Welcome back,
I hope that you had a restful half term. A few things for the week ahead please.
1. We have a joint formal assembly with the Upper Sixth on Tuesday in the Main Hall at 1.20. Please be prompt as there is a lot to get through.
2. Remember that the mentoring system starts properly now. You no longer have the Monday and Thursday afternoon sessions, and you should have a weekly time and venue agreed with your mentor. If you have slipped through the net please see you mentor as a matter of urgency. Remember that it is your responsibility to be there on time.
3. Sincere thanks to the people who have agreed to sell poppies. It is appreciated. If you still wish to get involved with this, then please come and see me.
4. Above all, please note that this is a really busy half term, and what we are asking of you will be increasing. The key remains the quantity and quality of your independent study. Your mocks will be coming round very quickly indeed. You must be doing three to four hours a day outside the classroom. There are no shortcuts.
Have a good half term and work hard please.
Mr Kydd.
