FAIR TRADE EXHIBITION The exhibition in the display
cases (opposite the phone) is to draw the attention of staff and students to
Fair Trade products. It is a part of the school's activities to celebrate "Fair
Trade Fortnight". It was assembled by Sixth Form members of the Fair Trade
Group. The group meets every Tuesday at 12.45 pm in Room 68. All students are
welcome.
YEAR 11 PARENTS Year 11 Parents are invited to meet
individual subject teachers on Thursday 21 March from 5.30pm until 7.30pm. A
letter about this has already been sent home by Ms Bushell and students should
be making appointments with teachers. With six school weeks to go until the
beginning of final GCSE examinations, the evening provides an opportunity for
parents to ascertain areas of relative strength and weakness at this important
time. CNS revision materials have been distributed and students should be
planning their revision programmes for the remaining weeks. In addition, we
hope that some published revision materials will be available for purchase at
the parents' evening. |
