Football - Pupils Vs Staff

Clifton Y11 and Clifton staff All-Stars take to the field (well astro!) at TRC later today to contend the annual pupils Vs staff football match, the highlight of the Y11 sporting calendar. The kick off is scheduled for 4pm and Clifton would urge any pupils or staff from either the past or present to come down to show support to either sides, if you don't want to show support but want to heckle the staff then you are also welcome to attend!

It all started with a sink and a plughole...!

Year 7 students enjoyed a treat on Monday 20th May with a visit from local children's author, David Lawrence-Jones. Walking into the Performance Hall, they were greeted by a very intriguing scene with a luxurious-looking roll top bath in the middle of the room!

3,2,1 Ignition!

Friday 3^rd May saw up and coming boyband “The Ignition Boys” playing to a packed out Clifton: A Community Arts School performance hall. Pupils from Y9 and Y10 had been given the chance to win a ticket to the concert through meeting school targets and good work in lessons, and the Clifton staff were delighted to see such a packed auditorium.

Big cheque season!

For the 2^nd time in a week, Clifton: A Community Arts School staff were delighted to see its student showing a sense of community and pride as they handed over a donation to a charitable cause. Pupils from the Y11 cohort undertook the organisation of two concerts as part of there BTEC coursework for Music. You can read more from the students involved below:

Cooking up a storm!!

ACE students were recently given the opportunity to take part in a recipe competition in association with Co-op Fairtrade as part of their Fairtrade fortnight. The group were given a list of five Fairtrade ingredients that they had to incorporate into a recipe of their own making. These were chocolate chip cookies, coffee, honey, ice-cream and a spice of their choice, all Fairtrade products.

Give a little RSPCA!

Pupils from Y11 presented the RSPCA with a cheque for £79.03, the RSPCA (and Darcy the dog) were pleased that the pupils had chosen to donate the funds raised from their performance evening to the charity.
