This weekend - part one - Byrchall High School


I attended the Byrchall Festival on Saturday which was celebrating the school's gaining maths and computing specialist school status.

I was very impressed with the events that had been organised by the school which included among other things a netball competition, a maths competition, a live band from the school, an Army assault course and dodgem rides.

The one thing that caught my attention was the display of owls, eagles and hawks on the football field. A very unusual sight.

I hope everyone who attended enjoyed the day and congratulations to the school for organising the event.

Hello Nigel,
I attended and thought it was very good. I liked the way they involved the local primary schools
making it more of a community event.
Also thought Ian McCartney made some good points in his speech about the wider community and overseas connections with the school.
Ian.
