Clifton College Website
Student Contributions
A school is all about its pupils and so the website should reflect this. We have always been proud at Clifton that our students are our best advert. When prospective parents and their children visit the school sixth form students take them on a tour and chat in a relaxed fashion about life at the school and what is on offer. The feedback from these visits is always good and so we decided to create space for their views and creative writing to be included on the site. This section will grow, I am certain, but at present a few brave volunteers have given up their valuable time to contribute. They have chosen what they want to write about and so it will necessarily be an interesting mix of styles and views. Perhaps in the future these budding journalists will revisit their early offerings in the archives.
Make sure you read about our contributors to find out a bit more about them!
Sometimes, students other than our committee members like to write the occassional article...

German Lunch, by Johnnie Gill
Julia Burmeister joined Clifton last year in the Lower Sixth and is now studying French, Italian, Mathematics and Economics for A-Level. In the future, she wants to do something on the international basis as she is very keen to explore different cultures and parts of the world. Julia loves travelling around and is always with a camera in her hand. She is very excited about the upcoming year working with the School website team.
