The first week in November means one thing - International Week! This week celebrates the rich culture within our school, and is organised by the International Committee. We have had the opportunity to sample a wide variety of food - from paella to bratwurst. To mark the occasion, during assembly, Year 11 pupils Kosi and Nicki, shared their experience as international students at Worksop College.
As Black History Month drew to a close, we wanted to round-up the celebrations and commemorations with a showcase of our student's work. Art work, poetry, musical performances, history projects - a whole host of wonderful pieces to reflect the event. We were especially blown away by Kosisochukwu's, Year 11, creative writing. It cleverly and beautifully draws comparisons between the continent of Africa and an injured fox.

Read Clarissa's essay below.
