On Monday 8th July over 200 students and parents took part in our annual awards ceremony called Techfest.  In previous years we have run this event as an Oscars themed night celebrating work from films to art.  Fortunately due to the expanding use of technology at Wildern and in our local primary schools such as St James, Wellstead and Freegrounds Juniors we were delighted to be able to celebrate such a wider range of talents this year.  Students first got to enjoy the festival feel with candy floss, face painting and a range of exciting new techs to try like Virtual Reality.  After this, at the formal awards we recognised work in areas from website design, online tools like Google forms and gaming as well as the original categories like best movie. We also welcomed our visiting colleagues and students from the Silves Sul schools partnership in the Algarve and their contributions for the best international movie.

15 Silk Paintings from Wildern School Year 9 Art Students are being exhibited as part of the Schools art Exhibition this year in Winchester at the Children's Services Office.  Students study the patterns of Non Western Art and as part of this SOW develop their own design inspired by the motifs of a range of Non Western Cultures, their designs are also influenced by Mandalas and the concepts behind them.

On Tuesday 25th June we want as many students, teachers, parents and family members to join our Outrun Cancer Fun run to help us raise money. The money raised will be donated to The Brain Tumour Charity and to Brooke's family.  10 year old Brooke will be joining Wildern from Berrywood School in September and has recently been diagnosed with a tumour on her brain stem.  The money raised will go towards private/specialist treatment and towards general family support during this time.  

All MP's were given 500 trees to plant across their constituency as parts of the Queen's Canopy Trust.  Mims Davies selected Wildern as one of the places to plant her tree.  The students were very happy to help support with this environmental project.  

Congratulations to the new Year 10 prefects who were presented with their ties and badges this morning.
