Our students get in on the Sister Act
Last Tuesday, 60 GCSE Drama students from Y9, Y10 and Y11 saw a production of ‘Sister Act’ at Brighton Theatre Royal. This was a really fun show, which had us clapping along to the upbeat music and laughing at Dolores trying to adjust to living as a nun. We particularly enjoyed the comical antics of the villains.
Ella P says: The show was INCREDIBLE! The lights, in particular, were just stunning throughout the entire performance and were used in such a dynamic way to create a moving piece that entertained all. And it’s safe to say I’ll be taking notes for my next performance!

Primary fun @ Harlands
Last week a group of ex-Harlands students had a wonderful morning visiting their old school, helping students with their 'mission' project. It was amazing to see how much they have progressed (and grown!), and their old teachers were thrilled to see them.

YEAR 10 TASTER DAY AT BHASVIC
BHASVIC is holding a Year 10 Taster Day on Monday July 8th. This is an opportunity to experience a day in the life of a sixth form college student. You will attend lessons in a range of A level and Level 3 BTEC subjects, be introduced to what it means to be a Level 3 learner, and access the college's facilities at breaks and lunchtime. The day is designed to provide a positive and inspiring experience, motivating students with their GCSE studies through Year 11 and also leading to an application to BHASVIC this coming Autumn. It can be helpful in deciding which subjects to study at Level 3 and whether BHASVIC is the right environment for you.
Please note that this is the Monday of the Warden Park Year 10 Work Experience week but any students wishing to attend are permitted to do so, they just need to source a 4 day Work Experience placement from Tuesday to Friday.
