Year 9 Choices deadline – Friday 10th March

Natalie McGillivary

Students will be sent a ‘Microsoft Form’ via their school email to make their final options choices in a few days before the deadline, so that they have had their options interview before completing it. Tomorrow in registration, Year 9 form tutors will inform students of the details of their options interview. If you know your child is not going to be in school, please email your child’s form tutor, but please bear in mind that options interviews are scheduled from Wednesday 1st March to Monday 6th March.

If for any reason your child misses their interview, please ask them to find the member of staff or drop them an email to rearrange it. If your child is undecided still and needs any help after their interview, please ask them to see any of the staff listed on the last page of this presentation; a good starting point would be their form tutor.

Turkey/Syria earthquake appeal

Natalie McGillivary

Please read below for the fundraising efforts Lymm High is organising over the next two days for the Turkey/Syria earthquake appeal.

Tomorrow, we are having a cake sale and a raffle so students may wish to bring in some cash. If you would like to donate any cakes for the sale, students can bring these to S107 before form time. Raffle tickets can be purchased from the school shop (in-person and over the phone) and there are some great prizes, including:

  • Refurbished Lenovo L490 Laptop
  • Family portrait session with Andrew Collier
  • Afternoon Tea for two at Statham Lodge
  • Meal for two at Ego’s Lymm
  • Sunday roast platter for two at The Jolly thresher
  • Voucher from Karl Welsh Flowers

On Friday, we will be having a non-uniform day. If students wish to dress down they need to give a pound donation to their form tutors. Please note that students still need to bring their PE kit in for PE lessons.

We are also having our regular end-of-term Doughnut Day event where students can buy Krispy Kreme doughnuts for £1 at breaktime in the main hall. The money raised will be split between the PTA and the earthquake appeal.

Thank you for your support.

History Residential Trip

Natalie McGillivary

Dear parent,

Please find attached important details regarding the History Residential to London 8th-10th February 2023.

This presentation has essential safety and behavioural expectations. The Kit List contains what to/not to bring and the itinerary.

Please check that appropriate clothing has been packed (no crop tops, overly ripped jeans, or shorts) and that pupils have warm layers.
We will do a lot of walking and it will be cold.

Please make sure your child’s medical details are correct and up-to date and we are made aware of any changes, including mental health concerns.

On the day of the trip, it is essential that medication for any listed conditions is handed in. Including inhalers if asthma is listed (even if not used in a while), if it’s on the medical form, we have to account for it. We will not be able to bring pupils who have not got their needed medication.

We are very excited for the trip, and we hope that it will result in some amazing memories, as well as being beneficial to the academic achievements of your child in their GCSEs.

Please do not hesitate to get in touch with any questions.

Email is the best form of contact at fsykes@lymmhigh.org.uk.

Yours sincerely,

Miss Sykes

Trip Lead & Head of History
