]]>Students from Year 9 enjoyed a week of sailing on the island of Ventotene on June 15th at the Lega Navale Ventotene. The trip was organised as part of the school's annual week of activities before the Summer break.
As part of the five day intensive course, the students learned how to prepare sailing boats for water and how to actually sail.
Francesca who organised the trip said, "It was an amazing week. Ventotene is such an amazing place and we had six fantastic lessons sailing around the island."

Year 12 AS Level Drama students will get the chance to talk to the people behind the succesful educational theatre group at Sala Umberto on February 5th.
The students will discover the kind of work involved in staging a touring production and watch the actual performance of 'I-Rock' a play about an aspiring Italian rock musician.
]]>The New School Rome's home-made cake sales every Thursday are proving to be a huge success. The idea came from students in Years 7, 8 and 9 as a way of raising money for the victims of the Haiti earthquake.
Two cake sales have already taken place with two more planned before the school breaks for half-term on February 11th. Students and parents alike have been very busy in kitchens across Rome churning out delicious home-made cakes for the sales!
So far more than €500 has been raised.
The Primary school also organised its own events for Haiti on Thursday January 28th. See the separate news article for more details.
