We are excited to announce the launch of our new Law and Politics Societies! This week Mr Hone, Mrs Walkden and Mrs Fairhurst heard inspiring presentations from students applying to be the societies’ founding members. Each student brought their ideas to life with incredible enthusiasm, vision, and passion, making the selection process a truly difficult one!
Orchestra of the Swan rehearsals
Year 11, 12 and 13 Music students visited Warwick School this week to watch the Orchestra of the Swan rehearse for their evening concert in Warwick Hall.
On arrival they were treated to a rendition of the main theme from ‘Psycho’, a piece which uses a range of special effects on the strings, followed by ‘Morning’ from Grieg’s ‘Peer Gynt suite’.
This was a great opportunity for students to experience a live orchestra and we hope to take other Myton students to future rehearsals.
The Bee Team
The Bee Team is Myton’s club for students keen to help bees. We are busy planning a Big Bee Event but we need the Myton community’s help please! We would be very grateful for donations of any items that we can sell or give as prizes for various competitions (preferably bee themed but not necessarily). If you have any donations, please drop these into the main reception labelled for the attention of Mr Hobbs or give him a buzz at [email protected].
Any students interested in joining The Bee Team should come to S1 on Wednesday lunch times.
