  • 27Th April 2018 Dear Parents Thank You for Your
    27th April 2018 Dear Parents Thank you for your patience in receiving last week’s newsletter. This has now been rectified and all newsletters should be delivered to you every Friday. This week we are delighted to announce that on Monday 2nd April construction of a dedicated Sixth Form common room commenced, complete with a 60 seat café where Sixth Formers and staff can undertake independent or group work, or simply relax. The official opening of the Refectory will be announced shortly. The café will offer light meals and snacks to students and staff on weekdays, with members of the community being invited to enjoy the facility during weekend and school holidays. The café will be available for private hire. Activities Week I would like to remind students in Year 7 to Year 10 the deadline for your choices during activities days is Monday 30th April. English Year Nine made the short journey to South Cove Church on Monday 23rd April for a reading of the Emily Dickinson poem, 'A Certain Slant of Light'. The surroundings were both atmospheric and thought-provoking, encouraging the students to share their ideas and insights upon a complex and emotive poem from the GCSE anthology. Year 9 will use this experience to further analyse the poem in class and inspire them to create a poem of their own based upon their time at the church. Book club This week a small group of students, teachers and parents got together to discuss Naomi Alderman's provocative dystopian thriller ‘The Power’. Our next meeting will consider a very different text – ‘Scoop’ by Evelyn Waugh.
