| Rockwoods |
Thank you to all for helping us to improve
the situation regarding the Rockwoods entrance and the
traffic congestion we experience. The anti-clockwise,
‘one-way’ system works well (for further details,
click
here).
It is important that all associated with the school
are sensitive to the needs of the local residents, particularly
regarding parking. The footpaths in the area are currently
being repaired—the damage has been done by cars.
You will be aware that the Police do monitor the situation
regularly. |

| Building Schools for
the Future |
Contrary to any rumours, the school is
still engaged in the BSF process. A £15million
scheme is due to start later this year.
However, it is true that there have been some technical
and structural issues, which have delayed the scheme.
We hope to be able to provide further details about
timescales soon. |

| Healthy Schools |
We are working hard to gain National
Healthy Schools and Wellbeing
Status. The health of young people has never
attracted so much attention and the Government has issued
guidelines and standards for food and drink in schools.
We will shortly be sending home a leaflet that explains
the recommendations we have been asked to follow, along
with useful information about healthy eating and drinking.
We ask, in the meantime, that you support us by encouraging
your son/daughter to choose healthy options in food
and drink whenever possible and, in particular, we ask
that you do not send cans of fizzy drinks into school.

| Year 8 Residentials |
Residential leaders are now in the process
of booking activities and they urgently need any outstanding
payments. Please could all Year 8 pupils ensure that
the total cost of the trip (£50) is paid in full
as soon as possible.
I would like to remind parents that the Residential
Parents’ Evening will take place on Monday
16th June at 7pm. This
evening will give parents the opportunity to meet residential
leaders and ask any questions they may have about the
trips.

Assistant Headteacher
