A MESSAGE FROM HEAD OF YEAR 8
It has been another fantastic week for Year 8! We have seen great focus in lessons and heard some really positive feedback from their subject teachers. Please be aware that many of our extra curricular PE and Music clubs have begun and the list has now been posted on all Google Classrooms. If your child would like to find out more about it then please ask them to speak to their Form Tutor. Other clubs which are subject specific will also be announced over this week and next, so please do speak to your child and encourage them to get involved. Well done to 8EFR who are topping the epraise league table for Year 8! They are closely followed by 8EMU and 8SGZ. Keep up the fabulous work everyone! There is a Scholastic Book Fair taking place in the school conference room next week. There are over 200 titles for students to choose from with prices starting from as little as £2.99. We would be grateful for your support as each book purchased can earn rewards to help us get free books for our school library. Payment can be made online or students can bring cash or card with them on the day.

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
MACMILLAN COFFEE MORNING
Macmillan Coffee Morning has returned to Waldegrave for another year! On Tuesday 26 September we will be hosting a bake sale in the main hall to raise money for the MacMillan Cancer Charity. We are encouraging students to bake a cake or sweet treat in theme with their house colours. Please remember when baking that nut-based products must be avoided. If you’re not up for baking, you can still come and buy some cakes on the day. Sixth Formers will be invited into the hall at break time whilst Years 7-11 will be allowed to purchase cakes at lunch time, so don’t forget to bring some coins into school! Last year Waldegrave raised £1100 in support of the charity. Let’s try our best to raise even more this year!
