Blackpool Geography Fieldwork - 24th March 2026
As part of their WJEC Geography unit in Tourism, the entire Year 10 took a field trip to Blackpool to observe a popular UK tourist destination as part of their assessment criteria. Unfortunately like many British holidaymakers we were hampered by the bad weather but that didn't stop the pupils enjoying the arcades. During their visit to the arcade, pupils evaluated how accessible the environment was for visually impaired users, while also enjoying the rich sensory experience of the lights, sounds and interactive games.

St. Vincent's Football Video Editing
St Vincent's Football Match January 2026
Our Year 8 pupil has continued his interest in Video Editing and completed another fantastic video of our Saturday football team. Unfortunately, our team lost 1-0 against Bootle Bears but you can hear their critique of their performance on the school radio. We wish the team as well as their photographer and press officer a big good luck for this weekend.
The Great Debate 2026
A Year 10 pupil finished runner up out of 10 schools in the region competing in the Historical Associations 'Great Debate' which was held in LJMU's Student Life Building. This year's topic was 'How important are personal and public records as evidence for explaining the story, or stories, of your local area?'. He delivered his speech titled 'Remembering the Liverpool Blitz Victims' which was received well by the judges, and he just narrowly missed out to a pupil from The Bluecoat School in qualifying for the national finals.
St. Vincent's Football Video Editing
St Vincent's Football Match November 2025
A Year 8 pupil, pursued his interest in video editing and used our school camera to show off his impressive camera skills while filming our School football team on a Saturday morning. He carefully chose angles that captured the action clearly, keeping the players in frame even during fast-paced moments. He made sure to focus on key highlights, such as goals and tackles, so viewers could enjoy the excitement of the game. A big well done for this excellent homework.
School Debate Competition
Debate Competition July 2025
On the 10th July 2025 a group of our children took part in a debate hosted and supported by the Jackson Lees Group. The children celebrated and showed off their critical thinking, confidence and communication. The children expressed their ideas about 'Is Social Media a good or bad thing?' and 'Should we use force to bring about peace?'. A big well done to all involved.

Kitty's Launderette
Work Experience June 2025
On Friday 20th June a group of our pupils visited Kitty's in Anfield, a community Launderette, for work experience. We were warmly welcomed by the staff who showed us how the machines worked and some of our 'Grow Wild' pupils took part in a seed bomb making session, which was messy but really good fun! We helped to sort the clothes out by their colours and even loaded and unloaded washing machines and dryers. The pupils learned how it is important to be part of a community and we donated some of our plants from our school poly tunnel. We met all the staff and even visited parts of the launderette where shirts and jackets get dry cleaned by a big steam machine, it made some great sounds! The staff explained their daily routines and how they help all of their customers, everyone there really enjoyed working together as a team. We really loved our day out and we hope to visit again next year. Thank you to everyone at Kitty's.
