Chestnut News Date: 9 Feb 2018 Issue No: 66 Chestnut News Date: 9 Feb 2018 Issue No: 66 MESSAGE FROM THE HEADTEACHER Dear Parents It seems like this half-term has flown by and that it was only yesterday that I was welcoming everybody back from the Christmas holidays. This half-term has been incredibly busy with staff and students eagerly preparing for the upcoming GCSE and A Level exams. I do hope that as well as revising hard, students take the time to immerse themselves in something that they really enjoy outside of school over the half-term break. Next half-term will also be incredibly busy and it is important that students strike the right balance between work and play. Over half-term we are expecting the demolition of our old building to commence. The demolition is expected to take around 10 weeks and we are looking forward to finally having a view out of our new build windows. Although the demolition phase of the project is behind schedule we are optimistic that our students will be able to enjoy their new playground in the very early part of the 2018-2019 academic year. In the next newsletter I hope to be able to share some photographs of the demolition with you. Finally, I am delighted to announce that our very own Ms Taylor has been awarded a Jack Petchey Leader award for the work she has done in Chestnut Grove in engaging our students in promoting equality. Huge congratulations to Ms Taylor for the inspiring work she has done, and continues to do, at Chestnut Grove. Have a wonderful half-term! Christian Kingsley Headteacher Safeguarding Your child’s safety is of paramount concern to us. If you have any concerns over the personal development, behaviour or welfare of your child or any other child within Chestnut Grove Academy that cannot be resolved by the child’s teacher, tutor or RSL, please contact the Designated Safeguarding Lead (DSL) Mikayla Jolley on 0208 772 2545 or Ms Jackson on 0208 772 2510.

The hosts took advantage of a well-balanced offensive game plan, scoring from inside and outside the paint, with short and long-range jumpers as well as lay ups by moving the ball around and seeking wide-open shots. Equally impressive was the CGA quick defence. They recorded several key turnovers that the mighty EGA team were able to convert into points. Both teams engaged in prolific scoring in the first half, before the home team seized momentum in the third quarter to gain the substantial lead and extending it in the final period to record a well-earned 57 to 35 victory. CGA were led by high-point scorer Andy Meksqimi, who poured in a fantastic 27 points. He also led the squad in the rebounding department with 19 boards! CGA was represented by: Andy Meksmiqi, Gus T-Hoyte, Cailum Kham, Tiarnan Matthews, Walid Bondjellab, Keifa Espina, Kamose Samuels-Regis, Rashan Atkinson, Jermaine Robinson, Louis Martin and one and only D’varn Ireland. After the game, team head coach Bartek Wisniewski said: “I am very proud of my team. Evelyn Grace Academy team is one of most prolific school teams in London. The best team we have ever played. The EGA team plays games on a weekly basis and is participating in Basketball League competitions. Moreover, some of their players are also playing for Brixton Topcats. “Regardless of that, tonight we were a little rusty. We need to be aggressive, playing with pace, not looking over shoulders. The only way we’re going to be able to get out of the locker room and win the game is to put the hard work in as players and coaches. We have another away game coming up against our old rivals Southfields Academy and the whole team is looking forward to it!” Athletics 30 students from Chestnut Grove enjoyed a great day of athletics at the borough indoor competition at Ernest Bevin College last week. The competition involved students from Year 7 and 8 and included a range of track and field events. The combined boys’ team finished just outside the medals in fourth position while the girls’ team claimed bronze. There were some excellent personal performances, including Amari Thomas and Maria Mintah who won gold in the six-lap race and shot putt. Well done to all who participated! Mr Hallsworth PE teacher FRIENDS OF CHESTNUT GROVE Save the date: Our annual QUIZ NIGHT will be held on Thursday 10th May and is open to all parents/carers. More details to follow in due course. General emails to friendsofchestnutgrove@gmail. com Join us on our Facebook page Friends of Chestnut Grove or follow us on Twitter (@FriendsofCGA) FOOD TECHNOLOGY Last year Chestnut Grove was lucky enough to be awarded a grant by the Savoy Educational Trust. This has been used to develop our curriculum and kit out a brand new state of the art cooking facility for the students to learning in. The DT department have started the course and we are now in full swing. Students are learning different cooking techniques and the basics of food nutrition. Students are encouraged to explore new techniques and skills to create their own tasty treats. I have been blown away by Year 7 and 8’s enthusiasm for the subject and their desire to experiment and achieve. I have included some images of their first lesson on knife skills and safety in which they prepared a fruit salad. Next lesson they will be cooking up a storm with a fiery stir fry. Mr Stokes, DT teacher CHESTNUT21 Thanks again to you all for your support in 2017. We are currently working on the projects that we have received funding for including our new Study Incentive Club, the delivery of teaching and activities in the food technology room and scheduling new sports and activities on the new MUGA when it is built following the demolition of the old school! While we enjoy seeing the fruits of this fundraising, we are still working hard to add value to and maximise the opportunities for the new school grounds that will come about over the next few months. We will be writing to you in the next few weeks about a school drive to help us ensure that the grounds are as good as they can be for the students of the school. In the meantime, if you are planning to book your summer holiday over the next few weeks, please consider us by booking via the following link: https://www.easyfundraising.org.uk/causes/chestnutgroveacademy/ PERFORMING ARTS Calling all singers! We have a new choir starting on Tuesday break time; please come to S.2.23 to join Chestnut Grove’s newest choir run by Miss Anderson (sixth form choir leader). She also has some slots available for individual singing lessons. Please see Mr Burstow or Sam Mills for a letter. Royal Opera House Trip The performing arts department took 39 students ranging from Years 8, 9, 10 and 11 to watch Giselle at The Royal Opera House on Friday 2nd February. The students and teachers were very excited to be attending such an amazing and well-known ballet and were definitely not disappointed.The performing arts team were very proud of how well the students behaved. Performing Arts Team BILINGUAL DEPARTMENT Extraordinary English Etymology Every newsletter the bilingual department will bring you the etymology (origin) of two words or phrases. They will be the kind of phrases that many of you will know and probably use but would most likely struggle to explain why they are called what they are to anyone else. The bilingual department is here to help! Daylight Robbery This goes back to 1696 when a tax on windows was introduced. This was increased in 1782 when a graduated tax of one old shilling per window was charged up to ten windows, increasing very sharply after that. Rather than pay this tax, which was seen as daylight robbery, people bricked up some of their windows and this can often be seen in buildings to this day.

