Our footballers have finished an incredible season with recognition at the Liverpool Schools' Football Association awards at St. George's Hall.
The bus back from the national finals was weighed heavy with trophies and this was recognised at the presentation which saw players from St. Julie's in Years 7, 8 and 9 represented in three different national title winning sides.
We're very proud of all of the players for their astonishing achievements throughout the city and congratulate them all for their representation of our school and our city.
After lots of wonderful exam performances it was time for our younger performers to take the spotlight as they shared their talents in the Performing Arts Showcase!
The evening saw students drawing on the skills that they have developed across the full Performing Arts curriculum and extra-curricular classes to deliver an extravaganza of dance, song and drama.
You can get a flavour of the show from the wonderful photo gallery below shot by Mrs Mannings.
On Tuesday a group of students from Years 7 to 9 attended an event to celebrate the launch of the RISE UP programme.
They took part in a range of activities including yoga, team building, kinball and also a colour run.
They learnt about the importance of sport and exercise and how this can improve mental wellbeing.

Well done to our Mathematicians in Year 10 who have completed another year of Circle Club in which the students were selected to 'front run' all material and provide feedback to Axion Maths.
Axion “believe in the power of maths to transform lives and nations. Access to that power should not depend on a child's background”. Their mission aligns directly with St. Julies values, and we are keen to continue our work with Axion supporting the Circle Club project.
Over the Summer holidays, Mersey Care’s School Immunisation Team will be offering ‘catch up clinics’ for children and young people across Liverpool, St Helens, Sefton and Knowsley for any routine pre-school or school immunisations they may have missed.
The summer holidays are an ideal time for parents or carers to catch up any missed immunisations and ensure your child is fully protected before they return to school in September.
If you are unsure whether your child is up to date with all their childhood vaccinations, you can check this by contacting your GP or your local School Aged Immunisation Team on:
Liverpool Schools: 0151 295 3833
Knowsley Schools: 0151 351 8805
Sefton Schools: 0151 247 6130
St Helens Schools: 01744 415 645
Matt Ashton, Director of Public Health for Liverpool City Council, has stressed the importance of childhood immunisation.
“Thanks to the NHS Childhood Immunisation Programme, many dangerous and life-threatening diseases, such as polio, tetanus, diptheria, measles and mumps, have virtually disappeared in the UK.
“But they are still around in many other countries throughout the world – and in the UK, they are only kept at bay by our high immunisation rates. That’s why it’s so important that we all keep protecting our children with life-saving vaccines.
“If your child is not fully up to date on all of their immunisations and boosters, I would strongly urge you to take full advantage of these catch up clinics and get them fully protected.”
Drop-in immunisation clinics will be held at:

The week of wet weather broke a little for us as the whole school headed to Wavertree Athletics Centre for School Sports Day!
The event opened with a fantastic song from Layel in Year 7 who battled some nerves to give an accomplished performance to rapturous applause. This was followed by a dazzling dance performance from students across the year groups to a thumping soundtrack.
With the entertainment concluded events moved on to the traditional parade of flags before students got stuck into the events that included the obstacle course, ball and spoon, welly wanging, hula hooping, long jump, standing jump, high jump, javelin, shot and a number of different track races.
While students weren't competing they could watch from the stands, get some snacks from the tuck shop, get made up with some face painting, or just cringe at some terrible jokes from our commentary team.
The scores from each event were tallied under the watchful eye of Mr Torpey who declared our winners to be Maria! Congratulations to them, and all students who competed in events throughout the day.
A special mention goes to the staff relay team who have made two successful title defences to win the Staff vs Sixth Form relay race for the third year running. This year it was close!
Our Year 9 students were undeterred by inclement weather as they set off for the first of this week's trips to the Lake District!
Today's visit as part of the Global Citizenship Course, and saw the students walk to the top of Orrest Head viewpoint then down into the Lakeside town of Bowness on Windermere for lunch and a chance to view the lake, say hello to the local wildlife and do some souvenir shopping.
