A MESSAGE FROM HEAD OF YEAR 10
It has been another great week at Waldegrave and I am so proud of how many students have started Year 10 with a positive attitude and a determination to do well. It has also been good to see so many students are taking part in extracurricular activities outside of school. Keep this up! Waldegrave is hosting our first ever Wildlife Photography Competition and we would love to see some entries from our Year 10 pupils. You can find more details in the advert further in the bulletin. Well done to the following students who have the most epraise points in their tutor group so far. This is a real achievement, especially so early on in the school year. 10EJO-Tabby S 10PGU- Keiva M 10ERU-Sana H 10FWD-Emily A and Nanne V 10PGO- Isabelle E and Summer J 10STH- Cara H 10SPI- Alessia O 10FGR - Jasmeet S Every day after school homework club takes place in the Zone, this runs until 4pm Monday - Thursday and until 3:30 on a Friday. Students are encouraged to attend if they need support with homework or classwork. There are assistant teachers there assigned to KS4 who can help with any questions from attending students. On Friday 4th of October we have our Macmillan coffee morning cake sale. Macmillan’s Coffee Morning is one of the biggest fundraising events to support people living with cancer. Last year Waldegrave raised £964.18 in support of the charity. Students are encouraged to bake nut free cakes at home and bring these into school next Friday to sell at the coffee morning. They should also bring in some cash if they want to buy cakes on the day and help us raise money for this great cause!

BOOK OF THE MONTH
‘The Handmaid’s Tale’ - Margaret Atwood This book follows the Handmaid of a wealthy family as she struggles to fight for her rights in a dystopian society where women are used as breeding machines. While those in charge use threats to suppress the desires of the Handmaids, nothing can stop the desire she has to reunite with her daughter who was cruelly taken away as the repressive state was gaining power. Atwood combines fictional aspects with real world issues such as oppression of women and power divide to create a story that will make you simultaneously devastated and filled with motivation to ensure that we continue to fight for what all women everywhere deserve- the right to choose. ~ Isla