    the Evelyn Grace News Parent/Carer Newsletter April 2013 www.evelyngraceacademy.org Year 9 Leadership Day at prestigious King’s College London On Friday 8th March, 170 Year 9 students had the opportunity to take part in an inspirational Leadership Day at King’s College University, London. Powerful messages about the real meaning of education and the behaviours and attitudes that lead to successful living and learning were delivered in an entertaining, motivating session during the first part of the day. In the second part of the day students worked in small groups where they discussed common classroom scenarios and reflected thoughtfully on how they can individually and collectively take greater responsibility for successful learning in the Academy. A key part of the day was working together on an “INSTEAD” report, the student version of an Ofsted report. The plenary session with David and Bob presented an opportunity for students to say aloud what they learned dur- ing the day and commit to taking action to “Mind the Gap” when back in school.

  • Ernest Bevin College and Sixth Form Centre
    Ernest Bevin College and Sixth Form Centre Sixth Form Prospectus Sixth Form Centre for boys & girls (aged 16-19) in SW London Bevin believes in.. respect, opportunity, happiness, resilience, tolerance SUCCESS FOR ALL EBC Sixth Form offers a comprehensive range of courses including A Levels and BTECs, making it a popular choice for post-16 studies. Our Sixth Formers are highly successful in their examinations and we have established links with employers and universities to help our Sixth Formers secure university places, apprenticeships and jobs. Each year over 100 Sixth Formers leave Ernest Bevin to take up places at university on courses ranging from Medicine & Law, Computer Science and Economics. Two thirds of our leavers go on to study a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering & Maths) related subject, many at Russell Group universities. Students achieve high grades in both A Levels and BTEC courses, and the excellent results obtained in vocational subjects are recognised as some of the best in Wandsworth. Many of our Sixth Formers have been with us at EBC since joining the lower school, but we are also very pleased to welcome a number of new students, including several young women, to join our co-educational Sixth Form. We work hard to ensure all our Sixth Formers settle and get the most out of their time here. Students are encouraged to take part in extra-curricular activities, sport and trips. So for a supportive and challenging Sixth Form environment we think you can’t beat EBC and I hope you will consider joining our success story. Rukhsana Sheikh, Principal Bevin believes in.

    Key points It is typical for transfer from primary to secondary schools in Wandsworth for children to go to wide range of schools. You are fortunate in that you are not just allocated your nearest secondary; there is genuine choice. The South London independent day and grammar market is incredibly competitive. Don’t underestimate how much tutoring is done. We will support all children in getting into their school of choice, the pathway is clear from Allfarthing. There are ‘Specialist’ places in some secondary (more to come) Across London applications, you can apply from outside Wandsworth Try to find a safety net/banker-this will allow you approach it with less stress Look at the distance on 31st August not offer day. This is normally the reality. https://www.wandsworth.gov.uk/media/5810/previous _years_admissions_for_wandsworth_secondary_schoo ls.pdf Staying at Primary school until Y6 Involved in mentoring, prefects, house captains and role- model to younger children Enhanced sports, music and arts competitions as you get older and in Y5/6 You only leave primary school once, there is no absolute date for leaving secondary school due to exams. When I arrived I said we needed staffing stability-this has now occurred with a mixture of new and experienced teachers. There have been no new teachers over the last two years. It does affect the school if children leave before Y6- financially, emotionally and strategically.

  • Secondary Transfer Update
    Ben Roberts, Headteacher. Marion Guertin, Deputy Headteacher Tel: 020 7622 4101 Email: [email protected] 25 September 2020 Dear Parents and Carers of children in Year 6, Secondary Transfer update This letter aims to keep you up to date with the processes involved in applying for secondary school. Thank you for your patience since we held virtual meetings in the Summer term and created our Secondary Transfer webpage. Since then we have been promised further clarification, however we feel it is important to update you even though we are still awaiting final confirmation. Closing date for applications One thing that we do know is that the closing date for (online) applications for all boroughs is Saturday 31st October. As this is during half term, we encourage you to do so by Friday 23rd in case you need support from someone at school. Open days/evenings Secondary schools are providing different opportunities for you to ‘visit’ them due to Covid-19 restrictions. Check each school’s own website Please remember that most schools will be very keen for you to apply to them. So there is no harm in contacting a school for further information. Admissions tests Details of the Lambeth test are yet to be finalised. The Wandsworth test (for Ashcroft Technology Academy, Burntwood School, Chestnut Grove Academy, Ernest Bevin College or Graveney School) will be held in December this year. Please find details on the Wandsworth website. A Southwark test (for Kingsdale Foundation School, City of London Academy or St Savour’s & St Olave’s School) is explained on the Southwark website.
