The Boys' Division has recently been celebrating its new status as a 'FairAware' School. The Fairtrade Foundation has awarded the school with this status following the past year's many activities designed to raise both funds and awareness within the school community.

Old Boltonians and their friends gathered at Bolton Golf Club for the annual President's Golf Day on Thursday. The teams' entry fees and raffle raised money for the School Bursary Fund, and the day ended with a fantastic total of £5,491 - enough to fund a half bursary for one year!
