9 June 2017 NEWSLETTER ISSUE 33 www.cardinalnewman.coventry.sch.uk Messages from the Headteacher Dear Parent/Carers The headlines this week have been all about the General Election and yesterday we had our own General Election in school. Our results appear to have been an indicator of how the country was going to vote as students voted overwhelmingly for the Labour candidate Jaiker Chauhan. Well done to Jaiker and also to Latay Lynch who represented the Liberal Democrats and Kirsty Croaken the Conservative Party. I hope that our newly elected Government will ensure that they consider the impact of the funding cuts in school budgets and ensure that proper investment is made in our young people and their futures! Exams - Well done to all our students who have conducted themselves so well throughout the exam season. Students and staff have worked incredibly hard in preparation for these exams and we hope that their hard work is rewarded with excellent exam results in the summer. Our team of Examination Invigilators have been really impressed with their excellent attitude and maturity throughout. A particular well done to students in Year 10 who have worked really hard in preparation for their GCSE English Language exam that they are taking a year early. Lourdes Trip 2017 - As always, it is wonderful to hear about the hard work and commitment of our young people who went on the annual pilgrimage to Lourdes during half term. Our students once again did us proud and were an inspiration in their unending acts of kindness and mercy.

Thank you to Mr Tomlin who provided transport to and from the airport..

Dear Parent/Carers
The headlines this week have been all about the General Election and yesterday we had our own General Election in
school. Our results appear to have been an indicator of how the country was going to vote as students voted
overwhelmingly for the Labour candidate Jaiker Chauhan. Well done to Jaiker and also to Latay Lynch who represented
the Liberal Democrats and Kirsty Croaken the Conservative Party. I hope that our newly elected Government will
ensure that they consider the impact of the funding cuts in school budgets and ensure that proper investment is made in
our young people and their futures!
Exams - Well done to all our students who have conducted themselves so well throughout the exam season. Students
and staff have worked incredibly hard in preparation for these exams and we hope that their hard work is rewarded with
excellent exam results in the summer. Our team of Examination Invigilators have been really impressed with their
excellent attitude and maturity throughout. A particular well done to students in Year 10 who have worked really hard
in preparation for their GCSE English Language exam that they are taking a year early.
Lourdes Trip 2017 - As always, it is wonderful to hear about the hard work and commitment of our young people
who went on the annual pilgrimage to Lourdes during half term. Our students once again did us proud and were an
