Three Year 11 stu­dents, Oliver Boor­man, William Clough­ley and Danny Ken­nard were ‘Tam­pered Evi­dence’! They per­formed four ‘rock’ num­bers and brought the house down at the Win­ter Gar­dens as part of the enter­tain­ment for the Duke of Edin­burgh Award Pre­sen­ta­tion Evening on Thurs­day 28th March.

Spe­cial thanks to Mr Boor­man for all his tech­ni­cal assis­tance on the night with micro­phones and sound sys­tems. It was a great evening and I urge the cur­rent Year 11 D of E stu­dents who suc­cess­fully com­pleted their expe­di­tion sec­tions to get their other sec­tions com­pleted so we can have a smaller event after school one night next term to present their cer­tifi­cates and badges.

On Thurs­day 27 March 2014, a group of year 8 stu­dents joined together from King Ethel­bert and Dane Court Gram­mar School, to do a BBC school report. There were pod­casts, news­pa­pers and live broad­casts all made by us stu­dents. Nicola Wood, Sam Cut­ler Mck­enizie , Ben Mal­lory, Ellie Corn­wall and Reece Grieg all par­tic­i­pated in the live broad­cast a long side other Dane Court pupils. Joe Marsh and Ellie Corn­wall took con­trol of the news­pa­per report and the fin­ished prod­ucts are up on King Ethel­bert, Dane Court and BBC web­sites for every­one else to enjoy. We all had a lot of fun and have all got a lot more con­fi­dence. We never thought that we would end up on the BBC web­site. We were really proud of the fin­ished prod­uct.
We hope you enjoy it as much as we did!

See and hear the broad­casts
