  • The Kings' Messenger
    Issue no. 114 End of Spring Term April 2014 The Kings’ Messenger A Riveting Read (and a wonderful week)! Following on from the recent World Book Day, this half term saw the first ever English Subject Week at Kings organised by English Enrichment Leader Mr Sinclair (a.k.a. Dracula) in a week jam-packed with activities designed to encourage, enthuse and engage all students with a love of English culminating in the dress as a literary character day. Can you recognise the characters here…? Worthy of any storybook Red Riding Hood made an appearance, along with several witches, Meg and Mog, a very convincing Gollum, “Jungle Book” heroes, Mary Poppins, Mallory Towers schoolgirls, veteran detectives Miss Marple, Hercule Poirot and Sherlock Holmes. The Woman in Black (scary!) was joined by pirates, and a fabulous wardrobe from “The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe” rubbing shoulders with The Hitchhiker to the Galaxy, along with the Hungry Caterpillar; whilst Headteacher Mr Richardson and his team dressed as characters from Scott Fitzgerald's “Great Gatsby”. The dressing up day proved to be very popular and also prompted discussion about the books. It is pleasing to note that Year 11 are now aware that Dracula was a book before a film! Prizes for the best costumes go to Mr and Mrs Twit and their infamous grunions - but top marks must go to everyone for the fabulous imagination and effort put into their costumes. You can read more about the week later in this newsletter and see more pictures on the back page to try and spot the book behind the character that had the Academy in literary enthral.

  • End of Summer Term July 2011 the Kings’ Messenger
    Issue no. 98 - End of Summer Term July 2011 The Kings’ Messenger Kings is an Academy! One year after the Secretary of State for Education invited the school to apply to become one of the Government’s new-style Academies, we finally received official confirmation that Kings would convert to an Academy on 1 June 2011. You will be aware that we had had initially planned to become an Academy on 1 September 2010, but lengthy delays caused by the Church of England meant that this was not possible. As The Kings of Wessex Academy, we are now self-managing, and independent of Somerset Local Authority, and receive funding directly from Central Government. The major benefits of Academy Status are greater control over the academy budget to achieve the best for our students, reduced bureaucracy, with increased funding to improve education and focus on teaching and learning both here at Kings, and in the wider community. We will continue to serve the needs of all students, and maintain the existing admission criteria with no selection based on ability. The Academy is run by an Academy Trust, composed of our existing Governing Body, and all staff will continue to be employed by the Academy Trust; with continued representation by parents and members of the community. We are also committed to our special ethos and values, including status as a Church of England School and the strong partnership with Cheddar Valley Schools. Kings Fitness and Leisure will continue to be owned and operated by the Academy. So - here’s looking to the future as The Kings of Wessex Academy...! Head’s-Up from Mr Richardson Headteacher, The Kings of Wessex Academy Dear Parents, I am delighted to bring you this end of Summer Term 2011 report – the first, in our official capacity as The Kings of Wessex Academy! I am sure, like you, I could never have foreseen the long drawn-out process a year ago when the Secretary for State invited us to apply to become one of the Government’s new-style Academies.

  • Call for Volunteers
    Smash a wine glass with sound, create spiral rainbows, use light to heal wounds and explore medical optoelectronics – volunteers needed! Do these things sound intriguing? Are you interested in communicating science to a young audience? Lab in a Lorry needs volunteers with a scientific background for events across Somerset during school term time. What is Lab in a Lorry? Lab in a Lorry is an interactive mobile laboratory, which gives young people (11–14 year olds) the opportunity to explore science through open-ended experiments. Volunteers guide the students through the experiments (optoelectronics and medicine, sound and resonance, light scattering and colours, oil and viscous liquids) and make sure everyone gets to be involved through hands-on experience. Our tour of Somerset has been made possible thanks to EDF Energy. EDF Energy is committed to producing safe, affordable and reliable low-carbon electricity. The company is sponsoring Lab in a Lorry as part of its plans for Hinkley Point C to engage and inspire young people in Somerset to follow a pathway into Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) related careers. What would I have to do? You will oversee an experiment for the day. We send you all the background material in advance and on the morning of an event you receive full training on the lab. We ask that volunteers commit to a minimum of one full school day, but you are welcome to come along for as many days as you like. In return you’ll have a rewarding and unforgettable experience, receive some IOP freebies and also be awarded affiliate membership to the Institute of Physics for a year (www.iop.org).

  • Welcome to Greenhill House
    Welcome to Greenhill House I would like to introduce you to Greenhill House. I hope this pack answers many of your questions, and I would be delighted to welcome you to visit us to find out more. It’s an exciting time for all the staff and residents of Greenhill House, as the home has recently been redeveloped and is now a modern, purpose-built care home, with spacious, bright rooms, en-suite bathrooms and a dedicated dementia wing. Jenny Futcher, Home Manager Once the smallest home in the Somerset Care Group, Greenhill House has been redeveloped into a spacious and modern purpose-built home which comprises 20 residential bedrooms, a dementia wing for 16 residents and care suites. The care home has been kept purposefully small, and on a domestic scale. The design is such that the majority of the bedrooms are on the upper floor and the living spaces are on the ground floor, making it more familiar for people who are used to living in two-storey houses. The bedrooms are at least 20m square, and include a shower en suite. There is a newly fitted commercial kitchen and laundry room which provide services across the development. There is a separate coffee lounge (not attached to the residential area or the dementia wing) which can be used by care home residents, family members and visitors and the wider community. The staff are always friendly, helpful and really care for the people who live at Greenhill. Greenhill has a mixture of old and new staff and that makes it exceptional in my eyes.
