Swindon School Games Despite the Wet Swindon School Games Despite the wet weather we saw a fantastic day’s celebration of School Sport for Primary and Secondary Schools in Swindon on 27 June. The 3rd annual Swindon School Games was held at Lydiard Park Academy, Link Centre and Delta Tennis Centre. The event was organised by Wiltshire and Swindon Sport along with the School Games Organiser, Andy Steckbeck, Swindon Borough Council Sports Participation Manager, Doug Imrie, and many other partners. The event would not have been possible without the 50 Young Leaders involved giving up their time to support the event and play their part in officiating, marshalling and supporting the venue coordinators on the day. 74 Schools have already participated in the Winter Games Level 3 competitions from 49 Primary Schools and 25 Secondary Schools. These games involved 1300 pupils across the County participating in 7 Sports including Badminton, Hockey, Football and Basketball. The summer event on 27 June involved 700 students from 32 Schools across Swindon competing in 8 Sports including Orienteering, Trampolining and Volleyball to name but a few. Sporting Champion, Lesley Owusu, GB 400m Athlete opened the day with an inspirational speech to the young athletes and MP Justin Tomlinson also spoke between excellent musical performances from Commonweal School Band and the Dancers from Wroughton School’s modern dance piece. The School Games Mascot Ra Cat was a big hit with the young athletes having lots of hugs and Hi 5’s with everyone wanting their pictures taken with him. Ra Cat had a go on the trampoline too see if he could bounce as well as the young athletes!

  • The H Eadteacher's Weekly N Ewsletter
    I LEARN TERM 2 FOCUS: LITERACY Friday 6th November 2020 A message from the Headteacher: Our first week back after half term has been a busy one! I’m delighted that the Swindon Youth Literature Festival will be taking place virtually and here at LMA next week. As I said in my letter to all parents and carers yesterday, it is very much business as usual here at Lawn Manor throughout the national lockdown period and we would be delighted to celebrate any positive news stories of successes outside of school in our newsletter, please just contact year leaders or the admin office to let us know. Sandra Muir Headteacher Year 7 Artwork Year 7 art with Miss Townsend Year 7 have been developing their art skills, particularly using pen shading techniques to create bold designs. Over half term, pupils were asked to copy the work of an artist who uses these same techniques in their work. These are some of the amazing art pieces that were handed in. Well done! The Headteacher’s Newsletter Weekly How to contact us: Telephone: 01793 487286 www.lawnmanor.org Attendance: 01793 427749 Student Services: 01793 Email: [email protected] @lawn_manor 427755 Head Lice s We have unfortunately had a report of head lice in the school. Here are a few tips from an NHS website regarding identifying head lice and how to get rid of them, which sometimes takes a few treatments. Head lice can make your head feel: • itchy • like something is moving in your hair The only way to be sure someone has head lice is by finding live lice.

  • Newsletter Issue 6
    Dear Parents PARENTS’ NEWSLETTER – ISSUE 6 JANUARY 2008 INTRODUCTION A belated ‘Happy New Year’ to all students, parents and friends of the school. I do hope you all had an enjoyable Christmas and New Year with family and friends. As we entered 2008, students returned on 3 January and were straight into lessons. Year 11 students continued their mock examinations and also there were the January GCSE examinations in Mathematics and Science for most of Year 11 and some of Year 10. The Year 11 AS Level Mathematicians also took papers. This examination season ran very effectively and I would like to thank everyone involved. On 2 January we held our Teacher Training Day on the forthcoming National Curriculum Developments. It was a very useful day enabling staff to reflect on these developments and plan for the future. In addition to the news on the Government’s GCSE league tables and the West Swindon Transport Consultation, this newsletter shows yet again a wide range of impressive success across all aspects of school life. Last week we had three teams in the last sixteen National Cup Competitions – ie Year 9 Basketball, Year 11 Basketball and Year 11 Football. The Year 8 Basketball team has reached the final of the Swindon Area Cup. These are impressive achievements and we would like to wish the squads, and their coaches, the best of luck. An update on their progress will be in the next newsletter. STOP PRESS - SWINDON TRANSPORT CONSULTATION DECISION As our Swindon families will be aware, the consultation process that took place before Christmas was to be followed by a decision made by the Swindon Borough Council (SBC) Cabinet at its meeting this month.

  • Newsletter 1 -Final – 22.10.18 – Autumn 2018
    Autumn Term Newsletter 1 A Great Start to Welcome and Inclusion in Swindon Schools Since our launch in January 2018, a lot of incredible insight, innovation and commitment has been shown in all the brilliant projects and curriculum initiatives that many schools have begun for introducing the Schools of Sanctuary principles of Learn, Embed and Share into our school communities. As we move through the second half of our first year, it’s a good time to: • reflect on our fabulous achievements; • consolidate our curriculum initiatives; • plan some clear directions which will continue our work together. What follows is a round-up of our fabulous achievements towards putting Swindon on the national Schools of Sanctuary map. The Commonweal School Since 2016, Commonweal School has been the hub-centre of Swindon Schools’ Global Learning Programme Network. In continuing their community commitment to global learning, Commonweal School pledges support to City of Sanctuary with access to rooms for our Schools of Sanctuary meetings and workshops. Commonweal’s generosity enables our Schools of Sanctuary work to flourish; this is a fantastic resource for us. Our thanks go to all staff who have made, and continue to make, this possible. The themes of human rights and social justice have a strong, sustainable presence in Commonweal’s KS3&4 curriculum – especially in Social Science. Therefore, Social Science teachers had no difficulty gathering together a small group of Year 7 students who keenly embraced the chance to get involved in the Twenty Welcomes Performance Poetry Project. An imaginative joint schools’ project to celebrate the twentieth anniversary of Refugee Week 2018, funded by South Swindon Parish Council.
