NEWSLETTER Friday 28th February Dear parents and carers, It has been a rich and busy half term break and first week back. Our highlights this week have included having Age UK in to work with our Year 9s, who have begun their social action project in Everyone matters, or E1M as we call it. This project will see the whole of Year 9 really engaging in work with the elderly and developing an understanding of what it is to be part of the older community of Cowes. We thank Age UK for being so generous with their time and were also delighted to have their feedback on the excellence of the year group in their sessions with them this week. Social action is a significant part of being a Cowes Enterprise College student and we are embracing with Yr7, 8 and 9 the concept of ‘I Will’ in our curriculum through these community and outwards facing social projects students will be involved in. Large numbers of our year 11s came in to the academy over half term to continue to be supported in their revision. Well done to our students for their commitment to all their half term revision whether on or off site. I’m sure this has put them in a strong position for this week’s mock exams and congratulations again to the year group for keeping the hard work This week has been a week of celebrating achievements across the academy, from excellent attendance to subject awards through our celebration assemblies. We are very proud of all our students who have received awards this week and are looking forward to Year 7’s celebration assembly next week.
