“You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on a stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.”
(Matthew 5:14-16 NIV)
The Governors and staff of Lowton Church of England High School are committed to the provision of a high quality education in a Christian context. We aim to provide a school where we can live out our ethos of Caring, Learning and Succeeding on a daily basis and let our light shine. At the heart of the commitment is the notion of the uniqueness and infinite worth of the individual, that every person is valuable in the eyes of God and that they are, indeed, the light of the world.

Lessons in the Limelight - Science with Mrs Critchley
Mrs Critchley was very impressed with the work produced by Elysia Gatt, Summer Wood, Nikolay Karacholev and Isabelle Jones from her Year 8 class during their isolation period. The students had to use their imagination and describe their own newly discovered element before making a model.

Year 11 have been focusing on a rates of reaction required practical in lessons. Students completed the practical, drew a graph from the results, and then analysed the results.
Even though our key stage 3 classes couldn’t be in school with us on Remembrance Day it didn’t stop them from making their own Remembrance Day tributes and displaying them proudly in their homes. Here are some fantastic examples from Mrs Heaton's Year 7 groups, Mrs Sutherland's Year 7 groups, Miss Hill's Year 8 groups and Mrs Barker's Year 9 groups - Well done all!

Lessons in the Limelight - Maths with Mr Bennett
After half term Year 8 have been as keen as ever to get back to their studies. Recently they did a recap on all the topics covered in this unit and excelled! Great work everyone.
Lessons in the Limelight - English with Ms Foulds
Ms Foulds' Y10 class have completed their key assessment this week. They have been studying the character of Macbeth and exploring how his character is revealed to the audience in the opening act. The students have had to learn a wide range of new vocabulary to deal with this tricky text, including hamartia, protagonist, soliloquy. Good work Y10!
Like many of our students, Maisie Jones (8W1) has found recent times tough. However, being able to get back to her hobbies of dance and gymnastics (although currently on pause again) and regain skills that she had lost has really helped her confidence.
Maisie hopes that everyone else finds the thing that makes them happy and uses it to help them through the next few weeks and months. Great advice, Maisie!
In this video we share images of our Remembrance Day silence accompanied by a performance from Miss Haworth and Mr Smith.

They had a great time in the wooded environment, learning how to build dens, rope swings, chop wood, sharpen tools, make campfires and cook safely on a campfire. The team also took part in a talent competition which they created and managed to rope in Wiremu and Vicky, our Resident Artist from Bubble Up to take part! We saw Sam singing, Hayden's magic show and many other entertaining acts. During the day, an inspiring art workshop was also provided. Here, the children made some excellent creations and were able to participate in a session of clay modelling and painting.
Luckily we were not in a lockdown period at the time so all were able take part in this exciting educational activity. The weather was kind to the Year 7 and the heavy rain only arrived just before the children finished for the day. The group had a marvellous day where many strong bonds and friendships were formed. Mrs Thorpe and Wiremu were extremely impressed with this group of delightful young people, as were staff from Nature's Den and Vicky from the Bubble Up project.
We look forward to having more opportunities with this project work in the future.
