MTS Parents to Tackle Dallaglio Cycle Slam for Charity
Merchant Taylors’ parents Steve Faulkner-Atkinson and Martin Smith plan to undertake the Dallaglio Cycle Slam 2018 to raise money for a programme of rugby to transform the aspirations of young people aged 14-17 at increased risk of long-term unemployment, criminality and imprisonment.
Martin is one of only 30 riders, including Lawrence Dallaglio himself, who will tackle the whole 3 week route through the French and Swiss Alps, the Italian Lakes and finishing along the stunning Croatian coastline to Split and Steve will tackle the mountainous Alps stage.
They need our help to raise much needed funds!

Year 5 Skier Bella Ranked 5th in UK U/10’s
Bella belongs to Ambition race team which is linked to the GBR Snow Sport England and mostly trains at the Chill Factore in Manchester on Tuesday evenings and Sunday mornings at 6am.
Since October last year Bella has been training with Ambition in Austria, Leogang. Ambition has a house for the ski team to live in during training season, Haus Tirol, which is where Bella recently stayed for the first time and really enjoyed training full time with her team. Bella’s day involved starting training at 8am on the slopes and then attending school from 2-5pm.
On the 3rd of February Bella and the Ambition team left Leogang in Austria to travel to the Alpine championships in Bormio Italy. Bella and the team left very early and the journey took around 6 hours.
Ambition racing won the English Alpine Championships as a team which is fantastic. Bella had two slalom races and is now ranked 5th in the UK for the under 10’s which is an amazing achievement!

Mandarin and Art Group Visit Terracotta Exhibition
On Wednesday 7th March, Mrs Blagbrough and Miss McWatt led a successful trip, taking the Mandarin Group and Art Group to visit the Terracotta Exhibition, held at the World Museum in Liverpool. Everyone was very excited, as this special event has come to the North West for the first time in 12 years!
The students were thoroughly amazed by the delicate displays and the fine selection of statues, armour and bronze ware dating from over 2,500 years ago. Whilst the students were given the opportunity to appreciate the fine art and craftsmanship, they were also fascinated by the rich history, philosophy and ancient Chinese beliefs.
