Mr C Bohills

Welcome to Saints John Fisher and Thomas More Catholic Humanities College. I hope that you find the pictures, information and links interesting and of use.

Our Humanities College is a Voluntary Aided College of 750 students and 90 staff. We serve the community of Pendle and in each year group about 20% are from other Christian denominations or other faiths

As a specialist Humanities College, visual and performing arts comprise another vibrant part of our curriculum. Art, music and drama are undertaken by all pupils in KS3, and by many students who choose these subjects in KS4.

Self-expression, confidence, communication skills, teamwork, role play and imagination are boosted through this work, and many young people produce work of great beauty and prowess.

At Fisher More we are justifiably proud of our inclusivity. Pupils with special educational needs are expertly cared for by the SENCO and her large team of learning support staff.

"Students with special educational needs and / or disabilities make good progress and achieve well"

All pupils do physical education, which is very popular as a curriculum subject and beyond the timetabled day.

Our school teams, both boys and girls, enjoy high success rates locally, regionally and even nationally.

Theme of the week - Pentecost

Week 31    Prayer resources

News week ending 17th May 2013

Can we issue our apologies to anyone trying to contact the school after the bank holiday last week.  A major computer problem meant we had no phones for either incoming or outgoing calls and no computer access at all.  Thanks to the hard work of our IT department the problem is now fixed and normal service has resumed!

 
We are very proud of our Young Enterprise team who won the regional final at Turf Moor.  They now go forward to the North West finals of the competition which take place at Manchester airport in June. 
 
GCSE exams commenced on Monday and we wish all those involved all the very best for their exams and their future career paths.  Exams taking place next week are:  Mon 21st - English Lit. (am), Biology (pm), Thurs 23rd Chemistry (am), English Lit (pm), Fri 24th Music (am), Business Studies (am).
 
The popular “salad bar” has returned to the dining room at lunchtimes.  Pupils can help themselves to a large bowlful for just £1.
 
Congratulations to Tina who is now officially recognised as our Chaplain (after 11 years in the job) after a service at Salford Cathedral.
 
Leavers’ Mass took place last Friday for all our Year 11 pupils to celebrate their time at Fisher More. 
 
14 pupils from Year 10 enjoyed a field trip to the Lake District last weekend, accompanied by Mr Reeves and Miss Bolton.  A second group are completing their field work this weekend.
 
Year 8 pupils will leave for Castlerigg  Manor this afternoon for their weekend retreat, returning Sunday.

YEAR 6 INDUCTION DAY

DATE CHANGE
 
Please note that we have recently found out that proposed industrial action by teacher unions has been scheduled to take place on Thursday 27 June.  This was to be the planned Common Transfer Day for all schools in Pendle.   We have therefore had to change the date for our Year 6 Induction Day to Wednesday 26 June.  Pupils will spend the day with us from 9.00am until 3.30pm.  Parents are invited to the Information Evening at 7.00pm on the same date.  All parents will be receiving an information pack in the next couple of weeks from their primary school.
 
Thank you very much and apologies for any inconvenience caused.
