A MESSAGE FROM HEAD OF YEAR 13
It has been another busy week for Year 13. We are pleased to say that all University applications have been sent off and we look forward to hearing about all the offers coming through.
Thank you to all who attended the Year 13 PCM on Wednesday evening. It is always a pleasure for our teachers to speak with parents/carers and pass on how pleased they are with the hard work and enthusiasm all students are showing in lessons. There have been two exciting trips for the Year 13 Art and Photography students this week. Our Year 13 Art students visited the Orleans Gallery on Thursday and our Photography students had a trip today to the Taylor Wessing Photography exhibition. All students enjoyed themselves and have found the trips extremely helpful, giving them inspiration and support for their final portfolio and examinations. Year 13 mocks will be taking place after the half-term break, from the 24 February- 7 March. The final mock timetable has been sent out and subject teachers will be informing students as to what topics will be covered in the exams. Have a good week!
MRS PUGH, HEAD OF YEAR 13
BOOK OF THE MONTH
‘Hag-seed’ - Margaret Atwood
A marvellous retelling of the infamous Shakespearian play ‘The Tempest’. The story is weaved into the life of troubled, grieving Felix, theatre director, as he is exiled out of his town by his closest friends. He tries to avenge those who betrayed him and come to terms with the loss of his daughter as he directs ‘The Tempest’ with inmates as the actors as part of his new job. Atwood’s clear intelligence in Shakespeare’s work along with her unique, compelling writing style makes this book perfect for people who are interested yet perhaps intimidated by the complexity of Shakespeare.
