A MESSAGE FROM HEAD OF YEAR 11
Year 11 returned to their normal timetable this week after successfully completing their mock exams. Next week they will start to receive feedback from their subject teachers as to how they performed in these exams. Congratulations to 11SAS who are currently top of the leaderboard in Year 11 for epraise points. The top three standings are as follows: 1st 11SAS with a total of 366 points, 2nd 11PON with 277, and 3rd 11ERU with 251 points. Last Thursday our Year 10/11 Netball team had a match against Turing House. This was a brilliant game, they showed excellent teamwork and determination which all paid off as they went on to win 37-3! On Wednesday afternoon, 8 of our students, along with 4 Twickenham School students, participated in the Rotary Young Chef Competition. All students did an excellent job, creating some beautiful dishes. We welcomed the Mayor, Councillor Suzette Nicolson to present the awards to the winners! The winner and runners up were Connie, Aditi and Emilia in Year 10 but I know that our Year 11 competitors also wowed the judges and should be equally proud! Wednesday evening our Drama students went to see Woman in Black at Richmond Theatre. They were gripped by this spooky tale and amazed how the actors created so many characters and locations with their cast of 2 and minimal props and set! Students are looking forward to analysing the production in more detail in preparation for their Live Theatre review. Good Luck to our U16 Basketball team who are taking part in the RSSP tournament next Wednesday after school. We look forward to hearing about how they performed in next week’s bulletin. Next week we have an INSET day on Monday. Students are not expected to attend school, however those who are involved in the Annie production will need to come in for their dress rehearsal. Good luck to the Year 11 students who are performing in the school’s production of Annie next week. We cannot wait to see the show, we know a countless amount of hard work and rehearsal hours have been put into this. Break a leg!

BOOK OF THE MONTH
Tender is the night - F.Scott Fitzgerald
“I want to give a really BAD party. I mean it. I want to give a party where there’s a brawl and seductions and people going home with their feelings hurt and women passed out in the cabinet de toilette. You wait and see.” Tender is the Night by F. Scott Fitzgerald is a classic novel set in the 1920s in the French Riviera. Like his more famous novel, The Great Gatsby, it follows the lives of the elite as they strive for influence and power in a changing world. If you want a challenging but rewarding read, I highly recommend this book and Fitzgerald’s other works.
