You will be aware of the tragic death of Emma Newton, one of our sixth form students, following an accident.
Our thoughts are with Emma's family and friends.
Emma was a highly talented, inspirational dancer and contributed enormously to the performing arts at QEHS. She will always be remembered not only for her talent but for her lively, vivacious personality and her beautiful smile. She touched the lives of so many.
A fund has been set up for Emma in celebration of her life. Her parents have chosen to establish a permanent fund in Emma's name with the Community Foundation which will grow in her memory. The Emma Newton Fund will be used to make grants and donations in Emma's name, to those young people who need a helping hand in pursuing their dreams within the field of performing arts, forever.
The links to the fund are www.justgiving.com/EmmaLNewton or www.emmanewtonfund.com. If you feel you want to contribute please follow these direct links. Explore the websites if you want more information about the fund and up and coming events.
