headmistress award<br />
This week I am delighted to announce that my<br />
Headmistress Award goes to Maddie Boyce for<br />
an excellent story, ‘The Key’. Her story was full<br />
of wonderful descriptions and her punctuation<br />
was practically faultless.<br />

Thomas’ U10 Netball Tournament: On Saturday the<br />
Class 5A team played in the annual Thomas’s Netball<br />
Tournament. Despite the<br />
cold and wet conditions,<br />
the girls played really<br />
well and won four of their<br />
matches. Annika Mylne<br />
was awarded <strong>Broomwood</strong><br />
player of the day, and<br />
special mention must go to<br />
Mimi Snell. Thank you so<br />
much for the wonderful support from all the parents, and to<br />
Miss Kelly for all the excellent coaching.<br />

musical notes<br />
Music Assembly: Please join us to hear performances from<br />
pupils from all sites in the <strong>Hall</strong> on Friday 23 November at<br />
8.30. The concert will feature a wide range of instruments<br />
including trumpet, cello, piano, vocal solos and duets.<br />
Microjazz Masterclass: We are very lucky to have<br />
Christopher Norton (composer of the microjazz series)<br />
coming to give us a masterclass on jazz and improvisation.<br />
Pupils from the Upper School and Northcote Lodge will<br />
have the chance to perform pieces to him and work on<br />
their improvisation skills. At the end of the masterclass<br />
‘Microjazz’ music books will be available to purchase for all<br />
instruments. (Most books will be priced at £8.99 or £9.99.)<br />
The children love learning this music as it is rhythmically<br />
exciting and always impresses their friends. The duet books<br />
are particularly popular as it makes learning an instrument<br />
a sociable activity – a great Christmas present, perhaps?<br />
Parents are most welcome to attend this event.<br />

Rehearsals for the Class 5 Christmas play, ‘Sam’s Three<br />
Wishes’ are going really well, and Miss Owen and I are<br />
delighted by the hard work every girl is putting into her<br />
performance. I would like to remind all Class 5 girls that<br />
lines need to be learnt in preparation for our final week<br />
of rehearsals next week; please remember to take your<br />
scripts home with you for the Long Weekend so you can<br />
practise with family members or in front of the mirror!<br />

class 6 bicycle training<br />
We are running a four day cycle training course for Class 6<br />
from Tuesday 27 to Friday 30 November. This will be run by<br />
Wandsworth Council’s approved cycle training instructors,<br />
and pupils taking part must be able to ride a bike. They will be<br />
expected to bring a roadworthy bike, a bike lock and wear a<br />
cycle helmet. We have one space still available for this course.<br />
If you are interested in your daughter taking part do contact<br />
me as soon as possible on p.powell@northwoodschools.com.<br />
Please note that no bike should be left on the premises at the<br />
end of the day unless firmly secured to an immovable object<br />
(see Note from the Head above).<br />
