This Week's Social!
Ahoy,
thanks to all the students and teachers who came along to the British Museum on Friday, it was great fun checking out the mummies and whathaveyou together. I'll post a few photos on the facebook page soon.
This week we're going bowling! There have been a few changes to our plans: it is now on FRIDAY, and at Queens Bowling Lanes. However, to make it easy-peasy for you to find it, we are going to meet at Rose of York after afternoon lessons have finished, and then at 4.15 go together on the tube to the bowling alley, which is only a few stops away on the circle line. If you want to make your own way there, you can meet us at the bowling alley just before 5 p.m. (the postcode of the alley is W2 4QP).
It'll cost about £7, for any more details you can ask me (Joe), or have a look at the posters which will be appearing around the school shortly.
See you on Friday!

April 2011 Social Events!!!!
Spring has arrived!
The sun has come out (London got close to a baking 28 degrees c last weekend!), people are starting to stagger out blinking into the streets after the long hibernation of winter, and here at Rose of York we've prepared a smörgåsbord of exciting events to keep students and staff busy.
Friday the 15th of April saw the return of the hallowed tradition that is 'mid-term pub night' at our local boozer, the 'Pontefract Castle' pub. Everyone was keen to unwind after the stress and strain of the mid-term exams, and a great crowd of people piled into the basement alcoves of the pub to drink, chat and make merry. Check out the photos on Rose of York's facebook page, or on the photo section of the official website that probably linked you here.
As you may already know, last Sunday (the 24th of April) was Easter, and so both Friday and Monday either side of it were bank holidays. We commemorated the season with a bombastic scavenger hunt on Thursday the 21st of April, that saw students spilling into the streets in order to gather clues, spot landmarks, and collect items. The winners received chocolate, as did the losers. A great time was had by all, and the scavenger hunt looks set to become an annual tradition. Photos are on the website and facebook page, as with the pub trip.
We'd love to know what you would like to see in future social events, why not get in touch? You can do so either by posting a comment here, or through the facebook page. Let us know what you want to see!
There will be a few select photos arriving here as well over the next few days, so visit back and check it out!
Bye for now. :-)