Many of the students were making their first trip to the Lake District and despite the challenges of the weather the group had a fantastic time! Thank you to all of the staff who helped to support this trip.
Congratulations to Millicent in Year 7 and Summer in Year 8 who have returned from the Dance World Championships with gold medals!
The competition - the largest dance competition in the world - was held this year in Prague and ran over 8 days of performances and our students, who dance with Jelli Studios, took gold in the 'Showdance' category with a performance of 'Hocus Pocus' with impressive second places in the Acro and Commercial categories with performances titled 'Fairy Tales' and 'Gotham'.
We caught up with Millicent who explained that the selection process involved sending video performances to the selection panel who make a choice from troupes across the country to wear the England uniform. Although only in Year 7, she has a lot of experience, starting dancing with Bluebell Studios at the age of 3!
To those looking to follow her success she offered the following advice: "Don't give up! Put your mind to it and you can do it."
Congratulations to both of our talented dancers on this hugely exciting achievement!
Congratulations to Maya in Year 7 who has had a fantastic result in the Gymstars international competition held in Malta.
The open entry competition saw Maya representing The Wire gymnastics club, her training base in Warrington where she works under coach Holly Doherty.
In a competition featuring hundreds of competitors, Maya proudly claimed an overall third place in the 10-12 age group, winning the bars discipline outright.
Maya's journey started on her trampoline at home before joining Beth Tweddle Gymnastics, and then moving on to Aerial Gymnastics in Croxteth. She has been training at The Wire since January this year.
Her advice to anyone seeking to emulate her success is simple: "Keep trying!"
Very well done to Maya on her success!
Congratulations to 25 of our talented poets whose work has been selected for publication in the 'Through Their Eyes' anthology.
In this competition, the pupils had to write from the perspective another person or object. The responses from our pupils included some imaginative and quite abstract ideas, including: loneliness, fear, super heroes and a river!
Well done to:
Lilyrose, Imogen, Ava, Luella, Heidi, Evie, Ariann, Grace, Isla, Ciara, Hannah, Olivia, Maggie, Maddison, Paige, Ava, Freya, Maisie, Nevaeh, Jessica, Esme, Isabella, Grace, Sharnie and Kendall.

Year 13 students have dazzled at their Prom, celebrating and reflecting on friendships, memories and all they have achieved together during their time at St. Julie’s.
The party was hosted at Allerton Manor who rolled out the red carpet for the guests who dressed for a red carpet occasion! The evening started under a little rain but spirits weren't dampened and the skies soon cleared. A wonderful evening was had by all. Good luck Class of 2024!

Congratulations to Year 7 Students, Lilia and Jessica, who competed in the Archdiocese of Liverpool Public Speaking Competition.
The competition, held on Thursday at Archbishop Beck Catholic College, drew students from across the city and we're very proud of our two speakers who were awarded certificates for their confidence and excellent preparation.
On Thursday the whole school diverged from their normal timetable in a whole school PSHE drop-down day with engaging activities for all!
The day brought a mixed programme of events delivered by both school staff and external visitors, all centred around student development and wellbeing responsive to student need.
Year 7 students enjoyed team working and art therapy workshops, producing some beautiful decorated orbs. Part of their day saw pastoral walks, and they enjoyed drama workshops and a fashion design workshop with visiting practitioner Kirsty Doyle.
Year 8 students got the chance to burn off some energy dancing, and move in a far more controlled way picking up some vital life skills in self defence with visitors MMA Defence. The afternoon brought workshops about relationship with other students delivered by Natalie Vaughn from AIMS.
The day for Year 9 was based around visiting group 'The Cells Project', an organisation dedicated to showing young people the consequences of crime and the realities of criminal life. The team delivered five workshops: 'Prison and life after prison - a girl's view', 'Gun, gang and knife crime', 'Family and victim perspective', 'Drugs and alcohol' and 'Joint enterprise and exploitative relationships'.
Year 10 students saw some great work in Careers, alongside more relaxing activities including baking and nature walks.
