Waldegrave School Autumn Magazine 2022

WELCOME

The Sixth Form is really friendly and inviting and has provided a motivating space to enjoy and excel at our A-level studies. The variety of extracurriculars (basketball, journalism club, football, netball, to name a few) has been a great addition to sixth form life. In Y13, there is the opportunity to run for the Sixth Form Student Leadership Team (6SLT) made up of a Head Girl, Head Boy and Deputies. Being given a chance to organise student-led events for the sixth form has been really exciting and it is great that the school gives the students an opportunity to improve the space that we use. During my first term as Head Girl, I have been able to partake in so many amazing opportunities, from the Macmillan coffee morning to speaking in front of parents in the open mornings. These experiences have given me so much courage and helped me develop a confidence I never had before. Alongside being Head Girl, stepping into the final year of GCSEs is exciting and daunting. However, all the help and support given by teachers has reassured us and helped prepare us for our mocks. I am now really looking forward to some of the fun activities coming up such as the staff panto and the Christmas concert which will bring the school community together. Being Head Girl has been a big responsibility, and I am very grateful to the Deputy Headgirls and House Captains who I have really enjoyed working with to make these events such a success. I am excited to continue helping make memories for everyone here at Waldegrave. ~Jiayi G, Y11 Head Girl We are busy planning the Prom to reward everyone’s hard work for their A-levels, setting up a debate club, arranging World Cup sweepstakes and will sell candy canes at Christmas time, with the proceeds going to charity. We hope to come up with more exciting ideas that involve both Y12 and Y13 and contribute to the already positive environment at Waldegrave. ~ Franci L. & Arvin Z, Sixth Form’s Head Girl & Head Boy
