It wouldn’t have been Shrove Tuesday without our pupils making pancakes! KS4 hospitality club were given the choice - American or traditional crepes - and made some delicious creations! https://t.co/oYV7hAHDnN

We hope you enjoyed making pancakes this week! For some, now give up something we enjoy until Easter. It's always a good time to give up unhealthy habits, or take on healthy ones. If you can sustain an activity for more than 21 days it can become a lifelong habit. https://t.co/qWPeGG6Thq