Throughout the day students across all years cast their votes in our mock election, with Year 12 students casting their votes before they left for an off site visit to Wrexham University.
Thank you to all of our students for engaging with the day's activities so well, and to our staff and visitors for delivering a fantastic day.
On Wednesday evening 50 dancers across all key stages headed to North Liverpool Academy to compete in the annual Secondary School Dance Competition.
Students had been working very hard preparing for the event and they did not disappoint. They showcased their performance skills, technique and musicality and their hard work and dedication saw them taking a massive haul of 8 trophies!
Dancers from St Julie's were awarded:
1st place KS5
1st place KS4
2nd place KS4
1st place solo
2nd place KS3
3rd place KS3
The judges also had three special awards that they awarded to individuals for stand out moments. Two of those awards were presented to St Julie's students.
Judges' Most Energy Award - Rosa - Y7
Judges' Most Passion Award - Ava - Y7
The evening was a fantastic celebration of talent from across the city and our dancers were proud just to participate. Well done to all our dancers for their outstanding performances and representing our school community so well in a city-wide competition!
On Wednesday the 3rd of July excited students from across the City got to spend the day in their new secondary schools, and we were delighted to welcome the newest members of our school community for their first day in classrooms, spending time with their new Form Tutors and getting a fantastic taste of all that is to come in September.
The students started their day with a welcome assembly and then got to spend time in form class getting some essential information for a smooth start in September.
Then it was break time, followed by lessons in Art, Musical Theatre, Maths, History and Computer Science, all of which helped build up an appetite for lunch!
The Dining Room proved to be a satisfactory experience, with the menu choices of hot and cold food finding favour. Lessons in the afternoon included Drama, Spanish, English, Business, Maths, Geography and Science, alongside a workshop in the Chapel finding out about St Julie and our Notre Dame Values.
We hope that all of our students have enjoyed the day as much as we did, and that they left feeling reassured and eager to learn in September!
Year 7, 8 and 9 Performing Arts morning class students have been rewarded for their hard work in extra curricular projects this year with a trip to see 'Wicked' at the Liverpool Empire Theatre.
Fifty students attended Tuesday's evening performance, with a further 30 students attending on Wednesday.
Well done to all of the hard working Key Stage 3 students for their energy and enthusiasm in classes this year. We know that while the trip was a reward the students will still have been taking careful mental notes on the staging and production for future inspiration!
A group of music students from Year 10 got a taste of a professional recording studio on a visit to Edge Hill University this week.
The students made the trip to the leafy campus in Ormskirk as guests of the Music Department, and were quickly into the studio to start laying down some tracks!
Working with an experienced studio recording technician, the performers recorded into the ProTools digital workstation through an Avid C24 desk that helped capture the nuances of their performances.
The sessions were very productive, and our musicians left with four fully mixed and complete songs and many happy memories!
Thank you to the team at Edge Hill for hosting us, and well done to our performers.
This year 30 students have been working on the LAMDA acting programme, preparing for taking exams ranging from Grade 4-7.
The students have been training with actor and LAMDA coordinator, Jacob Bee for several months and have worked exceptionally hard to develop their performance skills and techniques.
The visiting examiner has attended two days of examinations and has been really impressed by the range of talent and enthusiasm shown by all students. We look forward to sharing their results with you in the near future!
Monday evening saw the start of a 4 night audition process for St Julie's Christmas production of 'Grease', and interest in taking part is huge!
Over 150 students from Years 7 to 12 attended, learning dance routines and singing for a place in the show.
Further session will see students auditioning for acting roles.
Congratulations to all students who showcased their talent and commitment to the arts. If our first audition was anything to go by, we're in for a fantastic show!
Following some wonderful performances from Year 10 students, this week our A Level students from Year 12 performed to audiences in their devised pieces.
THey filled the Dorothy Stang theatre with laugher as they performed their original comedy scripts.
Both groups created fast-paced dramas, inspired by theatre practitioner, John Godber's observation comedies.
They successfully showcased the theatrical skills of multirole, stylised movement and direct address of the audience in slick, well rehearsed and creative performances.
