From Jonathan Maddox, Headteacher
NEW HEAD STUDENTS APPOINTED
Following a rigorous selection process, the initial stages of which were led by the outgoing Head Students, a
new Head Student Team has been appointed. The new team has a hard act to follow as it follows one of the
strongest, hardest-working and most impactful teams that I can recall. Our congratulations and very best
wishes to the new team. The new team are photographed below; unfortunately Bertie is unwell today and
therefore is omitted from the photograph.

YEAR 12 VISIT THE CRANEDALE CENTRE - Report by Aashobanaa Valli and Yasmin Hornsby (Year 12)
On Sunday 3 February, Year 12 Biologists and Environmental Scientists visited the Cranedale Centre in
North Yorkshire for three days to explore the biodiversity of the surrounding area.
After arriving, we were assigned our rooms and given a mini tour of the centre, followed by a three-course
dinner. But it wasn’t time for bed yet. Venturing out into the snow-filled woods, we took some Longworth
traps with us, hoping to catch some different species of mice. These traps were humane so the animals
were not harmed.

Monday began with checking our traps. Unfortunately
our group was unsuccessful, but another group found
a wood-mouse which was eagerly photographed by Mr
Perez.
After putting all five layers on (or eleven for some), we
headed towards the river in wellies and waterproofs to
investigate the biodiversity in a freshwater ecosystem.
This mainly involved wading through rivers and trying
not to fill our boots with water. The main species we
found were freshwater shrimp. For the first time in
years, Mr Stainton managed to not fall into the river!
Our final day consisted of layering up once again, but this time we went to Filey Beach to conduct a transect
investigation. This was interesting as we were able to observe and see a variety of species.
Our journey ended with our return to the Centre to collect our bags and head home, after a tiring but
engaging three days.
YEAR 13 MEDIA STUDENTS ATTEND THE BAFTAs RED CARPET
Report by Joshua Martin-Jones and Jessica Tooth (Year 13)
Waking up at 03:30 to catch a coach down to London was never going to be fun, but as Media students
and extremely avid film fans, Josh and I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to gain access to the red carpet of
the 72nd British Academy Film Awards last Sunday, 10 February.
We collected our numbered wristbands at 10:00, an activity that was somewhat akin to The Hunger Games,
and filed onto the red carpet around three hours before it all kicked off at 5pm. Among the actors and
celebrities that graced the carpet, and we were lucky enough to catch sight of, were Batman himself,
Christian Bale (leading actor nominee for Vice), Suicide Squad and I, Tonya star Margot Robbie (supporting
actress nominee for Mary Queen of Scots), Taron Egerton (agent Eggsy Unwin from the Kingsman franchise
and star of upcoming Elton John biopic Rocketman), Adam Driver (Star Wars villain Kylo Ren and supporting
actor nominee for BlacKkKlansman) and the talented Octavia Spencer (executive producer of Green Book,
which held 4 nominations and snatched up the supporting actor award thanks to Mahershala Ali). Not only
did Josh and I have the opportunity to see the stars in the flesh, we were also incredibly lucky to be able to
meet and speak to a few celebrities we both greatly admire.
Josh and I with Olivia Colman - rightful winner Papped with the lovely Bradley Cooper, who
of the leading actress award for her role as received nominations for both Best Director
Queen Anne in The Favourite, a film which and Lead Actor for the musical drama A Star
also scored the BAFTAs for Costume Design, Is Born, which won the award for Best Original
Make Up & Hair, Production Design, Original Music.
