Collecting students by car at the end of the day We are pleased that we are able to allow parents to drive into school and drop their sons/daughters off in the mornings. However, it is not reasonable for parents to expect to collect students in the same way at the end of the day as it is so busy. It is a drop-off area but we do make exceptions for taxis and for parents of students who are on crutches etc. We therefore ask parents to make arrangements to meet their sons/daughters at a convenient location away from the school and Brenchley Road. If the present traffic and health & safety concerns continue will consider closing the school gates to all vehicles before and after 3pm. Thank you for your co-operation. at 3.00pm Reminder re Girls’ Uniform and Appearance Skirts Regulation school skirt is as follows: Straight skirt with kick pleat at centre back, or Box pleat All skirts must be knee length Hair Hair that is dyed in non-natural or contrasting colours and hair extensions are not permitted in school.

(nail var- nish remover is kept in house areas and girls will be asked to remove the nail varnish immediately and their responsibility card will be signed). 2 Students Raise Funds For Air Ambulance Christmas jumpers proved to be a big hit when Fulston students donated money to wear their festive sweaters just before they broke up last term. An amazing £357.54 was raised and a cheque was presented to Mr Dennis Ines who represented the Kent, Surrey and Sussex Air Ambulance Trust. Dennis has been fundraising for the KSSAAT for the past 25 years and collects waste paper from Fulston Manor School each week and takes it to the paper mill to be recycled. He also fundraises at local events and, to date, has raised around £190,000 for this essential cause. Dennis commented “I got involved with fundraising for the Air Ambulance by chance when I was part of the PTA at Fulston. We had asked the students which charity they wanted to support and, by chance, an air ambulance landed in the field! The decision was made there and then!” Money was raised in memory of an ex-student Sophie Lintott who tragically died last year. Mrs Palmer, Publicity and Events Manager at the school said, “We all know Dennis so well here at school and so there was no question as to who we wanted to present the cheque to as he works so tirelessly for the Air Ambu- lance. There was a real buzz on the day from the students who wore their jumpers and it just added to the fun of our Christmas dinner. It seems so long ago now though!” Many thanks to all who wore a Christmas jumper and helped raise so much money for Kent Air Ambulance! 3 Fulston Donate To The Needy Following on from a Hales house assembly, students and staff collected a large amount of food items to donate to the local Sittingbourne food bank. The idea behind the assembly was to ask students to re- spond to the idea of not thinking of just themselves but of others – not necessarily people they knew, but their wider community – especially to those less fortunate, during the Christmas season. Hales students Nathan Ottaway and Emily Cale were two students chosen to help deliver the food parcels to The Baptist Church in Sittingbourne on the last day of term. All of Sittingbourne’s churches run this scheme together and help some of the neediest families and people in the town. The volunteers were in- credibly happy as their stocks were becoming depleted and, as both students said, “We were really proud to have been able to deliver these food parcels and it’s a lovely feeling knowing we have helped strangers”. School Life for year 11 pre-public examinations With GCSEs only handful of months away, Year 11 students of Fulston Manor prepare for the most vital few months of their adolescent lives. New and interesting revision tech- niques are being introduced to students via informative assemblies that have been held sporadically throughout the beginning months of 2016 and the last few months of 2015. Fulston Manor caters towards the needs and wants of every student within each year. For Year 11, this means various workshops for each subject. The workshops are held and organised by the teachers within their subjects. The workshops held, help students to revise knowledge learnt previously and to revise ex- am techniques which help with the coming exams. With the help of the teachers, students are reassured about the uncertainty of their exams. Students are also helped with analysing materials such as past papers. Deputy Head Girl, Soraya Holland agrees, “At workshops, it’s too late in the day to learn any new content so reviewing and practice is perfect for revi- sion.” Written by: Renee Quartey-Peluola Year 11 Student 4 Sport Relief Fulston Manor School staff and students joined in the fun and raised a fantastic £827.01 for Sport Relief. Starting on Thursday 17th March Tutor Groups held activities such as table football, mini Olym- pics, skip-a-thons and Insanity workouts to name but a few. English teacher, Mr Spedding, showed some excellent dedication when he challenged his Tutor Group to a planking ses- sion. He was, embarrassingly, beaten by some Year 8s! Students and staff were invited to wear red on Friday 18th and the day’s highlight was a male versus fe- male netball match. This was well attended by students cheering on their teachers. The match started off well for the ladies, they were winning 3-0 at the end of the first quarter after some brilliant shots by Mrs Boichat. However, after a slow start the men found their feet and (unfortunately for the women) some goals as well. The male team, captained by Mr Deeks, showed no mercy as they fought to secure the win for the second year running. This also led to some injuries including Mr Prutton injuring his knee, though he bravely carried on to take the team to glory.

