Today, the Clarkson CHS Community farewell a beloved member of staff, Penny Rickerby.
Penny was a valued and much-loved member of the Clarkson Team for 25 years. She worked tirelessly as our Lab Technician and will be remembered for her kindness and willingness to help others.
It's Science Week, and today we ran our annual STEM event for our local primary schools called The Clarkson Challenge.
This year the theme was "Minecraft Sustainable Cities". Teams of students from Clarkson, Merriwa and Somerly Primary Schools came to learn about what makes a sustainable city, then designed and built their cities in their own Minecraft worlds.
Each team presented their cities to a panel of judges, and the winning team won free tickets to Sci-Tech, and the Clarkson Challenge trophy!
