The BBC Concert Orchestra are performing an interactive Musicmix concert specially designed for key stage 3 and 4 pupils on Wednesday 17th March 2010 in Kings Lynn.

The concert is presented by Radio 1's Nihal Artanayake and will include performances of popular classical film and TV music. Live images of the orchestra and film excerpts will be projected onto large screens as well as an interview with a film music composer and a world premier of Harry Patch by Radiohead.

I have managed to secure a limited number of free tickets to the concert and so the only cost will be £4.60 for transport.
The coach will leave Cromer High School during morning registration and will return us to school around lunchtime. This is a fantastic opportunity to see a world famous orchestra performing well known pieces of music selected for a school aged audience and supporting the work done in music lessons.

Mrs N. Hough
Head of Music

To celebrate the birth of prophet Muhammad a special school lunch was held on the 26th Feb 2010.

I have to admit that I was not expecting a great deal when I attended the Cromer High School “Community Promotion Fair” on January 27th. My apologies to all the organisers, as it turned out to be well set up and interesting, in particular when you come across people like Helen Dalton-Hare from About With Friends which I knew so little of before. Ben (on left) was very keen to explain how much there is going on for him. This organisation is all about supporting young people with learning difficulties to have a social life, enjoy friendships and develop new life skills. I asked Kate Royall, the Extended School Coordinator, & the Head of Cromer High School, Glyn Hambling, how they felt the event had gone. Kate: This is all about networking as well as both the school & the exhibitors getting more involved with their community. I think it has gone very well. Glyn: As you say I hope we will do many more similar events in the future as it is so important to work along side the community we serve.

How long does it take to find out about all the societies and clubs in your local community? Answer: more than a life time.

As well as meeting many people I already know, I met several others including these two ladies Mary Iginla & Pam Long from The Joy Of Food. These two, alongside others, go out into the community teaching people from 14 to 30 how to cook and encouraging them to be confident with recipes and eat more healthily. As Mary & Pam put it: “Anyone can learn to cook. I would also say that we have had people who come to us who are unable to peel a potato.”

As well as various Cromer Associations and Societies, there were people like Rochelle Mortimer Massingham (Below) representing the Aldborough Village History Society. There can be few people who know as much as Rochelle does about our community. As well as local schools, Cromer in Bloom, The North Norfolk Viking Swimming Club etc etc, The Cromer Society was there and represented by its Chairman Mr MacNish & Mr Branford. I look forward to the next one and may take a stand myself.

The night was just about having some fun and letting you see some amazing dresses from Frock O'Clock. We wanted to hold an event that shows you what is around your local area, and to let people know what is available for the prom and other occasions, as well as giving the girls (and boys) the opportunity to model.

We would like to say a big thank you to all our models and everyone that attended the event, which was a great success!
