SIXTH FORM NEWS

Hello everyone. I hope you all had a great week!

This week has been another one of those busy weeks as we settle back into normal school life after an extremely eventful Values Week.

Nine brave Year 12s set off on Gold D of E on Wednesday afternoon, heading to Snowdonia for five nights of camping and four days of walking. We are so proud of them all and are looking forward to welcoming them back next week.

We are all very excited for the Year 12 survival BBQ next Wednesday to celebrate surviving our first year of A Levels, and we are looking forward to Giving Day next week, when the Sixth Form will be running a ‘sponge the teacher’ stall. Thank you so much to all the teachers who have volunteered to be sponged!

Many of the Sixth Formers are very busy at the moment, heading to Open Days as we narrow down our university options. Good luck to everyone as you make your decisions!

Corellia, our fantastic Academic Prefect, is currently working on the latest edition of her termly Aspirations letter. I asked what we can look forward to and she said “since the last issue of the Aspirations Collection, work has been underway to bring the Sixth Form the summer edition. This issue includes a virtual bookshelf and so be sure to have a look when it is released! The academic committee are really excited to bring this edition to you and to hear what you think.”

Last week the final Maths Masterclass ran for the Year 5 students. Sophie R has been part of this project for this academic year and shared with us her experience “the sessions this year have been very informative for both the pupils and the A Level students who have been running them. The Year 12 students have learnt teamwork, leadership and communication skills. We have all enjoyed running the sessions and hope that the Year 5 students enjoyed attending them just as much. Thank you to all of the students who ran the masterclasses with myself, Emily E, Ariella W, Kirsten S, Louise B, Coco Z and Amily Z.”