  • Highsted Grammar School Match Reports 2017-18
    Highsted Grammar School Match Reports 2017-18 Kent School Games Floor and Vault Gymnastics Competition: Tuesday 20 March Squad list Louisa Briggs – Coach (Year 11); Amelia Williams, Poppy Smith, Therese Boston, Daisy Smith, Esme Brown (Year 8); Abbie Hales (Year 9); Kara Atkinson, Marissa Leyden, Chardonnay Townsend, Abi Pike, Aimee Watt (Year 10) On Tuesday 20 March Highsted students competed in the Kent School Games Floor and Vault gymnastics competition. This is only the second time Highsted have competed in Gymnastics and this year this event got a lot bigger, covering two venues due to the number of entries. The squad was selected from the students who attended the after school gymnastic club. The students all had varying levels of experience in the sport, some taking the daunting challenge of competing for the first time. The squad had worked hard in training to master the two disciplines. Each student had to complete two vaults and a floor routine. All students worked hard in training and were able to progress to the more difficult vault, meaning if performed in competition they could access higher marks. Skills for the floor routine were also developed under the watchful eye of coach Louisa Briggs. Each member of the squad performed well at the event, with all students completing the harder vault for at least one of their attempts. Floor routines were also completed with limited errors and the squad showed excellent team spirit and support for all members. The competition was extremely close with limited points between placings. Special recognition should be awarded to the students in category two who managed a clean Highsted sweep of the podium, with Poppy Smith in 3rd, Therese Boston in 2nd and Amelia Williams in 1st place.

  • Please Note : All Recorded Crime Figures Within This Document Have Been Extracted from Our Crime Recording System on 30Th March 2006 and May Be Subject to Change
    Please Note : All recorded crime figures within this document have been extracted from our crime recording system on 30th March 2006 and may be subject to change. The following report relates to recorded crimes for the period of 1st January 2005 to 28th February 2006. The crime recording system used by Kent Police does not have a specific field which enables identification of school premises. The means by which Kent Police has extracted the following data is through the use of specific wording recorded within the 'Modus Operandi (MO) Scene' field. Therefore, this data is based on :- 1) Those crimes that have been reported to Kent Police 2) Those that are defined as crimes and have subsequently been recorded by Kent Police 3) And, where the appropriate wording has been recorded in the 'MO Scene' field. Whilst the 'MO Scene' field records the crime as occurring on school premises, it does not necessarily reflect crimes committed within school hours or involving pupils/teachers. The data will include, for example, crimes to school property that occur overnight i.e. Criminal Damage, Arson and Burglary. It will also include crimes that occur in the vicinity of schools, but not necessarily against school property or within the school i.e. Theft of and from Vehicles and Theft of Pedal Cycles. It is also likely that a proportion of recorded Drug Offences will involve persons not associated with the school, but were committed on school grounds i.e. fields/outbuildings/sheds/garages. Although the crime may have occurred within the vicinity of a school, it may not have been reported by persons associated with the school and therefore, the school may be totally unaware of the crime.
