"In November, Bridgewater went on the first leg of its annual exchange trip to Martha’s Vineyard where students stayed with their host families for ten days and took part in a number of thrilling activities..."
For parents of our pupils on the New York trip, this message from Mrs Antell: We've landed safe and sound. The pupils' behaviour has been impeccable!

Y7 CONWAY UPDATE: All Appleton students arrived safely last night. They had a great time at the talent show and are geared up ready for a bit of a rainy day doing activities at Conway today.
On the 13th, 14th and 15th February 2018, Bridgewater High School held its annual school production with this year’s show being the musical: Bugsy Malone.
Today Bridgewater students received the new style GCSE results with numbers replacing grades for most subjects. The great news is that the consistently strong results Bridgewater students gained under the previous system are in evidence again today:
Girls’ Football Success: On Thursday 15th of February, the year 8 and 9 under 14 girls football team competed in a tournament against other schools in Warrington...
Bridgewater students have reasons to celebrate!
Students at Bridgewater High School have at last got what they deserve for all their hard work and commitment – a great set of GCSE grades...

This array of medals, certificates and sweets can only mean one thing - it’s another Rewards Week at Bridgewater. Over a thousand emails will go home this week in recognition of students consistently demonstrating our school values.
Rising to the Challenge!
In a year like no other, Bridgwater students have once again shown their resilience, stamina and commitment, emerging with a very strong and highly creditable set of GCSE exam results...
It is always great to hear about the successes of our students out of school and Martha Hurst's (Y10) fantastic swimming achievements are certainly a testament to what you can attain with the necessary hard work and rigour:
As part of World Book Day 2024, Lower School pupils enjoyed some creative writing workshops with the author Lis Jardine. Pupils were tasked with coming up with some murder mystery scenarios and were shown how to put together a mystery story. Many thanks

Last tweet from Mrs Antell: On our way back to the airport after the best time in NYC. The pupils have been incredible and we have all had a wonderful time. Flight number VS128 due at Manchester Airport at 6:55am (Terminal 2).
