Dear Parents and Carers<br />
Bridge over Weston Way<br />
PARENTAL WEEKLY UPDATE – <strong>15th</strong> <strong>March</strong> <strong>2019</strong><br />
(available on our website)<br />
I will be seeking your support to build a bridge over Weston Way which connects our school to the sports centre. I<br />
will be asking you to sign a petition (online) which I can present to the County Council (Highways Committee). Our<br />
students show great maturity and responsibility when crossing the road to and from the sports centre, but to make<br />
it even safer, a bridge from the inside of our school site to the inside of the sports centre would ensure all members<br />
of the community can cross safely and without risk. Students from our Geography department are currently surveying<br />
how many students use the crossing at lunchtimes. Please do keep an eye out for this email and if you have<br />
friends and family who live in Baldock they may wish to support us as well.<br />
Congratulations to all our students involved in performances this week. The Spring Concert on Wednesday evening<br />
showcased our very talented musicians and the quality was extremely high. The year 11 Performing Arts and Drama<br />
students presented their work on Thursday evening to a full audience and with great authority.<br />
Many of you will be aware that The Green Knights Team have introduced a<br />
new plastic bottle lids recycling scheme and there is a competition between<br />
the houses to see who can collect the most. Yr8 student, Lili certainly<br />
contributed today by bringing in hundreds of plastic lids and bottle tops .<br />
I hope that all year 10 parents are signed up for the Parents’ Evening next<br />
week (Wednesday 20 th ). Please do bring your child with you, in full school<br />
uniform.<br />
Parents of students in our sixth form are reminded that we have a Student<br />
Finance evening on Monday at 7.00pm.<br />
I hope you will take the time to complete our parental survey, we really do<br />
value your views. Please see further details and the link on the next page.<br />
I am looking forward to the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award evening next Thursday.<br />
As one of the biggest centres for DofE in the South East, Our guest of<br />
honour, Mr James Blake, CEO of the Youth Hostel Association, cannot fail to<br />
be impressed with the sheer number of young people who complete the award here at KTS. I look forward to seeing<br />
you there.<br />
Kind regards,<br />
