Clubs
Eat, Sleep, Mine, Repeat - This club meet once a week at lunchtime in F60.
Cyberfirst Competition - During the last week in January 2018, we had three teams of S2 girls participating in a Cyber-Security competition organised by the National Cyber Security Centre, part of GCHQ.
This provided a fun but challenging environment to encourage and inspire the next generation of young women to consider Computer Science as an option with a view to a future career in cyber security.
The girls gave up their lunchtimes and breaks within school as well as some of their own time in the evening to participate in this fun challenge, working as part of a team to solve some tricky problems
