Jamie's American Roadtrip...

I am looking forward to Jamie Oliver's new book and six-part series, Jamie's American Roadtrip, to be shown on Channel 4 this autumn. The series promises to be more than a straightforward cooking and travel series – as Jamie delves deep into the social issues and diverse cultures of 21st Century America.



A quote from The Times...
'There’s a poignant sense of the link between food and community, between what we eat and who we are. In New York, he ducks past the hot dogs to meet the city’s more recent immigrants: Peruvians making ceviche in illicit backstreet cafes; Egyptians making new versions of traditional flatbreads. In the Deep South, he meets the custodians of soul food. “I used to think soul food was like ‘Funkay!’,” he says, clicking his fingers. “‘It’s got pizzazz, it’s got flay-veur.’ But its heart is so sad'.



Starts 1st September on Channel 4.

New Culture Club logo!

Geography, History, RS and Modern Foreign Languages are proud to show off our new logo...it's all about culture! It is the creative works of Tana Nilasova in Year 9. Well done Tana!

If you attended the culture club trip to the London Eye last Saturday then you will have received your culture club membership card with this logo! This will entitle you to priority booking for the next culture trip, which will be on Saturday 13th December to Lille Christmas Market via the Eurostar link. There are over 50 stalls offering a vast range of local products and originial gifts. A stress free way to enjoy Christmas shopping! Return your consent forms to student services :)
