• There’s no point doing volunteer work if you don’t earn any money, right? Vittoria Bello-Borges, Notre Dame School

  02-12-2021 19:57
  
  I’ve recently started volunteering at my local Oxfam shop and I can say it has been on of my most valuable experiences. Not only do I have more knowledge and familiarity in a working environment, which is a vital asset for the future, but my social skills have significantly improved. For instance, I have become confident in communicating with customers and the general public and I have pushed outside my comfort zone by meeting new people and making friendships with my colleagues.

• The Impact of Ballet

  02-12-2021 19:46
  
             I have done ballet for pretty much my whole life. I was shoved into a lesson at ‘First Steps Academy’(Fulham) at the age of three and I’ve stayed entranced by the art form ever since. Ballet can have some stigmas about how effective it actually is in helping your physical and mental health. It is usually seen as less challenging than a more conventional sport like rugby, and is bashed for giving young girls unrealistic body standard

• A review of The Lion King musical Vittoria Bello-Borges, Notre Dame School

  02-12-2021 19:35
  
  Watching The Lion King musical at the Lyceum Theatre in London was an experience I will most certainly never forget. From the moment I entered the theatre, the buzzing crowd filled me with adrenaline and as the curtain rose, a red light lit up the theatre, silencing all of us. The first song began and I immediately had goosebumps. The band played so powerfully and intensely that the songs seemed to bounce off the walls – it felt like I was in a dream and I hadn’t experienced anything

            During its course, the Fulham football team, originally known as the 'Church team', have been herded around most of South West London. They started in the location which is now the widely known as the ‘Hurlingham Club’ and during the coming years called Barn Elms, Parsons Green, Eel Brook common and Captain James Field their home.

• The Hub of Fulham Evie Jouning Putney High School

  02-12-2021 19:09
  
  For me, the South American influenced café Tinto, has always been the focal point of Fulham. From it’s opening time of 7am, to its uniquely late closing time (9pm) an array of characters can be found in Tinto, drawn to it like a moth to a flame. In the morning it is stumbled through by people who have just finished their morning run around bishops park, adorned in leggings and and quick drying T-shirt’s, they welcome the café’s new day. From late morning to aftern

• Life on a Temporary Site - Roshni Patel - Merstham Park School

  02-12-2021 17:49
  
  Attending a new school is a unique experience. My school is very different from normal schools. I go to Merstham park school, it is a new school that opened in summer 2018. I am part of the first year to attend it and have always been the oldest year group there. We have a temporary site which we work on and the new school building is due to be finished by September 2022. The school has faced many challenges and is still carrying on. One of them being the death of our beloved head teacher.

  As an A-Level Media student, my experience in researching various forms of media has become one of the most intriguing yet. Our modern world continues to vary, stretching a single idea into an industry worth billions. Many examples of concentrated ownership consist of the Big Six multi-media conglomerates (including Disney and Viacom), and we are now reaching into an age where media takes a different form, each second of the day.
