Friday 15th January
So the end of the first (proper) week! Wow that extra day makes a difference!!
The Year 8s were back in full Enterprise mode on Monday, busily selling a whole range of tasty snacks at breaktime. They are a long way to making their target figure and soon will be meeting with Miss Devine and Miss Mason to start planning the rewards trip.
Speaking of Miss Mason, she and the choir have been hard at it all week in preparation for their performance at the Royal Albert Hall.
Gymnastics has been the focus of PE this week, with plenty of group balances, cartwheels and round-offs on display in the school hall.
Congratulations must go to the Year 8 football team for reaching the last 16 of the English School’s competition with a resounding 4-0 victory over St Thomas Moore with Dom G and Luke C scoring the goals.
In Wednesday’s assembly Miss Hampshire introduced the concept of doing random acts of kindness – these weren’t necessarily limited to in school so hopefully your children will be doing these at home as well. Today I used Andy Murray as an example of someone who had a dream and the things a successful learner does to achieve that dream – ask your children what some of them are.
