Oscar Dunleavy, who used to make the world's most perfect apple tarts, is missing, presumed dead. No-one seems too surprised, except for Meg, his best friend, and his little brother Stevie.

Mrs McCormack-Bird
The Sin-Eater’s Daughter
By Melinda Salisbury
Seventeen-year-old Twylla lives in the castle. But although she's engaged to the prince, Twylla isn't exactly a member of the court. She's the executioner.
As the Goddess embodied, Twylla instantly kills anyone she touches. Each month she's taken to the prison and forced to lay her hands on those accused of treason. No one will ever love a girl with murder in her veins. Even the prince, whose royal blood supposedly makes him immune to Twylla's fatal touch, avoids her company. But then a new guard arrives, a boy whose easy smile belies his deadly swordsmanship. And unlike the others, he's able to look past Twylla's executioner robes and see the girl, not the Goddess.

Spring Menu 2016
From Neil Beckley: Catering goes cashless: Following the recent successful upgrade to the fob system, no cash
will be accepted in the Dining Rooms from February 22nd after the half term holiday. Fobs can be topped up on-line or at the cash machines in the Dining Rooms (between 7.30am and 1.30pm). This will speed up the service at the tills and result in shorter queues at meal times. Cash will still be accepted in the Sixth form cafe.
Please contact finance@cherwell.oxon.sch.uk if on-line instructions or link codes are required. The office will be manned regularly during half term so they can be issued during the holiday.
Year 11 and Year 12
Exploring the NHS Taster
Week Oxford Health’s Exploring the NHS Taster Week provides you with the opportunity to learn
about many of the exciting careers that are open to you within the NHS and gives you an
insight into some of the less known professions.
During this week long programme there will be some classroom sessions as well as the
opportunity to shadow our staff in both clinical and non-clinical settings during their working
day.
The dates that we will be holding the taster weeks for this year are:
25th – 29th July 2016
22nd – 26th August 2016
This programme is open to students with an interest in pursuing a health career who are
currently in year 11 or 12. Our spaces are very limited and we will be selecting students
carefully to ensure we are giving this opportunity to the most dedicated future health
professionals.
If you would like further information or to register your interest in attending one of
these weeks please email careers@oxfordhealth.nhs.uk
For attention of Year 11, 12 and 13.