Congratulations to all of the performers and thank you to the audience for your generous support.
We had a wonderful evening on Thursday of this week as we invited visitors in to school for the first of this Year’s Open Evenings.
Our guests had the chance to explore our building, meet our staff and get inside information from our Year 7 tour guides who worked hard all evening escorting and directing visitors.
We hope that our guests got a great feel for what it means to be part of the St Julie’s community, and we thank them all for visiting.
After the stress of the exam season our Year 11 students took a moment to celebrate and relax as the class of 2024 reunited for one final time as a complete Year Group.
The celebration event in the Chapel saw students and their family members sharing memories and hopes for the future. The audience heard a welcoem Mrs Gawley followed by a reflection across five years with Progress Leader Mrs Mason.
Mr Willis then spoke about our Notre Dame values and their impact on daily lives before entertainment from Miss Wright and Mr Quinn with a live performance of 'Girls Just Wanna Have Fun'.
Guests then enjoyed a very moving speech from Head Prefect Aislinn, who reflected on her experiences at St. Julie's. Final words came from Mrs McCourt before our Chaplain led us in a closing prayer.
After the formal celebration ended the party continued with guests gathering for photographs and enjoying tea and cakes in a lavish spread in the Dining Room. Our sincere thanks go to everybody who joined us.
Congratulations to our Year 7/8 Football Team who have emerged from a tournament this week as champions of Merseyside!
The team faced sides from schools across Merseyside, with all matches being contested in blazing heat. Nevertheless, the side progressed from the group stage unbeaten against Gateacre, Wirral Grammar, West Kirby and Litherland.
The semi-final brought victory against a strong side from St Cuthbert's that saw a tense final against a team from De La Salle. The opposition took an early goal in the final and defended their lead robustly, only to fall to an equaliser in the dying seconds of the game.
It was then all about temperament as the players lined up to take penalities. Nerves held for our gallant players and they emerged as tournament champions!
They are pictured here with the UEFA 2022 Euros trophy, as lifted by the Lionesses at Wembley!
Congratulations to Faith, Imogen, Grace, Ella, Libby, Jessie, Luella, Maisey, Annabelle, Scarlett and Freya on a magnificent tournament.
Last week we turned our theatre over to the talented students of Christ the King Primary School who performed their take on Taylor Swift's 'Eras' tour!
The students from Year 3, 4, 5 and 6 have been preparing for the show under the careful instruction of their choir teacher, Miss Douglas. They demonstrated tremendous skills in both singing and choreographed dancing as they showcased their stagecraft with great joy and enthusiasm.
The students proudly performed before an audience of parents, family and Mr Delaney, Headteacher at Christ the King.
Congratulations to all of the young performers on a wonderful performance - we look forward to seeing more great work in the future.
Year 7 are currently working towards completing their Arts Award Bronze Certificate, part of which involves reviewing other work.
Whilst all students have been working exceptionally hard, 7R have gone the extra mile with their creative theatre reviews of the Broadway show, 'Legally Blonde'.
A special mention must be given to Olivia who's theatre review was outstanding! Well done to all of the students for their hard work towards this nationally recognised award.
As part of the celebrations for Women in Engineering Week, thirteen Year 10 students took part in what has become a brilliant annual event hosted by Catherine Downes and Sonia Smith of Amey Engineering, Speke.
Saint Julie's were up against students from Co-op Academy in Bebington. Our students were superb ambassadors for Saint Julie's, working together and using their STEM and creative talents to demonstrate incredible leadership, problem-saving skills and teamwork.
They were challenged not only to design an improvement scheme for The Strand, but had to take into account environmental impact, traffic flow (cars and bikes) and pedestrians, optimising and enabling access to key architectural features, traffic lanes, roads, cycle lanes, pedestrian areas, crossings, traffic lights whilst considering materials, costs and specifications.
Working in three teams facilitated by an Amey employee, they came up with amazing schemes. The challenge ended with individual team presentations explaining their designs, the rationale behind them and then responded a set of questions from the two judges who were both professional engineers - one from Amey and one from Wirral Council - which was no easy task, yet they rose to the occasion splendidly!
