Denton Community College...



Above is an artist impression of what the college will look like, the college's website has been opened but theres not a lot on it yet. For those that don't know the site of the college is being buit on Edgerton Park's Playing fields, Edgerton Park and Two Trees School are closing and merging into the new college or something like that. To me this seems strange, why do this? If its to be named a college then why not open a normal college for people that have left school. The nearest college is either Ashton or Stockport both of which I have been a student off for a couple of years at each and highly reccommend both. Anyway these are just my personal views on the matter, why are they closing both schools anyway?, I'll have a look into this when I get a bit of time.

Hopefully the website will be updated very soon I should be there over the Christmas holidays and there for the Christmas lights next month. If you have anything to add to the website images etc please upload or email them to me. The website isn't getting updating as much as it should, I live in North Wales so I can't just pop there and take a few photographs when I feel like it. I need the people that use the website to send me stuff, new photos, old photos, postcards, videos, newspaper cuttings anything really to do with Denton and don't forget Haughton Green...

Thanks for reading enjoy the website,
