  • High School News
    igh School News H Issue 4: May 2013 V 1883 Dear Parents/Carers As usual this is the time of the year when we say goodbye to Years 11 and 13 as they begin their GCSEs and A Levels. Both years have been excellent ambassadors for the school in so many different ways. We wish them all the very best for their examinations and hope that they will reap the rewards of all their hard work. Friday will certainly be a very emotional day in many respects as Year 13s’ journey is finishing at the High School. We hope that they have enjoyed their time with us and that we have contributed to their development in so many different ways. Year 13 were just Year 7s when I arrived as Headteacher so for me this will be a particularly fond farewell. I hope that they will stay in touch and remember their time at the High School for Girls with great fondness. As for Year 11, we hope to welcome them back into the High School Sixth Form in September. Year 12 have also stepped down for their AS examinations and we are looking forward to welcoming them back for a work experience briefing on 7th June and then they will be on a week’s work experience from the 10th-14th June. A2 lessons will then begin, in earnest, on the 17th June. This term there has been a number of memorable events, which you can read about in the newsletter. I do just need to mention a few: the Birthday Celebration, the Sixth Form Leavers’ Concert and the Sports Review evening.

  • ACRONYM 11 - Round 11
    ACRONYM 11 - Round 11 1. John Gemberling starred in a short-lived Adult Swim series titled for a "Fat Guy Stuck ​ in" this thing. A band including Odd Future members Syd and Matt Martians is named for this thing. A character on The IT Crowd incorrectly surmises that this thing fits entirely ​ ​ inside a (*) small, delicate box. In a 2004 presidential debate, George W. Bush confusingly ​ pluralized this construct, whose creation is sometimes misleadingly credited to Al Gore. A "series of tubes" is one poor definition of, for 10 points, what construct that contains the World Wide Web? ANSWER: the internet (accept Fat Guy Stuck in Internet or internets) <Nelson> ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ 2. The chorus of Trey Songz' "Say Aah" mentions one of these events. A Selena Gomez ​ song about this type of event repeats the line "blow your dreams away with me." A song by Jeremih calls one of these events the "best day of the year." Another song titled for one of these events by (*) 2 Chainz repeats the request that "if I die, bury me inside the Louis store" ​ and describes "all I want" for this occurrence. 50 Cent's "In Da Club" declares "Go shawty, it's", for 10 points, what annual occurrence which Jay-Z described in his song "December 4th"? ANSWER: birthdays (accept Birthday Song) <Golden> ​ ​ ​ ​ 3. This man's questionable romance-related works include the dating website "Delightful" ​ and the non-fiction book Act Like a Lady, Think Like a Man. Beginning in 2017, this man ​ ​ began hosting the Shark Tank-esque reality series Funderdome.
