A
‘Looking Forward’ Evening for Fourth Year Parents 10th July at 7.30pm in the Dobson Theatre
s I write the sun is emerging from the clouds and some welcome cricket is being played very enthusiastically out on the south field. Examinations are over and there is a certain degree of bated breath as papers and results are returned to pupils. One group of Upper Sixth formers took their final A level paper in full evening dress; they were determined to go out in style!
Following the Looking Forward Day for Fourth Year pupils on 9th July, this evening session for parents will feature presentations and discussion on the decisions students will need to make about their Sixth Form academic choices, co-curricular involvement, and preparation for university entrance.
We are very much looking forward to some end of term activity with the Arts Festival, Sports Day, Activities Day, the KESSOC Summer Ball and the Swimming Gala all to look forward to, subject as ever to the vagaries of the English summer weather.
The day for pupils is designed to enable them to make informed decisions about their academic careers, and this evening session aims to support you as parents as you help them do this. Mr Thould, Mr Dellar, Mr Culver and Ms Greenwood will lead the discussions.
We hope to see many of you at these occasions as we move towards the end of term.
KETA BUSES On the last day of term all KETA buses will depart at 15:10. THERE WILL BE NO LATE BUSES
