Brooke Weston Academy hosted 40 Governors from across the Brooke Weston Trust schools for an intensive day of training and development, including whole cohort sessions and more informal afternoon workshops, one led by Principal Pete Kirkbride.
Conrad Dickinson was guest speaker at Brooke Weston Academy’s Prize Giving where he told students and staff how his love of adventure started early and progressed to him being the first and only Briton to complete the Polar ‘Grand Slam’ travelling unsupported to both North and South Poles, as well as leading a team to Siberia. More recently he was part of the ‘Walk with the Wounded’ team, including Prince Harry and wounded servicemen, who trekked to the South Pole.
A dozen students from Brooke Weston Academy had the experience of a lifetime, climbing mountains in Tanzania and trekking with the Maasai. As part of their 21-day adventure the students also built a classroom in a local school and had a day-long safari, as well as time for rest and relaxation at a beach resort.
Brooke Weston Academy was delighted to host Mr David Laing, the Lord Lieutenant of Northamptonshire, who visited to congratulate our Year 12 students on the excellent GCSE exam results they achieved this summer.
