Race For Life
Thursday saw the whole school participate in Race for Life.
It was a wonderful, life-affirming event. All students and staff gave it their all – some even dressed up in pink accessories and we all reflected on who and what we were running for.
The sun was shining throughout – a brilliant day which once again saw St Nicholas coming together as the brilliant community that we are!
At the time of writing we have raised an amazing £1637
Year 12 Induction Day
Our new Year 12 students had an amazing time at Battlefield Live in Knutsford as part of their induction. They have made an impressive start to their time in the Sixth Form and their chosen subjects.
Open Evening
We look forward to welcoming Year 5 and Year 6 students to our Open Evening on Wednesday 25th September 6-8pm.

Book of the Week
Drama by Raina Telgemeier is number 7 in the US Top 100 Most Frequently Challenged Books 2010 – 2019. Quite the feat considering it’s a gorgeous book about an aspiring theatrical designer navigating friendships and first crushes in the midst of a middle school’s production of a musical. This has been a popular book in our library and well worth a read.
