Welcome back to the fifth edition of our school Newsletter. The focus for this fortnight is ENGAGEMENT. As a school we really want to ensure that each and every single one of you are engaging with your teachers. When we don't hear from you, we not only worry that you could be falling behind through lack of completing work, but we also worry about your wellbeing. This is particularly true at the moment, when I am sure all of us have been both shocked and upset by the murder of George Floyd in the United States. At a challenging time, when we are not physically to- gether as a school community, it is more important than ever to re- main united and continue to reinforce and uphold our values of com- mitment, pride and success towards one another. To do this please join us in this newsletter’s challenge by creating a poster for anti- racism or visit http://archive.teachfind.com/ttv/www.teachers.tv/ videos/show-racism-the-red-card.html to hear Premier League footballers talk about their experiences of racism and outline what racism is and what effects it can have. We will continue to set you work for the rest of this term and over the summer holidays and expect it all to be completed so you remain on track for Year 13. If anyone is strug- gling due to not having a device at home to work from, get in touch! We can help! Thank you to those of you who are engaging brilliantly with your teachers—we are sending you a small gift heading your way this week!
