Didsbury High – From The Ground Up

The post Building âÓ¶¹appÏÂÔØ â€“ the story so far… first appeared on âÓ¶¹appÏÂÔØ.

The steel frames are all in place and the floors are visible. Outside, the contractors have been busy levelling the ground and talking delivery of building materials.

BAM Construct UK are doing a superb job working with an amazing design by Pozzoni Architecture. It’s great to see everything starting to come together and our vision for âÓ¶¹appÏÂÔØ truly becoming a reality.

âÓ¶¹appÏÂÔØ does not have a catchment area.  If a tie-break is required to determine which children get a place at the school then those living closest will have priority. As âÓ¶¹appÏÂÔØ is a new school, opening one year group at a time, there is currently no availability for mid-year admissions.

Offers will be made on 1 March 2019 by the local authority.

He will be spending a week each term working with students at Trust schools Cheadle Hulme High School, Laurus Cheadle Hulme, Laurus Ryecroft in Droylsden and Gorsey Bank Primary School in Wilmslow.

Matt will also be hosting some evening activities where parents will be invited to attend.

Matt said: “I am absolutely delighted to be appointed writer in residence for the Laurus Trust. It’s an exciting opportunity for me to work closely with some excellent schools in south Manchester and Cheshire.

“My ambition is to enhance reading for pleasure and run some creative writing sessions where we look for the next JK Rowling!�

Laurus Trust chief executive Linda Magrath said: “This is a fantastic opportunity for all our students to work closely with a writer of real acclaim. Following his participation in Cheadle Hulme High School’s Culture and Creativity Festival recently we are delighted that Matt has agreed to forge even stronger ties with the Trust and inspire a new generation of writers or even adventurers!�

In 1996, amid the worst weather conditions on record, Matt made a successful ascent of Mount Everest’s notorious North Face, one of the most technically demanding climbs on the world’s highest peak, beating hurricane-force winds and temperatures of -70C. Three of the eight deaths on Everest that day were on the North Face.

His film Summit Fever has now been seen by more than 20m people worldwide. His written account of the same expedition, The Death Zone, was published to critical acclaim.

Matt also writes fiction for teenagers. His debut thriller series Mortal Chaos was well received by critics and readers alike. Matt has followed this up with The Everest Files, a dramatic and popular trilogy set on the world’s highest mountain.

Matt has worked as a director/cameraman for National Geographic television, the Discovery Channel, the BBC and Channel 4. His film projects have also taken him to Antarctica and Africa.

In 2016 Matt was back on Everest as writer in residence with expedition leader Jagged Globe.
