Dear Parents and students        

Students in Years 10 and 12 have sat Walking Talking Mock (teachers help) and then Pre public (teachers don’t help) examinations in the Sports Hall this week, as we start their preparations for the experience of Public Examinations in just under a year’s time.

Teachers have also awarded 1548 Excellent Effort points this week.

Enrichment Activities and Educational Visits over this past week have been numerous: we have been particularly proud of those students, who have volunteered to water the plants and flowers in Hythe to support Hythe in Bloom, as well as our choir, who performed at the Leas Cliff Hall with 250 primary school students this week. Elsewhere, our sportswomen and sportsmen took part in the District Athletics Festival at Three Hills Sports Park in Folkestone and our Sixth Form Dancers performed at the Battle of Britain Museum in Capel-Le-Ferne, whilst A level Geography students visited Folkestone in connection with their A level Field Trip.

We are looking forward to welcoming parents to Sports’ Day next Thursday, June 27th from 1.30pm. You will be able to sign in at the various entrances to the site. Students should remember to bring plenty of water to stay hydrated, and we recommend they apply sun-cream in the morning and bring some with them to school, along with a hat, as there is little shade on the school field. Students will need cash to purchase from the BBQ at lunchtime and for the ice cream van. The Terrace Restaurant and Saga Canteen will both be open as normal at morning break time.

On Sports’ Day, students may wear either their full school uniform or their Brockhill PE kit to school. However, we will not tolerate any non-uniform or non Brockhill PE kit items (e.g. beachwear, non Brockhill PE shorts etc.).

Please do ensure your daughter or son reads for 20 minutes a day. Reading is just so helpful to student development in all their subjects. Digital Library

Thank you for all your support this week and have a lovely weekend.  

Yours Sincerely,  

Charles Joseph
