“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.

Well Lowton students it is officially your Easter holidays! Although not the Easter that many of us had planned, all of the Lowton staff hope that you enjoy some relaxing family time.
Students do not need to do lessons unless they want to but we would like you to stay creative and healthy by cooking, drawing, reading and exercising. We thought some students and their younger family members may like to make a COVID-19 time capsule to let future generations know what this time was like. You can find the printable version here: tiny.cc/odkfmz
If you have a go at this then we would love to see them!
We will stay in touch on here for any important information and we would love you to stay in touch too, sharing as usual to hillk@lowtonhs.wigan.sch.uk to be in contention for the vouchers.
Our Lessons from the Living Room and Lowton Stay at Home Challenge features will be taking a short break but will resume after half term. Thank you for all of your contributions so far. We have received plenty of entries this week that we have not yet posted on our page. These will be on the page following half term, along with any items that we receive over Easter. In the meantime, staff will be practicing for the next challenge and wondering who will be brave enough to take us on!
Happy holidays! 🐰 🍫 🌱
Thank you to those who had a go at our second Lowton Stay at Home Challenge!
Mrs Radford has spoken and the winner has been chosen!
A special mention goes to Isabelle who made us laugh and Lena with her hopeful message. Jack was quick off the mark and very creative. Katie looked as though she was having lots of fun and Francesca flexed her IT skills. It was lovely to see Callum shaking his stuff, it reminded Mrs Radford of his dancing to Fitness Marshall. However, Harry was imaginative, creative and we're sure we've all appreciated the extra time in bed. Credit also goes to Harry's Auntie Dan who is an ex Lowton student.
Therefore, the winner of our second challenge is Harry Kerboas. Well done Harry, you will receive a £10 voucher when we return to school.
Here is Harry's winning entry: Harry Kerboas - Lowton Stay at Home Challenge 2
Our next Lowton challenge will go live after the holidays on Monday 20th April. All we'll say for now is get your aprons ready...
Lessons from the Living Room - Religious Studies
Here is some fantastic work by Olivia Sewell (Y8). Olivia has written some very detailed diary entries, one about witnessing Jesus' baptism. Olivia's mum sent this work in stating how proud she is of Olivia. It has not been easy for Olivia as her mum works for the NHS and has had barely any time to help guide her through her work. Despite this, Olivia has done a sterling job simply getting on with it and produced excellent work like the work shown here. Well done, Olivia!

Some of our key worker students helped to improve the school grounds today by tidying up and weeding the Olympic rings, giving the bug hotel a spring clean and they also made some magnificent hanging baskets. The weather was lovely. They enjoyed the fresh air. The students also had the chance to look at the frog spawn in the pond. It won't be long before we have tadpoles in there! The plants were from Moss Bank Nurseries in Leigh. www.mossbanknurseries.co.uk (They are still doing deliveries so please support this local business who have always provided beautiful plants).
Lessons from the Living Room - Food Technology
Benjamin Wadsworth (Y10) cooked a delicious rack of lamb with a pea and herb crust, minty mash and vegetables for his Mum and Step Dad's wedding anniversary. Benjamin's mum commented that normally they would have gone out for a nice meal in a restaurant, but because they couldn’t Benjamin cooked this lovely meal and that it was absolutely delicious. Well done Benjamin, after being so tasty this could potentially become a tradition!

Josh Hayes (Y7) has made this wonderful tea stained poster on William the Conqueror. Josh evaluated whether William was a successful leader or not before considering if life really changed after the Norman invasion. Great work Josh!
