School Multi-gym
The school has a new, refurbished multi-gym. The multi-gym, situated in G Block, is twice the size of the previous one, with a complete set of new machines. The gym is the first in Britain to utilise the new technology that enables pupils to play video games using dance mats, etc. and still be engaging in exercise. The multi-gym was opened on 12 October 2006, by ex-Portsmouth FC manager, Harry Redknapp.

Famous quotes containing the word school:
“A sure proportion of rogue and dunce finds its way into every school and requires a cruel share of time, and the gentle teacher, who wished to be a Providence to youth, is grown a martinet, sore with suspicions; knows as much vice as the judge of a police court, and his love of learning is lost in the routine of grammars and books of elements.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
