“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.

Quiz drama!
‘Smarties and Lillie’ (Millie and Abigail - and Google) win the quiz by ONE point. However, after their disqualification for cheating (photo evidence attached) ‘The Hills are Green’ are crowned the quiz winners, despite some claims of a conspiracy.
Whilst there was no prize, justice has been served and Miss Hill and Miss Green are happy to have won with a clear conscience 🏆 #LowtonSki2020
Quiz time on the coach. Some interesting answers so far 🤔
Millie and Abigail are automatically disqualified for cheating 📱 #lowtonski2020
On Thursday the key stage 3 and key stage 4 boys badminton teams competed in the Wigan finals night after winning through the Leigh leagues. The boys showed in spells that they could compete but unfortunately neither team managed to top their group and get into the final.
After a few hours sleep we’ve just had a quick pit stop at the services for 🥐 and ☕️
We’re now back on the road for the next stretch of our journey #Lowton2020

We’ve stopped off for a toilet break just outside of London. The Year 8 girls were contemplating swapping the coach for a Spider-Man sports car before realising they wouldn’t get very far 🚗 #LowtonSki2020
Lessons in the Limelight - PE with Mr Wilson
Mr Wilsons Year 9 GCSE PE class have just completed their volleyball and trampolining units of work. In trampolining a large number of pupils can perform all of the advanced skills and they now have 2 years to perfect the techniques and improve the fluency of their routines. Charlie Longford was star of the week for the quality of his routine.
Quick stop at the services for some tea. Second McDonald’s of the day for some! #LowtonSki2020
It’s nearly time for #LowtonSki2020 ⛷❄️
We hope that all of our skiers are feeling excited for tomorrow!
Keep an eye on the page as we aim to bring you updates throughout the week.
It’s definitely fair to say that we are going to stand out in our hoodies this year!
Out of School Success!
Benjamin Finneran (7W1) has just returned from a fantastic week training and competing at Gracie Barra Huntington Beach in California!
In the competition Ben had a fantastic first match, winning his in under 30 seconds by arm bar submission! Unfortunately, despite making many attacks and attempts to advance he lost his second fight to a very difficult referees decision and he just missed out on his medal place on the podium in the quarter-finals.
The school and Ben's family are very proud of his achievements, especially as this is Ben's first year in this belt division. Everyone is looking forward to next year and seeing how Ben continues to improve!

Year 7 Football
At the start of the second round of fixtures the year 7 football team sat joint top of the table. The boys started the first game eager to remain at the top but despite dominating possession and creating numerous chances they came up against an inspired goalkeeping performance and combined with some wasteful finishing the game finished 0-0.
In the next match the scoreline reflected the quality of the team performance as Lowton ran out 5-0 winners. Noel Gardner solved the goalscoring problems by bagging a hat trick. Joe Marsh thundered in an unstoppable shot but the goal of the game went to Ryan Bayona who fired in a rocket from 25 yards that went in off the crossbar.
Unfortunately the final game went the same as the first to leave the title challenge out of our own hands. Although the results were not what everyone was hoping for the performances were extremely pleasing and if they can repeat this in the final round of fixtures and other results go their way they could still sneak the title.
