<strong>The</strong>se accessories are even being worn by celebrities. <strong>The</strong> jewellery all comes in many colours including<br />

pink, purple, silver, green, and many more for only £2-£3 for the bangles and £4 per pair for the<br />

earrings and choker necklaces; so there is something for you whatever your taste. <strong>The</strong>y are all made<br />

by Catherine Bennett, 51 and her daughters. Catherine, a breast cancer survivor is an Ambassador for<br />

breast cancer and started off aiming <strong>to</strong> raise only a few hundred pounds but now is aiming for £3,000.<br />

To find out more about this great cause visit www.breakthrough.org.uk/ ask Mrs Rigby or Mrs Barry<br />

Gallardo. Also, <strong>to</strong> help Catherine and the cause, you can donate ring pulls or even ribbon <strong>to</strong> help for<br />

making the jewellery, in the jars around the school. Over £2800 worth of these bracelets have been<br />

sold already and even Peter Crouch and Abi Clancy are wearing them so get ahead of the trend and<br />

buy one now! Details of where, when and from whom <strong>to</strong> buy these bracelets will be given soon, but<br />

if you would like <strong>to</strong> purchase one sooner, ask Mrs Rigby.<br />

Do you recognise this owl? This is Oscar, the<br />

Sixth Form mascot. He goes on all the trips<br />

with Sixth Form students; this month he went<br />

<strong>to</strong> Bath and <strong>The</strong> Northern College of Music.<br />

He is always helping the girls and even the<br />

teachers remember things for their travels.<br />

Oscar has helpful notes for the girls <strong>to</strong> use for<br />

work and other important things. Notes range<br />

from helpful school life tips <strong>to</strong> handy study<br />

revision guides. Typically, Oscar reminds sixth<br />

formers <strong>to</strong> remember their manners, tips for<br />

trips and never forget <strong>to</strong> buy Mr (Sir Leader)<br />

Lucas an apple pie from McDonalds!<br />

Not just the Head Girl and her team use<br />

Oscar’s tips, oh no! All of the Sixth Former<br />

students use his helpful reminders and ideas.<br />

He is not just a teddy owl he is a very helpful<br />

sidekick <strong>to</strong> defeat those awful study tasks<br />

and hard work frustration. You can find Oscar<br />

in the Sixth Form office; pay him a visit <strong>to</strong>day!<br />
