Non-Uniform Day – Friday 12th May
Dear parents and carers,
We would like to inform you about the upcoming event which is taking place on Friday 12th of May. We are a group of year 9 students who have been working towards a non-school uniform day to raise money for Cancer Research; we have selected this charity as we feel everyone knows of someone who has been affected by cancer.
Each student can participate by donating a minimum of £1 to the charity.
We very much hope everyone participates as we feel it is a very important cause, and hope this is the start of many more opportunities to work together as a community.
Yours faithfully,
Year 9

Subject consultation meeting for Y8 students, parents/carers – Thursday 25th May 2017
The booking system is available here.
Individual teacher consultation appointments will take place 4:30-7.30pm. Subject teachers will meet with you and your child on an individual basis to provide clear feedback on your child’s learning. You will also have an opportunity to review your child’s exercise books.
All meetings will take place in the school hall. Booking will be on a first come, first served basis and the booking system is now open. The number of appointments will, initially, be limited to five for each student to ensure that all parents/carers are able to participate. Nearer to the time, if additional appointments are available, we will release these into the booking system and notify you.
In order to login to the system, you will need the following information relating to your child, as held in our database:
- Child’s first name
- Child’s surname
- Child’s date of birth
- Child’s register class (in the form of e.g. 8-1)
You will need to enter the details we have on record for you. If you have recently changed your title or surname, for example, and not informed us, we will be expecting you to login with the details we have on record. The email address you enter is only used to receive a confirmation of your appointment. If the system gives you an error when you login, it will not be the email address that is the problem.
If you do not have access to the Internet, or experience any problems with using the system, please contact the school and ask to speak with Miss Ring.
Students are required to attend, with their parent/carer.
