Dear Parents, Guardians, Friends and Family,<br />
We had a great start to the week when we received the information that Mr. Fowler, our<br />
Head of Secondary, had become a father. Baby, wife and Mr. Fowler are all doing well and<br />
I’m sure you will all join me in congratulating them and wishing them well.<br />
The end of an academic term is always one of the busiest times of the school year. There<br />
are assessments to complete, reports to be written and Parent-Teacher meetings to happen.<br />
Please take note of the details regarding your child’s Parent-Teacher meeting this term.<br />

Year 10 English<br />
Today the Year 10s were recreating the final scenes of their Drama exam text: A View from<br />
the Bridge. Here is Nick playing the furious Eddie Carbone. Also, below is a still from the<br />
final moments when Eddie and Marco fight, resulting in Eddie's death.
Year 3 - Measuring<br />
Year Three have been using rulers to accurately measure shapes in our Maths lessons so<br />
that we can find their perimeter and area. The students know how important it is to<br />
concentrate because measuring with centimetres and millimetres is not as easy as it looks!<br />
School Photos<br />
The school photos took place this. Individual, class and friendship group photos were taken.<br />
Mr Thomas's Year 9 tutor group had fun taking their friendship photos on Wednesday....<br />
IGCSE Mock Exams<br />
The Year 11 students started their IGCSE mock exams this week. These are important<br />
exams and give students and teachers a chance to review and make intervention plans to<br />
ensure that everyone reaches their potential. The exams are taken under full exam<br />
conditions and will continue all through next week as well. Good luck Y11!<br />
Next week is the final full week of Term 1 and it is set to be another busy one. A reminder<br />
that in the final week of this term we are closed to observe the public holiday on December<br />
5th and finish at 12.00 on December 9th.
I wish you all a peaceful weekend,<br />
David Figes<br />
Principal
