A MESSAGE FROM HEAD OF YEAR 8
I would like to congratulate Year 8 on their positive attitude. So many teachers have commented on how well Year 8 have been doing in their lessons and in their extra curricular activities. Let’s keep it up for the rest of the year! The Battle of the Books annual competition for Richmond Borough secondary schools took place at Twickenham School on Wednesday which a group of Year 8 students attended. The competition was tough but our students really enjoyed the event. They were enthusiastic and collaborative, worked brilliantly as a team; and were awarded a very close third place. Congratulations and thank you to: Ava S, Nimisha C, Alexa M, Meg S, Nashwa Z, Emma W, Amelie W, Coco B. We had the Year 8 Rounders Tournament last week. They came third place overall. Jasmine was Waldegrave’s player of the tournament, scoring either a full or half rounder in 4 of the 5 matches she played. The team performed excellently, beating Teddington and Turing House.
Well done to 8PFO for getting the most epraise points in Year 8. Second was 8SPI and third 8STH. Congratulations!
The end of the term is drawing close, but this is a reminder to Year 8 that standards still need to be kept up in regards to uniform and participation and behaviour in lessons. Let’s end the Year off positively!

Anna is a 17 year old high school senior who lives in Atlanta. Circumstances force her to move to Paris where she attends the School of America in Paris and meets St. Clair, Meredith, Rashmi and Josh. As time passes, Anna becomes part of the group not knowing love is in the air. American with a twist of French! ~ Recommended by Jiya K, Year 7 student
