The March goes on! The baton has been all the way to Bury to visit Woodhey High School & Tottington High School.
In PE lessons, students marched, jumped, ran and rolled 100m each in both lessons to symbolise the distance between school and our next closest Trust school, Tottington High School.
'A highlight of the month was a joint GCSE PE moderation with Tottington, where all students participated and the baton was passed between the two schools'. Well done to everyone who participated!
