Year 11

It’s been good have the cohort back on deck this week, though they’ve been a little weary after the exertions of examination week. Results will be starting to filter through and it’s important that the students reflect on their performance and ask the right questions about what next in order to improve. Developing the skills that they need to ensure success takes time and patience. The best thing your daughter can do if she is disappointed with her performance is review how she prepared, action feedback that she has been provided and talk to her teacher about any questions she has to clarify how best to move forward. If you have any concerns about your daughter’s academic progress in a specific subject, the first port of call is to contact her class teacher.

We made the most of the beautiful morning on Thursday, heading outside for a session with our Year 7 Little Sisters. The Year 7 students had prepared cards to congratulate their Big Sisters on managing their examination week, and it was lovely to see their relationships develop. We finished off the week with a mufti day to raise money for the communities affected by the recent earthquakes in Syria, Türkiye and Lebanon. Hats off to Lily Hatton (Year 11) and Sara Yaqub (Year 11) who also organised for the café to sell gözleme to raise further funds for the cause.

As a reminder, the Winter uniform will need to be worn by all students from Week 1 of Term 2. If you need to purchase any parts of the new Winter uniform, please do so in the coming week. More information from the Uniform Shop can be found here.

The School has scheduled a make-up photo day on Wednesday 26 April 2023 (first day back) for House photos and any missed individual portraits. Formal school uniform will need to be worn on this day, which does not include the school pants.
