Letter to Parents and Students 12th July 2024
12th July 2024
Dear Parents and students
Thank you for your support of your daughters and sons and of course of us over this past week.
This week, groups of Year 10 students have undertaken Geography GCSE Fieldwork in the local area, whilst large numbers of students supported the full range of Subject Areas for our Year 5 Open Evening last night.
Next week, Friday July 19th is the last day of term. We will run a Tag Trek and finish at midday. The day will run as a non-uniform day with students and staff donating £1, and the proceeds donated to Great Ormond Street Hospital and the Evelina London Children’s Hospital. Please ensure students wear appropriate footwear for the trek and that they bring a hat, sun cream and water. School transport will depart shortly after midday.
This week we have been talking to students about the Work Packs we are providing in each subject for students to complete over the summer holiday. These will be set out in a weekly format, so students can easily see what tasks they need to complete in a given week.
Maintaining good and regular study habits over the summer holiday will support them to do well in September and the tasks we set will still leave plenty of time for leisure and valuable family time! We will of course be recognizing students’ efforts as we start back out in September.
Please see and share the following signposting leaflets with information to support parents in keeping their children safe over these upcoming weeks.
Keeping Young People Safe – Student Guide
Keeping Young People Safe – Parent Guide
Keeping Children safe during Community Activities, After School Clubs and Tuition
We also spent time today in Academy Tutor time discussing strategies for maintaining well-being over the long summer holiday. Family Friday
Here again, is our Digital Library We want all our students to read for pleasure for 20 minutes a day over the summer. Students who read daily understanding and achieve so much more highly across their school subjects.
Yours sincerely
Charles Joseph
Principal
