On Wednesday 27th March, 14 girls from Year 9 attended a Girls into STEAM day at Leicester College. The day was designed to inspire girls to consider a further career (or education) in a STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Maths) related subject. Split across 3 different areas (Construction, Accounting and Motor Vehicles) the girls enjoyed some hands on experience and practical skills that they may not have previously considered.
Eight members of the Board of Trustees have spent the day in school today,
meeting with leaders, staff and students looking at strategic priorities.
On Tuesday 26th March 2019, 10 students were given the opportunity to participate

The atmosphere was fantastic, and even better with a 5 – 0 win!
Brookvale Groby Learning Campus Year 10 boys rugby team retained the County Plate title that they won previously in Year 9. The game was played in tough conditions at Leicester Forest RFC against a decent John Fernley side. However, we managed to string some excellent phases of rugby together to outscore our opponents by 8 tries to 2. Tom Allen opened the scoring, with Luis Parry and Sam Jacques (2) adding to this in the first half. Sam Jacques scored another two tries in the second half with Luis Parry scoring again after a free flowing move that started in our own 22. Zak Golding completed the scoring with a well worked try and Tom Allen finished with 4 conversions for a final score of 48-12.
Well done boys!

A huge achievement by a great team!
