A MESSAGE FROM HEAD OF YEAR 10
It has been great to see Year 10 working hard in their lessons and continuing to impress their teachers with their hard work. There have been a few subject assessments this term, but it has been wonderful to see students busily revising and supporting one another in order to adequately prepare. Keep this up!
Well done to 10PGU for getting the most epraise points this week. Congratulations as well to Annabelle R, Isabelle E and Pia H for being the three top epraise students in Year 10 so far! Great work!
Students are reminded that the school runs a homework club until 4:30 everyday and until 3:30 on Fridays. There are always designated members of staff there to support KS4 students with any homework that they need help with. If students are struggling in a subject, they are also encouraged to talk to their subject teacher, so that they can give them help and advice. Many departments also run support classes after school which students can ask their subject teachers about for more info.
Have a good week!

BOOK OF THE MONTH
‘The Hunger Games’ by Suzanne Collins
In a dystopian future, the capital holds annual games where one boy and one girl (aged 12-18) from each of the 12 districts is chosen to fight to the death in an arena. The games are televised and shown across the country as a reminder to the labourers in the district that they are powerless against the capital. When Katniss’ sister has her name called during the annual reaping, Katniss volunteers to take her place as a daring act of sacrifice. The contrast between the glamour of the capital and the harsh conditions of the districts is an eye opening com- mentary on the dangers of political corruption and capitalism.
