Perseus House students are hard working and considerate of others. They take part in College events and competitions and enjoy working together on charity fund raising events that we run throughtout the year. Each term, meetings of House Group Representatives are held, where Perseus students' views and ideas are raised and debated. Tutors in Perseus House are keen to support the students in their House groups. This ensures that all students are encouraged to be actively involved in all the competitions and events that we run. Here we see Nathan Elford escorting Kirsty Green up the catwalk at the fashion show. This is a very exciting event which gives students ideas of what they can wear to the Year 11 Leavers’ Prom. Being chosen to ‘model’ the outfits is a very special privilege.
This year, Perseus students collected 124 Christmas boxes for the Samaritan’s Purse charity. This was a fantastic team effort where the students really showed a huge amount of commitment to helping others who are less fortunate than themselves. With the wide variety of events that we have, there seems to be something to suit all the students. Perseus students always give their best and really have a good team spirit. |

Medusa was one of three sisters, daughters of Ceto and Phorcys, who was transformed into a hideous creature by the goddess Athene.. Also known as the Gorgon, Medusa had serpents for hair, huge teeth, and a protruding tongue. One look turned people to stone. Athene helped Perseus gather magic equipment and gave him a shield to use as a mirror so that he would not look at Medusa directly. Perseus flew to the Gorgon's den with his winged sandals, and, using the shield as a mirror, cut off Medusa's head and buried it.
