At the beginning of lockdown we launched the Studley Masterchef Competition. The competition proved very popular and it was lovely to see entries flooding in from both pupils and staff. Mr Prince, the school catering manager, judged all entries and this year’s winner and the 2020 Studley Masterchef champion is Chloe-Anne F, Year 8. Congratulations to Chloe-Anne, who made a range of delicious tapas, and she is also the winner of a £10 Love 2 Shop voucher. Also a big well done to this year’s runners up, Kimi and Ollie, who submitted a very entertaining entry and whose fajita dish was highly commended. In the staff competition, Mrs McKenna was crowned champion.
Congratulations to everyone who entered the poetry competition. What a talented bunch of writers we have here at Studley High School! The poems varied from thoughtful reflection on the experience of lockdown, our world and how it has changed, to celebrating the wonderful key workers as well as the lighter-hearted moments this time has also brought. They were all a pleasure to read.

At Studley High School we currently have over a hundred students who receive instrumental lessons with one of our team of visiting teachers every week. Since we’ve all been at home students have had to miss out on their lessons, preparation for grade exams and group rehearsals. But now this has changed and some of our teachers have been able to adapt their teaching to allow for online video lessons to take place with our students. Parents of our students are directly in contact with our teachers, organising lessons and resources so that learning can continue remotely for as long as necessary.
If you are interested in your child starting or continuing music tuition, please don’t hesitate to get in touch with us at school: office@studleyhighschool.org.uk
Here we have Mr Davis (Guitar and Ukulele), Mrs Hattersley (Brass) and Mrs Fowler (Vocals).

Cooking is a skill you might find you have much more time to practice at the moment. It’s an important life skill and also it can be good for your mental health, it is something that you can do as a family too! It can be good for your physical health too as long as you try to make sure you aim to cook healthier foods more often.
I will try and post a new newsletter every few weeks so please keep an eye out for it.
Keep calm and keep cooking 😊
Mrs Vaughan
