The Parents’ Association is working with the Music Department to organise an evening of music from stage and screen. This will be on Saturday 6th March starting at 7.30pm (bar opens at 7.00pm) with a cabaret performed by the team from Movies and Musicals (www.moviesandmusicals.co.uk). They are professional musicians who have performed in a number of the West End shows that will be included in the programme. The evening performance will be preceded by an afternoon workshop with a group of St Bart’s students. To find out more, including how to book tickets please click here.

At its first meeting of 2009 the l Parents’ Association presented Headteacher Stuart Robinson with a cheque for £22,924.00. The funds will be used to pay for a wide range of items requested by departments at the school, including costumes for the dance department, a printing press, computers, microscopes, cameras, equipment for the school’s Duke of Edinburgh Awards scheme and games for the after school club. The total includes a contribution of £2000 towards an Ad Lucem book fund, which will acquire new books for the library in the new St Bart’s building, and £2000 towards a sculpture project, also related to the new school.

Stuart Robinson said he was delighted that the Parents’ Association members hard work had resulted in such a significant contribution to school funds, adding that the items that would be bought would make a real difference to students.

During the meeting Andrew Cooper completed his term as PA chairman to be replaced by Richard Deal (holding cheque, on the left).
