School Traditions
Each year, the school holds it annual sports day at Corby Triangle near Rockingham where it displays almost all popular track and field disciplines. Sport's day also includes the final of the inter-tutor Tug of War competition. Sports Day is highly popular for students, and each tutor group in a year competes against each other to gain the most points and win the trophy. Tutor groups also participate in inter-tutor football and rounders/netball each year.
Brooke Weston holds an annual prizegiving in September of each year, celebrating the achievements of the students for the previous academic year. Prizes are awarded in each year for all subjects, student of the year, and also recognition for academic success in GCSE and A Level.

Famous quotes containing the words school and/or traditions:
“I seemed intent on making it as difficult for myself as possible to pursue my “male” career goal. I not only procrastinated endlessly, submitting my medical school application at the very last minute, but continued to crave a conventional female role even as I moved ahead with my “male” pursuits.”
—Margaret S. Mahler (1897–1985)
“I think a Person who is thus terrifyed [sic] with the Imagination of Ghosts and Spectres much more reasonable, than one who contrary to the Reports of all Historians sacred and profane, ancient and modern, and to the Traditions of all Nations, thinks the Appearance of Spirits fabulous and groundless.”
—Joseph Addison (1672–1719)
