Our oversubscribed year 7 cohort is already well established and appear to have mastered the geography of the building. In lessons it is clear that they, and all our students, are working hard and are making great progress, as we were pleased to report to parents of year 7 pupils last week at our settling-in evening. Thank you for your support of our annual Open Evening; an important event in the daunting process of choosing a school for the next phase of education, that so many of you have fed-back, was critical to your decision making at that time. The event was a huge success, with over 700 people visiting the academy including over 300 prospective year 6 pupils. The exit surveys were tremendously positive, conveying both the positive impression held prior to visiting and an overwhelming uplift on exit. As always, our student helpers were the real stars of the evening; I'll take this opportunity to extend my thanks to them and their families once again. We were thrilled to be able to congratulate and celebrate the success of Oulton Broad Primary School on their Outstanding Ofsted report recently, joining the growing ranks of good and improving schools across Lowestoft which is clearly very good news for the town as a whole. We are looking forward to our next collapsed PSHE day on Wednesday 7th October. Our PSHE programme uses collapsed days in preference to timetabled lessons so that we can engage a wide range of businesses and other professionals, making learning as interesting and engaging as possible. Attendance on PSHE days is critical because any lost learning will be hard to recover, so please support us and make every effort to ensure that your son/daughter is here and able to benefit, even if they are not in full health. Speaking of which, attendance so far this year is 1% up on this time last year and our students are more punctual than ever before. We maintain a 'firm but fair' approach to supporting attendance. If you would like any further support or guidance please don't hesitate to contact our attendance team. Kindest regards.

The investment this summer amounts to over £300,000, making the total investment over two years in excess of £1m. Please be assured that these funds have largely been secured through government sources reserved for building improvements, not from funds associated with your child‟s care or tuition. I‟m sure you will agree that the new windows, roofs, boilers and the diverse range of classroom refurbishments including technology suites, ICT studios, catering facilities and other specialist resources are significant developments that will support us in our drive for high standards in all that we do, as well as providing your child with a safe, warm and welcoming environment to work in. Congratulations go to Ryan Hawkins, last year‟s Head Boy, who has been awarded a Suffolk Scholarship on entry to Lowestoft Sixth Form College. 3 Lily Charlesworth Year 11 Venture House student, Lily Charlesworth, swims for Lowestoft & Oulton Broad Swimming Club. She has swum at county and regional levels, also for three clubs; St Felix, Beccles and Lowestoft. Lily started to swim at the very young age of two, and joined Lowestoft & Oulton Broad Swimming Club when she was just six years old. She trains nearly every day, clocking up just over 11 hours of practice on a weekly basis. Diet is very important and Lily must eat specific foods which include carbohydrates and protein. Lily has numerous medals that she has won since she was very young. Her preferred swimming stroke is fly. Lily said: “The person that inspires me is Rebecca Adlington, OBE, Gold and Bronze Olympic medal winner, and my coaches as they put a lot of time and effort in me and the club. My ambition is to swim in the Olympics. My most memorable occasion was when I swam 400 IM at Regionals long course when I made all my coaches proud.” Lily recently competed in her most prestigious competition; an open water event when she raced in a lake at Whitlingham Outdoor Education Centre. This was the first time Lily had taken part swimming in a lake. She competed in wave 2 of 3 in which 48 people took part. “I won my heat and became the Eastern Region champion in 800m. I also came 2nd in the Suffolk County. Everyone around me was ecstatic and I also found out that I was awarded Swimmer of the Month award from my club‟s committee. I was quite overwhelmed.” Well done and congratulations to Lily. Mrs J Durrant - Marketing & Communications Officer 4 Harry Garner Harry is a year 9, Venture House, student
