STUDENTS from Levenshulme High are leading the good life - after creating street planters brimming with flowers and vegetables.
Volunteers from the girls only school's gardening club have set up the planters in local streets in bid to brighten up their community.
Students from the gardening |
|
club, who have already grown broad beans and strawberries in their school allotment, team up with residents from the Levenshulme Community Association on the neighbourhood makeover.
Debbie Wallace, who organises the after-school group, said: "We set up the club last September and have created an |
|
allotment area where the girls can grow their own fruit and veg and other plants.
"We feel it's extremely important for the pupils to understand where their food comes from and experience the joy of growing their own fruit and vegetables. Making a positive impact in our local community is also very important to us." |

I am extremely
proud to be
Headteacher of
Levenshulme High School at
such an exciting time for the school.
With the opening of the new Crossley
Building we have outstanding facilities for Design Technology, Science, ICT and Modern Foreign Languages. The 83 year old Errwood Building has been refurbished and we have moved back into a school building technologically equipped to deliver 21st century education to our current and future students. We have extensive grounds which are being landscaped, ensuring that we will have wild life
areas, quiet and loud play areas as well
as an all-weather multi-purpose games
area, sports fields and the
Energy Box.

Dear Parent/Carer
I am writing to inform you that a mistake was made in the student planners stating that there was a staff training day on Monday 3rd June 2013. This is not correct. Year 11 will be sitting exams and all students will be expected to be in school on this day.
Sorry for any inconvenience caused. Term finishes on Monday 22nd July and all students are expected in school on this day. Tuesday 23rd July is an Inset day for staff only.
Yours sincerely
Amanda E. Thain

Dear Parent/ Carer
Shortly a revised off site visit procedure will be in place. In the past there have been occasions when parents and guardians have not completed the medical details.
In the future pupils will not be able to go on these off site visits unless the reply slip/consent form has been correctly completed including medical details and returned by the specified deadlines, initially if an incorrect form is handed in the pupil will be given 48 hours to correct it, or will lose the place. From September the correct forms must be handed in, in the first place and there will be no opportunity to produce a form at a later time. The reason for this is that the school has to complete a number of checks on the information given.
In a similar vein NO pupils will be allowed to leave the school site for medical and dental appointments unless we have seen an appointment card. We will no longer accept a telephone message. This is due to abuse of the system.
Please try not to make dental/doctor’s appointments in the school day as this seriously affects your daughter’s attendance.
Yours sincerely
Mrs A.Thain
