Wishing super chef Maisie the very best of luck as she competes in the Future Chef Regional finals today- she’s had the privilege to work with Michelin star chef Ryan Blackburn from the Old Stamp House, Ambleside, to hone her skills in preparation!

Also for World Book Day: eagle eyed students searched for 6 word logos hidden around the school which they exchanged for a breaktime treat. All students received their World Book Day tokens too! #BeResilient

Day 2 in Paris involved a visit to Park Asterix. We noticed how creative the designers of the park are when creating the buildings and different themed areas representing different time periods and cultures. #BeReadyForYourFuture
