🎭 Macbeth by candlelight! 🕯️
Over 100 of our students had a wonderful cultural experience today on a trip to the fantastic Shakespeare North Playhouse, led by our English Department.
Students watched an atmospheric performance of Macbeth, lit entirely by candlelight and directed by Ben Crystal, a prominent British actor, author and creative producer known for his pioneering work on Shakespeare’s original pronunciation and Elizabethan staging practices.
As well as offering students a unique opportunity to experience Shakespeare brought vividly to life on stage, the visit will help deepen their understanding and appreciation of Macbeth as they study the play for GCSE English Literature.
A memorable and inspiring day of theatre! 🎭📚🕯️#Macbeth #Shakespeare #EnglishLiterature #GCSEEnglish #Theatre LearningBeyondTheClassroom
An inspiring evening at the @walkerartgallery in Liverpool!
Last night, five of our GCSE Art & Design students had the incredible opportunity to attend the @patrick__mcdowell and Talia Byre in Conversation event with ELLE magazine.
What made the evening even more special was that Patrick is a former student of our school. Patrick has gone on to build an exciting creative career, designing and creating clothes for high-profile clients including Lady Gaga, Billy Porter, Lizzo and Harry Styles.
After the event, he took the time to speak with our students, sharing memories of his own time at school and asking about their ambitions and dreams.
It was a truly special moment for our students to meet someone who once sat where they are now and has gone on to achieve so much in the fashion industry.
A huge thank you to Patrick for taking the time to inspire the next generation of young creatives. We hope this is an experience our students will remember for many years to come! #inspiration #fashion

Our theme this week is Generosity. 💛
In the Gospel, Jesus reminds us that God’s love isn’t something we compete for or earn, it is freely given to everyone. This week, we’re challenged to have generous hearts: giving our time, kindness, encouragement and forgiveness without asking, “What will I get in return?” How can you show generosity this week? 🌱
