The Golden Sport

STOP PRESS.......STOP PRESS.....STOP PRESS......


Oxfordshire U19 Football league

The Cooper school :2    Wheatley Park 0

On Wednesday 20th February, our first ever post 16 football team, led admirably by the captain James Allen, took an amazing victory against Wheatley Park in the league. Wheatley Park have been previous championship winners and this was a hard won victory by our boys. Extensive cardio-vascular treatment supported the development of Tom Bosley and ensured his driving role in the game. Jake Fuller is also developing his passing skills, much to the relief of the rest of the team.

Looking resplendent in their new royal blue kit, the students from both Year 12 and Year 13 battled the giant of Wheatley Park and are still currently heady with victory.

The Post16 centre is buzzing much anticipation is in the Post 16 centre as the fans amass in preparation for the next game. Cheer leaders rehearsing, managing strategic planning and even Mrs Mall will be there to support, cheer and hopefully celebrate!

Post 16 Trips

Auschwitz

Last week, the Year 12 History students spent 4 days in Krakow, Poland visiting the memorial site for the Holocaust at Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp. As Nazi Germany is one of the main units for the AS examination, this visit was able to provide the students with detailed insight and experience of the terrible consequences of the Nazi regime. Our thanks go to the History department for enabling this opportunity for Year 12 students: Mrs Roberts-Ablett, Mrs Winwood & Mr Dean. The staff have commented that the year 12 students were a credit to the school throughout

Madrid

This week A level Art students are going on a trip to Madrid to study the Art & Architecture of this beautiful and fascinating city. I look forward enormously to seeing the work produced by the students. The work from the Venice trip last year was stunning and I am sure this trip will be an inspiration for the Art students. Once again, we thank the Art department for their time and support of the students.
