

As the father of an ICU and Ward 1C @HeartCentreAld1 veteran, I can't wait to donate to this. What a brilliant example of treating not only the symptoms but also the child @AlderHeyCharity

[C Smethurst @ByrchallCJS]

This is absolutely brilliant. And for our iMedia students, look at the visual identity and audience appeal on this!

[🏥 Alder Hey 💙 @AlderHey]

We are so excited to announce that, with the support of @MediCinema and @AlderHeyCharity, we will be creating a state-of-the-art cinema inside our hospital! 🎦 The cinema will be free for our children & young people to enjoy during their stay 🏥 More info: https://t.co/qlWDkVW1S5

[C Smethurst @ByrchallCJS]

I've played this since it was called Championship Manager 97/98 and I can honestly say it's one of my favourite games of all time. I think Mr Scott from @ByrchallHistory / @ByrchallRE would say the same!

Done mine!

[Byrchall Computing @ByrchallICT]

With #CRYTOT kicking off tomorrow night at 8pm, it's time for your @byrchall #Forescore Matchday 10 predictions!

[C Smethurst @ByrchallCJS]

Join our @byrchall Forescore league! Download the app from Apple https://t.co/gdGHQHvMzQ or Google https://t.co/glPllQMKs9 and join using code 4Y91WX. Appropriate usernames only please or you will be removed from the leaderboard.

[C Smethurst @ByrchallCJS]

Stephen has kindly added my suggestion to let admins remove players from leagues if needed. I'll be starting the @byrchall ⚽🏆league in @forescore_io soon so just make sure your username is appropriate/sensible so I won't have to use 'my' 'Remove User' feature! 😁 iPhone/Android

[C Smethurst @ByrchallCJS]

@MrSimpsonChemi1 @Saints1890 @byrchall Nope. It's a different kettle of fish when they play @saints1890women (we've got an ex-pupil playing for Saints as well), but today Carys was the only former pupil playing and I'm a Lancastrian! Hope you're well by the way 👍🏻

[C Smethurst @ByrchallCJS]

I'm a @Saints1890 fan but will be sticking up for former @byrchall student Carys Marsh here 📺🏉
