Bradley Jamieson - Manchester University, History and Sociology
The scholarship obtained through the Dick Camplin Education Trust has been an enormous help whilst at University. In fact it was one of the things that reassured my parents about me going to University in the first place, as they could not afford to support me and were obviously worried. It has helped provide vital equipment for my studies. Without the scholarship I may never have gone to university, so I, and my family, are truly thankful for the support that David has provided through the Dick Camplin Award as a result of
Nick Blow’s contribution through Strategis Communications. ”

Great Law Debate Winners
Loreto Law students Matthew Foulds, Lucy Moran, Mark Nangle and Wayne Ramwell won the “Great Law Debate” at the BPP Law School in Manchester.
The team had to research and prepare a number of debates in order to compete against students from other Manchester schools.
The final debate centred on the issue that parents should be punished when their children offend: the Loreto team had to oppose this motion. Their study of the English Legal System, in which they examine and evaluate the aims of sentencing, linked helpfully in to the debate!
Mark also won a trophy for “Best overall speaker” for his performance during the day. Mark gave a passionate and enthusiastic speech outlining the many and complex reasons why parents should not be punished when their children commit crime.
Debating Matters
Loreto students have won praise and prizes for their oratory skills after taking part in the prestigious Debating Matters competition for the third year running.

Katherine won the coveted ‘best speaker’ award for the evening – the third time she has won this accolade as she took the top spot at last year’s Manchester round and the North West Regional Finals.
Nuffield Bursary scheme
Budding scientists have been undertaking real scientific research alongside top professionals in their field. Three students from Loreto took part in this year’s Nuffield Bursary scheme to apply what they’ve learnt in the classroom to the real world.
how Rolls Royce make fan blades for commercial airline engines and finally how Rolls Royce engines are assembled from a mind-boggling 18,000 parts from all over the world.
Students were amazed at the scale and precision of the operations.
Throughout all these sessions the students were being filmed for their reactions and thoughts and the resulting film was shown as the opening entertainment at the annual Rolls Royce science prize awards dinner Science Museum in London.
The only three students at the dinner were from Loreto. They sat with the Rolls Royce team at the event which was attended by 300 teachers, politicians and celebrities such as famous entrepreneur - inventor James Dyson.
Loreto International Voluntary Work
A former student has been inspired to help under-privileged children at one of Loreto’s partner schools in India. Jasmine Dale has been working in one of the busiest areas of Kolkata at the Loreto Sealdah school, which is not only a girls school but a resource centre for the city’s poorest of the poor.
Jasmine came to Loreto from Longendale Community College in 2007 and is currently studying medicine at the University of St Andrews. While at Loreto she was active in charity work which included helping at the college’s homeless people’s party, organising a sports week for disabled and able- bodied children plus serving as a youth representative on her local council.
Half of the 1,400 pupils attending Loreto Sealdah live in slum areas and the school provides them with free tuition, food, clothing, rent, medicine, while the other half come from better-off homes where parents can afford to pay a small fee.
