MTGS Girls Win the Salters’ Chemistry Competition

A huge congratulations must go to four Year 8 girls; Hannah Byrne, Emily Bangs, Ellie Topping and Chloe Wilson-Moore, who fought off serious competition from 25 schools to be crowned Salter Chemistry Competition winners of the North West which was this year held at Liverpool University. The Salters’ Festival has been partnered with the Royal Society of Chemistry since 2005 with the aim to provide the opportunity for students to spend a day in a university department to take part in practical fun chemistry activities. The girls performed exceptionally well and were a credit to the school.

Our Year 8 Spanish pupils enjoyed a fantastic visi Our Year 8 Spanish pupils enjoyed a fantastic visit to Tapas Tapas recently, where they sampled a delicious range of traditional dishes, including patatas bravas and paella. 

The visit gave pupils a wonderful opportunity to practise their language skills in a real-world setting while experiencing authentic Spanish cuisine. And of course, the churros for dessert went down a treat! A fantastic cultural and culinary experience for all involved.
We were incredibly proud of our Lower School Choir We were incredibly proud of our Lower School Choir, Cambiata Choir and Senior Choir, who performed at the @nspcc_official Carols by Candlelight service in the beautiful setting of the Metropolitan Cathedral last week.

Our pupils sang with warmth, confidence and real musicality, helping to create a moving and atmospheric evening for everyone attending. They represented the school wonderfully and brought a special sense of spirit to the occasion.

It was a fantastic opportunity for our young singers to be part of such a meaningful event, and we are truly grateful to the NSPCC and the Cathedral for welcoming us once again.

Well done to all three choirs on memorable and uplifting performances. 🎶✨
It was wonderful for our choirs, Concordia and Ama It was wonderful for our choirs, Concordia and Amabile, to perform in Ambleside yesterday, singing to a sold-out audience in the intimate and atmospheric Grove Barn. It was the perfect setting for a cosy Carols by Candlelight evening, and our pupils loved being part of it.

The combined choirs filled the space with festive cheer, performing a programme that ranged from John Rutter and Benjamin Britten to Snow Patrol.

The audience joined in with great enthusiasm, helping to make the evening truly special. Moments like this remind us how powerful it is when music brings people together, especially at this time of year 🕯️🎶
