St. Joseph's Specialist School & College Newsletter St. Joseph’s Specialist School & College Newsletter Amlets Lane, Cranleigh, Surrey GU6 7DH Volume 6 Tel: 01483 272449 Fax: 01483 276003 Friday Email: [email protected] 10 July 2015 Web: www.st-josephscranleigh.surrey.sch.uk Letter from the Principal Dear Families and Friends I hope you have had time to enjoy the wonderful weather we have been having. It could not have been more perfect for our Sports and Fun Day last week. As you will see from the Sports and Fun Day article inside, the Aqua Zorbing was a favourite, as were the field events and swimming races. Many of our learners were proudly showing off as many as 5 or 6 medals and some even more! But no show from Sophie, the Countess of Wessex, who had threatened to try to take the Egg and Spoon title from Frank! As usual the afternoon events were also a hit. It was great to see so many family members enthusiastically clapping along to the music, during our amazing fashion show and dance routines. Sophie, a lass who left us several years ago, came and was able to tell us that after successfully completing a catering course at Guildford College she has been offered a full time job at Millie’s Cookies in White Lion Walk, Guildford – a wonderful achievement. This week Dr. Jean Ware, Professor and Reader at Bangor University was with us all week, leading sessions for our staff, as well as colleagues from local schools. The sessions have included topics such as Life without Levels, Learner Voice and Research Lesson Study. I am on call this weekend, so am not able to join the party of colleagues and learners attending the Red Bull Soap Box event at Alexandra Palace, but will be catching up with the 1 hour long programme on Dave TV at 6 pm on Sunday. I am really hoping to catch a glimpse of our car and driver! Only nine more learner days until the Summer break is here. Nine learners as well as one or two colleagues are moving on to pastures new. St. Joseph’s is but a station on the pathway of life, some making a longer stop than others. I will be especially sad to see Maggie Thomas retire. She has worked at St. Joseph’s for over 20 years as TA and Teacher and will be greatly missed by learners and staff alike. If you would like to say goodbye to her in person you can catch her at the Leavers Mass or the KS4/5 Presentation Evening. Hoping your weekend goes well. With our love and prayers Page 2 St. Joseph’s Specialist School & College Newsletter Gwyneth Russell joined us this week as the Dannielle Nunn joined us Therapies Admin this week as a 52 week Assistant Care Worker.

Page 4 St. Joseph’s Specialist School & College Newsletter St. Joe’s Enterprise St. Joe’s Enterprise is an integral element of education at St. Joseph’s as it gives our learners the first step towards experiencing the world of work and helps prepare them for Work Experience placements either in the local community or within the College itself. Each term, all Key Stage 4 and 5 learners take part in a different Enterprise Group run along the lines of a small business. They then sell their products at school fetes and local events. Any profit made is fed back into the enterprise to reinvest for the next project. We have now produced a catalogue of current products which will be available at reception. Orders can be taken for wooden goods (plain wood or painted and/or decorated) at reception if not in the display cabinet. Take a look next time you visit. Ceramics, cushions and art work are also for sale when stock is available. Investors in Careers Last Monday, Elizabeth Whicheloe visited to reassess the school for the Quality Award, “Investors in Careers”, as the award only lasts for three years. The areas she particularly focused on were assessing the evidence that St Joseph’s :- Renewed its commitment to careers education, information, advice and guidance and the Investors in Careers standard. Maintained the Investor in Careers standard during the lifetime of the original award. Provided evidence of innovative practice. Throughout the day Maggie Thomas and Caroline Sanders presented evidence to Elizabeth and introduced teachers, therapists, members of the SLT and of course a forum of learners, to talk about the curriculum, therapies, work prep, PSHE, Citizenship and work experience. She scrutinised development planning for Work Related Learning, curriculum planning, assessment, learner’s work collections and photographs and work experience diaries. She was particularly impressed with the school’s move, since the last assessment, to integrate therapies into the classroom and daily living skills as she could see the benefit to all learners. Naomi Harding’s speech therapy project was a good example of this, as she has been supporting the learners with interview skills and developing social skills for the workplace. Alongside this she and the WRL STA have been developing positive partnerships with local work experience providers, offering support and advice to their staff. This has been beneficial to both the learners and the providers. Elizabeth reflected, “Mainstream schools could learn a lot from this practice.” Elizabeth was pleased to re award St Joseph’s the “Investors in Careers” standard as we are exceeding what is statutory regarding careers education. This Quality Award will remain with us for a further 3 years. “This really is one of the highest accolades an organisation can receive for excellence in this area of work and is definitely something the award holder can be very proud of. The IiC standard is about improving students’ awareness of opportunities, raising their aspirations and working with them to ensure they achieve their full potential.” 2015 Investors in Careers website.

