On Tuesday 14th May, the Reception children and staff went on a wonderful day out to Chester Zoo. Here, the children took part in the 'Curious Creatures' workshop! Read more about what they got up to:

'Wirral on the Home Front' was the title of the latest lecture given to the prep as a part of the Boumphrey Lecture Series. The lecture was delivered by Ian Boumphrey, the inaugural speaker of the series, and is a part of the wider 'Inspiring Talks Series.' Click here to read Head of Prep, Harry FitzHerbert's account:

Every year the UK's creative industries contribute £92 billion to the economy. At our ‘Media and Arts Career Conference,’ students got the chance to speak to experts and gain advice on what they can do to make it in this competitive sector.

We were delighted to welcome Old Birkonian Chris Rice back to the school to give the latest lecture in the Boumphrey Lecture Series. Chris is the Global Strategy Director for the marketing company Zero Degrees West. He inspired the children with his exciting work including the material he and his team had put together for films such as Spider Man!

The annual production is always a highlight of the school year and this year's 'West Side Story' spectacular was no exception. The cast of students from years 7-13 captivated audiences night after night with their professional dancing, acting and singing.

 

We are delighted to have been selected to exhibit students' work in this year's 'Fresh Perspectives' exhibition at the Lady Lever Art Gallery in Port Sunlight.  The exhibition runs from 29th March to 6th May 2019.

Co-operation and co-ordination between education providers and businesses was the topic of disucssion at the recent Wirral Chamber of Commerce 'In Business' event hosted at Birkenhead School.
