Buses on last day of term – Thursday 21st July

Natalie McGillivary

As was the case in December, the bus company have told us that they will not be able to send buses earlier to collect students for our early finish on the last day of term, 21st July. We are assuming the picture will be similar to the case in December and would like to avoid the need for all buses to come to school at 3.15pm only for most to return to the depot empty. The most straightforward thing to do will be to cancel the buses altogether and make alternative arrangements for the few who are likely to need them.

Therefore, if your child will not be able to make their way home any other way on Thursday 21st July, please let us know by Friday 8th July by emailing amogey@lymmhigh.org.uk and we will organise transport home for them separately, probably via a school minibus.

French film

Natalie McGillivary

As part of our curriculum in French in Year 9, all pupils will be watching the French film ‘Intouchables’ starring Omar Sy and François Cluzet.
This contemporary film, which is set in Paris, addresses the issues of stereotypes and marginalised groups but is presented in a light, funny and entertaining way.
As the film is classified as 15 rated (it contains some bad language), if you would prefer that your son / daughter DIDN’T watch the film, please email me before Friday at 3pm to let me know and we will make arrangements for them to join a different group and complete alternative work.
My email address is kbaldwin@lymmhigh.org.uk
Please note that the film is available on Netflix if you would like to watch it in advance.
Many thanks for your support,
Mrs Baldwin

The deadline for Parent Pay payments for the Andrew Collier photography workshop has been extended to Friday 24th June. This is a fantastic opportunity for students currently in Year 10 studying photography or art at GCSE to work with an established photographer and to learn valuable skills in portraiture photography. This workshop is also open to any students in Year 9 that have chosen GCSE photography or GCSE Art next year. The workshop is in 2 parts costing £5 each with the first running after school on Tuesday 5th July.

Please see Miss Simms the Art Technician with any questions.
