Congratulations to West Midlands Learning Campus for their entries in the Bromyard Scarecrow Festival event 2024. Rowden House School won this year's best entourage and took second place with their Scarecrow.
And Winslow Court took a third place for their scarecrow entry.
The town was filled with vibrant colours and an array of scarecrows once again. With everyone coming together for judging on the public hall lawn before the judges had chosen this year's winners. Well done everyone who took part in this year's parade.

A BIRTHDAY TO REMEMBER
This year’s Prom, is definitely up there with one of the most memorable evenings here on Campus. Summer had finally arrived!
RHS – PROM FEATURING OUR PROM KING & QUEEN 2024
Our marquee was up, decorated and ready to welcome the Gangsters, the flappers & the bootleggers!
This year’s theme was ‘Bugsy Malone’. The students all arrived looking absolutely fabulous, supported by the staff, who also looked every part in their glittering costumes. They wowed everyone with their choice of attire for the evening and of course, their dance moves during the night!
The students had a fabulous evening, dancing to all their favourite tunes.
This year we had our Prom King & Queen competition, and the winners wowed everyone throughout the evening. We would like to congratulate (again) AA & WT, such deserved winners. Thanks go to all the staff supporting the students, to the staff who gave up their time to decorate the marquee in the afternoon, to the staff who came along in the evening and most importantly the students who had a fabulous evening.
T his year’s Graduation took place on Friday 26th July, our last day of term at Rowden House School, it was a perfect celebration of our amazing graduates! Thank you to Lucy, Emma & Polly for all your hard work preparing the students. It was such a special afternoon with our students poised between their last school day at Rowden and the next huge chapter of their lives. A lovely & lively reception followed the ceremony. Thanks to the planning committee & helpers for setting everything up during the morning & Ruth for the very special afternoon cream teas for everyone to enjoy. For those Graduates who leave this year, we wish you well, we are extremely proud of you & what you have achieved whilst being with us at Rowden House School. We want to say a special goodbye and thank you to those families who have joined us on this journey and with this Graduation; who have now finished their years here. Thank you for your support during the years and remember, you are always part of the Rowden family!
CIRCUS EVENINGS*
What is Circus Starr?
We believe in a world where anything is possible. We understand that attending mainstream events can be difficult for children with additional needs or families in difficult circumstances which is why we’ve created a tut -free zone; a show in which shouting out, dancing and jumping up and down are expected.
At our circus, everyone is absolutely encouraged to let go of their worries, get involved, and be themselves.
So, what we are is inclusive, exciting, non-judgemental, fun, accessible and magical and we bring all of this to you! Get excited, be excited and remember that excitement for years to come – we look forward to welcoming you.

ABOUT US
The aim of the Willow Trust is to provide a unique opportunity for people of all ages with a disability or serious illness to enjoy a therapeutic day out on the water. Each year up to 7,000 children and adults with disabilities and serious illnesses spend a day on board our two fully wheelchair accessible broad- beamed boats on the Gloucester-Sharpness Canal. Both boats, Spirit of Freedom II and Leonard Matchan, were purpose built for the Willow Trust and give children and adults with disabilities a day of freedom they never dreamt possible.
