A MESSAGE FROM HEAD OF YEAR 9
It has been great to welcome Year 9 students back for a brand new school year. This is a fresh start for all students and a chance to really get stuck back into school life. In form time this week, students were reminded of the school routines, as well as places that they could go to for support if they needed it. There are a number of extra curricular clubs already starting up. This is a perfect opportunity for students to try something new this year. Click here to view the Autumn 2023 extracurricular timetable. Even though we are only a few days into the new term, many students have been excelling in lessons and gaining lots of epraise points. Congratulations especially to 9SPI and 9EPA for making the top 10 forms in the school for epraise points this week. Keep up the good work!
Well done to Camila K in 9STH for passing her Grade 2 Trinity exam before the Summer break. Congratulations to Nina C in 9SPI for passing her Grade 2 Guitar exam with a Distinction.
As we are entering a new school year, we have been reminding the students of our uniform policy and the expectations that we have as a school. I just wanted to especially highlight that students should only be wearing one stud in each ear and that necklaces can be worn but should not be visible. Click here to view our full school uniform policy. Well done everyone for making a fantastic start to the term! MRS PORTEOUS, HEAD OF YEAR 9 BOOK OF THE MONTH The Sun is Also a Star by Nicola Yoon The sun is also a star is told through the perspective of two teenagers whose lives cross paths and so they spend 12 fateful hours together. It explores how they struggle with parental relationships and expectations, coping with pressures of racism and immigration and the meaning of love and life. ~ Recommended by Marina M-B, Year 11 student

We are really excited to be rehearsing our latest school production, Annie. As ever parental support would be very much appreciated. In particular we hope someone may have a free standing door frame with a door in it to donate as part of the set design. The help of a theatre lighting expert to offer specialist advice would also be very welcome.