There were real stars amongst our students and so much effort and great spirit that it was a shame that only one team could win. The winning team were Abi, Isabelle, Grace and Eleanor who were outstanding and were presented with a trophy to keep and vouchers to spend. Everybody was given a generous goody-bag to take away. Huge congratulations to the whole group - Charlotte, Charlotte, Ellie, Niah, Liley, Freya, Katie, Ava and Azuo. Equally huge thanks to Catherine, Sonia and Neil who were amazing guides.

We've received a thank you certificate from the Mental Health Foundation for our fundraising work on the 'Wear It Green' day.
They've said to us: "I am just getting in touch to thank you, the staff and all the students at St Julies High School for raising an incredible £204.00 for the Mental Health Foundation by hosting a Wear It Green Day! Please see attached a thank you certificate.
We really are so grateful for your support, and without the efforts of amazing supporters like you, we wouldn’t be able to continue our vital work into preventing mental health problems and making good mental health a reality for all."
Thanks for everyone who helped support the work of this fantastic charity.
Congratulations to the 22 students of the Brilliant Club who celebrated their graduation in at the University of Manchester this week!

This week audiences gathered for two evenings of Y10 GCSE Devised performances that showcased students creativity, script writing and acting.
The first evening brought two performances that are submitted as exam coursework for the GCSE Drama award, and so the pressure was on for the students to deliver polished and convincing performances that drew a terrific audience response - one of the marking criteria.
Our talented performers did not disappoint. The first performance brought a tense and gripping drama based on the 2008 case of missing schoolgirl Shannon Matthews that held the audience on the edge of their seats.
The second group to perform flipped the mood completely as gravity turned to levity and the audience followed a madcap tale of a group of girls jetting off on their first holiday to Malaga. The rapid fire script drew plenty of laughs and left the audience wanting more.
After a hugely impressive first night the bar was set very high for our next two groups performing on Tuesday and they rose to it splendidly.
The first performance of the second evening tackled the complicated and often troubling relationship that young people have with social media, and how that particular lens can offer distorted presentations of reality. The students delivered a thought provoking performance around a very sensitive topic and raised awareness of the people in the real world who can help if you find yourself in a difficult or compromising situation.
The second performance brought a change in pace as students performed a snappy piece shining a light on the murky world of 'county lines'. The story exposed the ways in which teenagers can find themselves being coerced and controlled by manipulative gang members to transport illegal drugs. In this piece students made particularly effective use of multirole, showcasing to the audience their ability to play multiple parts through an extensive range of performance skills.
Congratulations to all of the performers for their wonderful work, to the Performing Arts team who have worked so hard in preparation and finally to our two wonderful audiences for supporting the event so generously.
To celebrate Taylor Swift's visit to Liverpool Ava in 7A crafted a magnificent celebration cake!
The sweet treat took Ava six hours and the results show the time was well invested. Well done Ava on some great work!

In order to raise awareness of the range of Post 16 opportunities available to students, Year 9 enjoyed a presentation from The Learning Foundry this morning. The Learning Foundry (rated Ofsted 'Good') works across Merseyside and the North West to offer traineeship, apprenticeship and bespoke training programmes in a wide range of business areas for those students who do not wish to progress to Sixth Form. Typically, the majority of St Julie's students choose to remain with us after completing their GCSEs, but we recognise that for students who are unsure or who would prefer a more hands-on approach to learning, it is important to showcase a range of progression pathways to them.
High quality careers education and guidance in school or college is critical to young people’s futures. It helps to prepare them for the workplace by providing a clear understanding of the world of work including the routes to jobs and careers that they might find engaging and rewarding. It supports them to acquire the self-development and career management skills they need to achieve positive employment destinations. With large scale reforms to technical education and skills, it has never been more important to ensure that students are made aware of the full range of education and training options. We'd like to thank Tammy from The Learning Foundry for her presentation and to for the advice and guidance given.
