  • Year 13 student Thomas secures artwork feature in Royal Academy of Arts exhibition

    Published 08/05/24

    The Visual Art department is delighted to announce that we have just been informed by the Royal Academy that Thomas Atkinson (Year 13) has had his work accepted into both the online exhibition and also the in-house summer exhibition at the Royal Academy itself. 31 students from CCS sent in artworks to the competition (which is the largest number to date) and we would like to thank them all for producing such lovely work and participating in this event. Over 21,500 young people nationally submitted work for the Youth Summer Show this year.

    This is a huge achievement for Thomas, and we are incredibly proud of him. This is the second time that Thomas has managed to be accepted by the Royal Academy; the first time was to participate in the “attRAct” one-year online program of study, which he completed last year.

    The youth exhibition at the Royal Academy will run from 16th July – 11th August and Thomas’ work will be viewed by thousands of people worldwide online and also in person.

    Well done Thomas!

  • Year 6 - Cross Country success

    Published 25/01/24

    Freya began her journey only a little over a year ago, competing in cross country and on the track with the summer highlight becoming the 600m U11 girls County Champion. 

    Freya exhibited exceptional performance and won in the South Northants and Daventry District Schools Cross Country Championships for Year 6. Despite facing challenges in the Northants County Schools Championships, where both Years 6 and Year 7 participated, Freya displayed remarkable resilience. Following an early incident where she was pushed and fell to the ground, she navigated through a 2.6km muddy and hilly course, strongly finishing in 16th place and earning her county selection.

    She will be competing in the upcoming competition on 3rd February for the inter-counties Anglian Cup. It's wonderful to see Freya's dedication and sportsmanship throughout these events, and we can't wait to see all that she does. Congratulations to Freya on her achievements!
