  • Issue Number 56 16 November 2016 Michaelmas
    Issue Number 56 View this email in your browser 16 November 2016 I hope you all had a lovely half term with your daughters; it’s been a busy time since then. The Lower Sixth Lunch introduced the Sixth Form programme we run at Heathfield as well as celebrating our great GCSE results from the Summer. Parents, girls and staff all came together for a wonderful lunch prepared by Brookwood, followed by a presentation in the Assembly Hall and I’m sure that the pictures underneath underline the pride we have in the girls’ achievements. Our Assessment Days for Forms I and III have gone well too; it is always so special to see the nervous girls who arrive in the morning become confident spirited young women by the afternoon; an appropriate metaphor for the whole school! I have been busy too, putting out the word for Heathfield at prep schools and at the Independent Schools’ Show which has been very encouraging. As well, there has been a steady stream of parents coming in the doo to visit us. The girls, as ever, have been busy and this newsletter will outline the many and varied activities in which they have been involved. I wish you all a lovely few weeks and I look forward to seeing you at Nicky Stalls, if not before. Mrs Gardiner Legge – Headmistress Michaelmas Term Assembly Michaelmas Term was rounded off nicely on Friday 21 October during our Half Term Celebration Assembly, where we publically acknowledged all the fantastic achievements of the academic year so far.
