Waldegrave School Autumn Magazine 2022

WELCOME

Well done to all students in KS3 for a fantastic first half term, and thank you to those at home for your ongoing support. Students have embraced all the extra-curricular clubs and enrichment opportunities available to them and I really enjoyed the Y7 Thames Young Mariners trips as well as being taught British Sign Language by members of the BSL Club.

The MacMillan Coffee Morning was a highlight this term, raising money for a very worth - while cause. Students and staff alike did their part by baking some wonderful treats. As someone who is not particularly blessed in terms of culinary skills, I was very happy to support the day by eating as much as possible! Literacy continues to be a key focus around school with reading taking place in tutor time and beyond, and staff are sharing books they are currently reading with their classes. The use of chromebooks to support the learning of students continues to be a key learning focus. Many students in Y7 have recently received their chromebook and a new trolley of spare machines will be made available for students in Y7 and Y8 without their own device.
