Prom Night 2013
A Night to Remember!
The Year 11 graduation took
place on Thursday 9th May, some
saying farewell to Woodrush High
School and beginning preparations for their final GCSE exams
this summer. The culmination of
the day was the much anticipated
Prom which once again took place
in the beautiful setting of the Lake
at Barston, West Midland Golf
Course.
The arrival of students to their Prom
is always an exciting time as they pull
up to the venue in their stretch limousines, vintage cars, Daimlers and this
year a Fire Engine. There was also a
promise of a helicopter but due to the
poor weather conditions this did not
take place.
Many students took the opportunity to
have official photos taken with friends
to remember their special night, enjoying lovely food before taking to the
dance floor. The nominated Prom King
and Queen were Jack N and Heather S,
who led the evenings dancing after the
form tutor gifts were given out.
The rain did not dampen
the spirits of year 11 and
they seemed to enjoy their
evening regardless and as
the evening progressed and
the rain stopped they were
able to make the most of the
lovely outside setting.
At 11:45pm staff
waved students off
on coaches that returned them safely
to school. Once
again it was a
lovely evening all
round. Hollywood
Coaches phoned
Woodrush the
following day
to say that our
students always
behave each
year, but this
year they were impeccable, very
polite and well mannered – an
absolute credit to Woodrush.

Community Farm
What a year! Last July I saw an opportunity to set up a social
enterprise in conjunction with the science department. I approached
Miss Parker and we applied for a grant from a fantastic organisation
called O2 think big; think big gives young people a chance to make
a positive impact in their local community in the form of a small
company. We successfully acquired the grant for a community farm consisting
of a number of chicken, vegetables and rabbits.
After Christmas as the weather began to improve we cleared our area,
built our coop and dug out ?????????????????)=???????????????????????????????????????)???????????????????????????????????????)??????????????????????????]???????????????)????????????????
