A date for your diary: on the evening of Saturday 11 February 2017 our Ghana 2017 group will be holding an evening of dancing (or foot tapping), drink and fantastic food at Cirencester Deer Park School.

Tickets (£15) to 'Curry in the Park' will go on sale in the New Year and can be bought through the school. Your ticket will include a tasty selection of Asian Starters and Curries, a free welcome drink, music by two fantastic local bands - 'Plucking Different' and 'The Barking Chickens' - and a cash bar. All proceeds will go to the Deer Park Ghana 2017 trip fund. Thanks for your anticipated support, it promises to be a great evening! More details in January.

In April 2017 a team of 27 Year 10 pupils from Deer Park will be volunteering in Ghana with Headteacher, Chiquita Henson, Geography teacher, Stacey Bluett and RP, Citizenship and English teacher Callum Broussine. They will be travelling to Ghana with African Adventures on a journey of a lifetime.