The VisTimer Free app has maximum time of 10 minutes whereas the paid for app can countdown for 23 hours and 59 minutes. This is great for learners who struggle with the concept of time and how long they have left. It can be used to depict how long is left of a chosen activity or of a work activity. The colour of the pie chart and the finished tone can be changed to suit your child. Make £10 Grow Does money grow on trees? It did in John Bosco! They cut up their £10 to make a money tree and then sold it at a profit. This was one of a number of novel money making ideas that we saw this year. John Paul House decorated stones and turned them into little animal paper weights. These sold really well making a healthy profit of £25.96. St Cecilia`s ran a very popular Baby photo quiz, St Luke`s kept up its classroom tradition with homemade ice cream. The biggest profit award goes to St David`s who made a grand profit of £40 washing cars. Thank you to all those who participated, we raised a total of £148.12. The Ideal Ideas council has chosen to put the money towards new scooters, these will be ordered shortly and ready for use in September.

FHM-Verlag Bielefeld, Ravensberger Str. 10 G, 33602 Bielefeld ISBN-Nr.: 978-3-937149-64-6 www.fh-mittelstand.de Introducing myself When I was a child, I had lots of cars, trains, ships and robot toys. I was so interested in playing, taking apart and fixing them. Besides this, while playing with my friends, I was the one who took over the role of the story teller of the game who told the others the content of the play and managed to give the others their role. When growing up, I chose Physics, Mathematics and Informatics as my major subjects at High School where I became the best pupil at class, school and local region. Afterwards, I chose to study Engineering in the field of Computer Hardware. The undergraduate program at Shahid Beheshti University (SBU) is a well-rounded program. It did not only help me to build a solid foundation of Computer Engineering fundamentals, but also helped me to develop an overall perspective of the vast field of Engineering. I have striven to perform well in all courses. My Bachelor thesis topic was “Designing an Intelligent Systems for Marketing of Oil Products for Iran Petrochemical Commercial Company” and I was interested in Neural Nets, Genetic Algorithms, Modelling and Simulation and I was interested in Industries and Energy so, I chose the numerical simulation of activity around a transportation system, Management, as my final thesis.

  • The Case of Red Bull
    Master Thesis Value creation by branding: the case of Red Bull Copenhagen Business School – 15th May 2018 International Marketing and Management Supervisor: Jonas Nielsen Stausholm – 107017 Peter Schrøder Jon Kjartan Kristinsson – 107553 Characters/pages: 271,459/119 Abstract Firms have to rethink what they see as their core competencies, as brand capital is becoming the main value creator in the 21st century, compared to physical capital in the 20th century. Red Bull is the world’s largest energy drink manufacturer, the brand as a resource, is the source of sustainable competitive advantage for Red Bull, a strong brand is the main factor of differentiation within the energy drink industry. The core identity of the Red Bull brand is to give wings to both people and ideas. The brand meaning is value based, making it possible to successfully extend the brand far beyond the core business. Since its foundation Red Bull has successfully diversified into several sport sub-industries - as for example eSports, football and Formula 1 - generating high brand awareness. Red Bull´s ownership strategy of sport teams, athletes and events, is significantly different from the strategy of their competitors, as well as other strong brands. Sport activities are guaranteed to create memorable experiences, and these experiences build and maintain Red Bull´s strong brand, a brand which has achieved a truly loyal base of consumers. These consumers exhibit both behavioural and attitudinal loyalty. Red Bull is perceived to be superior to its competitors, as well as being a premium brand, generating several essential benefits for Red Bull. The high degree of brand awareness, as well as the emotional attachment generated by associating the Red Bull brand with sport activities, supports the utilization of the brand as a resource which is the source of a sustainable competitive advantage for Red Bull.
