The following five students: Lola Onalaja; Batool Naqvi; Faisa Ahmed; Radim Asil and Athikur Chowdry, had an amazing opportunity on Monday 30th November, where they visited the Royal College of Surgeons.
This self-directed visit gave the students a chance to explore how to apply for medicine, learn different types of medicine and have the opportunity to ask questions to a panel of medical students. They also took part in mini workshops that will assist them with suturing, laparoscopic and interview skills.
The students thrived from the experience and feedback and pleased that it gave them an excellent insight to medicine and assisted them on future education and career decisions.
21 Sixth Form students offered to act as volunteers at a Christmas shopping event on Thursday, 19th November 2015 in Uxbridge High Street. During the day they assisted elderly people with their Christmas shopping. The event was organised by the town centre minister and we were one of several secondary schools that had been asked to support on the day.
After assisting the guests with their shopping, the students took their elderly guest to the Middlesex Suite at Uxbridge Civic Centre for a Christmas lunch. Everyone, including volunteers and accompanying staff, were treated to a meal. Whilst all guest ate their lunch, local primary schools sang Christmas carols.
A special guest made an appearance and presented each elderly person with a Christmas gift to complete a lovely day.

Six sixth form students, Aisha McPherson, Nathan McGreeghan, Chloe Allen, Charlie Tomkins, Sanije Sylejmani and Sanah Sacranie, devised a drama piece on anti-bullying and performed it in front of 120 students at Whitehall Junior School on Wednesday 18th November 2015.
The performance was followed by two successful workshops, teaching the primary students successful methods for tackling bullying. The event was part of the sixth formers’ Theatre In Education project, that they have been working on since late September.
The performance was well received by staff and students at Whitehall Junior School, with one member of staff asking if they were a professional touring theatre company.
Debating victory!
This year Uxbridge High School, defending champions of the West London Schools’ Debating League, had more students than ever taking part, and victoriously too; winning nine first places and comfortably scoring First Place School overall.
The sixteen students, from across Key Stages 4 and 5, competed in the first round against schools such as Langley Academy, Villiers High School, Harlington School and Rosedale Academy.
It was the first debating experience for most and all performed exceptionally well. Students had prepared the motion “This House Believes Surveillance Has Gone Too Far”. The teams performed with confidence and poise, especially in their interpretations of the motion and rebuttal to opposing teams. The second debate was on an unseen topic, “This House Believes We Should Decriminalize Drugs”. Here we benefited from the advice of our student coaches Mohammed Khan and Athikur Choudhury. The teams did particularly well, scoring 1st or 2nd place in many debates. Particular mention must go to Suidi Mohamed and Sumaya Dhashane for feisty, yet impressive performances!
Many students received well-deserved praise from judges, with standout performances going to those who won straight first places: Alex Old, Esme Henry, Vishal Joshi, Gurleen Arora, Callum McGloin, and Gloria Feudjo Tepie.
Other strong performances came from Kara Shipperly and Rosa Beishon, who scored 1st and 2nd place; to Aathithan Luckeeswaran and Hans Aukhaj for their perceptive summary speeches; and to Arjola Idrizi and Farhana Choudhury for their teamwork and challenging Points of Interest delivered to the opposing sides.
Many congratulations to all the students taking part.
