We also welcomed back 2 former pupils as our guest speakers, **Megan FInnigan** and **Callum Stridgeon** who were **Head Girl** and **Head Boy** in 2014 (which was Mr Dumican's first year as Headteacher). We were delighted to welcome Megan and Callum back as they have both been tremendous advocates for SEACHS since they left. **Megan** is a professional footballer who represented England at Everton youth level and went through the Academy at Everton FC before playing for their women's team just a year after she left school in 2015. She was named Club Captain of Everton Women's Club ahead of the 2023-24 season. Megan has featured in national and local news as well appearing on podcasts and in newspaper articles. **Callum** is a customer communications and literature lead at the Royal Bank of Scotland International branch. When Callum left school he completed his A levels at Winstanley College, followed by a Geography degree at Newcastle University. Upon leaving university, he started a graduate scheme with Natwest Group and moved onto his current role, where he manages a team of colleagues and travels abroad regularly to deliver the roadmap of communications to retail, business and commercial customers. We were also delighted to welcome our 2023-24 Head Boy, W**illiam Smith** and Head Girl, **Poppy O'Donoghue**, who both delivered wonderful speeches to their friends in the audience. The evening was another great success and it was so wonderful to see our former students looking so well and happy as they collected their certificates, presented by Chair of Governors, Steve Westhead. #neverleaveeddies! ![](https://arrowsmith.wigan.sch.uk/images/news/PresentationEve/15.JPG)![](https://arrowsmith.wigan.sch.uk/images/news/PresentationEve/16.JPG) ![](https://arrowsmith.wigan.sch.uk/images/news/PresentationEve/19.JPG) ![](https://arrowsmith.wigan.sch.uk/images/news/PresentationEve/22.JPG)![](https://arrowsmith.wigan.sch.uk/images/news/PresentationEve/21.JPG)![](https://arrowsmith.wigan.sch.uk/images/news/PresentationEve/2.JPG)![](https://arrowsmith.wigan.sch.uk/images/news/PresentationEve/1.JPG)![](https://arrowsmith.wigan.sch.uk/images/news/PresentationEve/14.JPG) [ Y8 Rugby Team win the next round of the NW Counties competition! ](https://arrowsmith.wigan.sch.uk/news/2024-11-15-y8-rugby-team-win-the-next-round-of-the-nw-counties-competition) [ Y7 Netball Success! ](https://arrowsmith.wigan.sch.uk/news/2024-11-18-y7-netball-success) ### Our School - [Headteacher's Welcome](https://arrowsmith.wigan.sch.uk/our-school/welcome) - [Mission Statement](https://arrowsmith.wigan.sch.uk/our-school/mission-statement) - [Staff](https://arrowsmith.wigan.sch.uk/our-school/staff) - [Latest News](https://arrowsmith.wigan.sch.uk/news) - [Family Handbook](https://arrowsmith.wigan.sch.uk/our-school/family-handbook) - [Climate Change Action Plan 2025-26](https://arrowsmith.wigan.sch.uk/our-school/climate-action-plan-2025-26) - [Governors](https://arrowsmith.wigan.sch.uk/our-school/welcome/governors) - [Examination Results and School Performance ](https://arrowsmith.wigan.sch.uk/our-school/results) - [Primary Transition ](https://arrowsmith.wigan.sch.uk/our-school/primary-transition) - [Job Vacancies](https://arrowsmith.wigan.sch.uk/job-vacancies) - [Train to Teach Here ](http://catholicsd.org.uk) - [International Partnership](https://arrowsmith.wigan.sch.uk/our-school/international-partnership) - [Alumni](https://arrowsmith.wigan.sch.uk/our-school/alumni) ### [Latest News](https://arrowsmith.wigan.sch.uk/news) [![Image of Year 7 Take Part in an Engaging Theatre Workshop](https://files.schudio.com/stedmundarrowsmith/imagecache/150x150c/news/IMG_5935.jpg)](https://arrowsmith.wigan.sch.uk/news/2026-11-09-year-7-take-part-in-an-engaging-theatre-workshop) #### [Year 7 Take Part in an Engaging Theatre Workshop](https://arrowsmith.wigan.sch.uk/news/2026-11-09-year-7-take-part-in-an-engaging-theatre-workshop) 9 November 2026 [![Image of Former St Edmund Arrowsmith Pupil Inspires Young Reporters](https://files.schudio.com/stedmundarrowsmith/imagecache/150x150c/news/IMG_5873.jpg)](https://arrowsmith.wigan.sch.uk/news/2026-11-09-former-st-edmund-arrowsmith-pupil-inspires-young-reporters) #### [Former St Edmund Arrowsmith Pupil Inspires Young Reporters](https://arrowsmith.wigan.sch.uk/news/2026-11-09-former-st-edmund-arrowsmith-pupil-inspires-young-reporters) 9 November 2026 [![Image of Year 7 Student Supports Cancer Charity with Brave Hair Donation](https://files.schudio.com/stedmundarrowsmith/imagecache/150x150c/news/IMG-20261023-WA0006(1).jpg)](https://arrowsmith.wigan.sch.uk/news/2026-11-09-year-7-student-supports-cancer-charity-with-brave-hair-donation) #### [Year 7 Student Supports Cancer Charity with Brave Hair Donation](https://arrowsmith.wigan.sch.uk/news/2026-11-09-year-7-student-supports-cancer-charity-with-brave-hair-donation) 9 November 2026 ![St Edmund Arrowsmith Catholic High School](https://files.schudio.com/stedmundarrowsmith/images/logo/Citrix-Logo-Large.png) ### Contact Us **St Edmund Arrowsmith Catholic High School** Rookery Avenue Ashton-in-Makerfield.
