On the last day of term, students took part in a fun enterprise competition organised by Mrs Dent in conjunction with Asda, Bishop Auckland.

In teams, students were challenged to devise a a healthy fruit drink, and design packaging and a marketing campaign for their product, before pitching their concept to a panel of judges, which included representatives from Asda.

All juices and ingredients to make samples were provided by the store.

"The event was a huge success" said Mrs Dent, "and particularly valuable at Christmas when young people can often find themselves surrounded by alcohol at parties. We hope the event proved that non-alcoholic cocktails are the best choice." Our sincere thanks go to Asda for their support.
