Pope Francis reminds us,
‘Dear brothers and sisters, the Ascension does not point to Jesus’ absence, but tells us that he is alive in our midst in a new way. He is no longer in a specific place in the world as he was before the Ascension. He is now in the lordship of God, present in every space and time, close to each one of us. In our life we are never alone: we have this Advocate who awaits us, who defends us. We are never alone. ‘
Sixth Form Gateway Programme launched!
The Gateway Programme is a bespoke series of support sessions running over an eighteen-month cycle to support St Nicholas students with their applications to Oxbridge, Medicine, Dentistry and Veterinary Science courses after they leave Sixth Form. So far, we have had a number of meetings including a very interesting and detailed students’ perspective on applying for Medicine courses from two past Sixth Form students, Victoria Fletcher and Ronan Eves, who are in their third year of Medicine at the University of Leeds and the University of Edinburgh respectively. In addition to this, we also welcomed back Bella Manfredi who is in her first year at Cambridge, with Year 12 students able to ask questions and to get an overview of the Oxbridge application and experience from our former Head Prefect of the School.
If you are keen on a career in Medicine or studying at an Oxbridge College, please make yourself known to either of us. Remember the only thing standing in your way is your own ambition!
Keep an eye on your school email for opportunities to apply for courses, visits and workshops around supporting your applications to Oxbridge, Medicine and Veterinary Sciences.
