Weekly Update - 5 July 2024 - Calthorpe Park School

We are looking forward to our school show, “Sister Act” which opens on Tuesday 9 July and runs for five nights. A few tickets are still available – see this link to book numbered seats in the Hall and we hope you enjoy the show!

We had a very successful day hosting and celebrating the Hampshire Book Award here at Calthorpe on Tuesday. Students and staff from 10 other schools in the Hampshire area joined us, and there was a brilliant buzz of book chat on every table. The students were a mix of schools on every table, and it was great to observe them all sharing their views and opinions of all six books – with some enthusiastic ‘loved its’ and some strong ‘no ways’! After some time spent discussing, students then voted online and with a little wait as votes were counted and verified – filled in with some fun quizzes – the winner was announced. Electric life by Rachel Delahaye came out on top – a digital dystopian future adventure. A worthy winner. Thank you to the 14 Year 8 students who took part –other school staff members commented that our students were a credit to Calthorpe: Elliot D, Lieze R, Kimmie M, Bethany D, Nicoleta D, Ailith S, Eleanor S, Orthavia P, Jacob L, Jesscia M, Jasmine K, Laiba M, Nicoleta D, Sophia P.
