This coming week students will be electing their school council. Students who wish to be part of the School Council will be expected to prepare a short speech, no longer than one minute, explaining why they are suitable for the post. The elections will take place next week. Alongside the School Council, students across the school have applied for numerous positions of responsibility including being a Prefect, a member of the Chaplaincy Team and Librarians. It is always wonderful to see our children being quite rightly proud of the positions they hold. Next week we will provide a full updated list of the all of the pupils.

Student Report by George Battenbough
In the first game of the season Cardinal Wiseman took on Bishop Walsh away and came back with a 3-0 victory.
Cardinal started the game positively, keeping possession and playing good attacking football.
George Battenbough opened the scoring with a powerful solo goal; a pile-driver after less than 15 minutes from outside the box. Moments later Callum Brookes split the home defence with a through ball to Ben Campbell but the shot was straight at the keeper.
Ryan Best teed up with Ben Campbell to deliver a beautiful ball to Jamie Capenhurst which was volleyed into the net.
After a change of ends Cardinal were still dominating possession when Ryan Best picked up the ball 20 yards out, beat his man and finessed it beyond the keeper. He dedicated his goal to Miss Nuttall’s twins, with a baby celebration. Cardinal had many chances to score more but did not capitalise on their opportunities.
