The Yr10 GCSE Photography group have received an invitation from the national charitable organisation English Heritage to play a role in the forthcoming 800th anniversary of the signing of the Gt Yarmouth charter.

This event is to be celebrated throughout the summer in the town & Oriel have been invited to mount an exhibition of photographs based on the Row Houses and the historic environment within Gt Yarmouth.

Sue Allen, responsible for education for English Heritage at the Row Houses has seen the ‘very impressive photographs’ the students have been exhibiting at Norwich Cathedral and would like us to do a similar exhibition based in Gt Yarmouth.

The exhibition would be based in Row 111 House throughout the summer season, with a press launch of the completed work.

This is the first time that the Row Houses have been used in this way and it is a fantastic opportunity for both our students and college to be involved.

On Tuesday 4th March an Oriel dance group has been invited to perform at the Marina Theatre in Lowestoft in a festival, organised by Kirkley High School.

The group of both boys and girls, from years 8, 9 & 10 are performing a piece choreographed by Mr Wint and Mr Pedrick, with music by Hannah Montana and Fedde Le Grande.

Rona Vaudin has been appointed Dance Captain and the other performers are:

Lewis, Megan, Dakota, Whitney, Chantelle, Candice, Reece, Vagantus, Jacob, Colin, Kyle, Jason, Rikki . (Unfortunately one of the group, Rebecca Pawson, is unable to perform due to injury.)

Oriel Specialist Mathematics and Computing College has the only boys performing in the show – well done to you all!

Further updates and information about tickets will be posted on our website or by contacting Mr. Wint.

In conjunction with GY Enterprise, Oriel is going global.

It is less than two weeks until five of our students embark on a week-long fully-funded trip abroad.

Look at the picture below… can you guess the location???

Are you interested in the training methods used in professional sport, football in general, or are you a Norwich City fan?? 

Then this opportunity could be for you!

We have been invited to take 12 Oriel College students to a closed training session of the Norwich City first team squad before the end of this season. 

If you would like to be considered for this trip you need to collect a quiz sheet from Miss Haddleton, complete the questions and the ‘tie-break’ statement and return to her by Friday 22nd February. 

The students selected to go will be those who have the most correct answers in the quiz.  Should there be a draw, the statements will be taken into consideration.

This is an opportunity that does not happen very often, make the most of it - get a question sheet NOW!
