PE lessons, 17-25/06/2021

Boys

Due to Covid-19 restrictions, the boys had been using the sports hall as a changing room. However, because of the Year 10 Exams taking place this is not available from Thursday 17th June until Friday 25th June. Therefore, boys are expected to come into school in their PE kit along with suitable footwear, such as trainers, for the days when they have their PE lessons. Their football boots should be packed in their bag. PE kit MUST be in line with school PE kit regulations.

As we are unable to use the changing rooms, students are expected to leave their bags in the school gym. This will be the same system that we used prior to Christmas when the Year 11 students were taking their mock exams in the sports hall. Unfortunately, if the weather is extremely wet, lessons may have to be adapted with groups going in classrooms for part of the lesson. This will prevent students being in wet clothes for the remainder of the day.

 

Girls 

Girls will continue using the changing facilities during this time and will be required to arrive in their normal school uniform.

Social Responsibility in the Community

Natalie McGillivary

On Monday, whilst the teachers are on Inset Day, we are asking our students to have a think about how they can provide a positive impact on the community.

The image shows all of our social responsibility hashtags. We want students to engage in an activity which demonstrates how they are embracing at least one of the hashtags. Email Form Tutors with the information and Hall points will be issued to all participants. Prizes will also be distributed to those students that have the biggest impact on the community.

John Berry

Today we have held a minute’s silence for a much-loved colleague and friend John Berry. John was our site supervisor and sadly passed away earlier this week after suffering a sudden heart attack. We will be holding a memorial service in school at some point during the summer term. Our thoughts and very best wishes are with the family he leaves behind.
