Is there a God? Why are we here? Do all Christians wear socks and sandals? These are just a few of the questions that you can ask if you come on Wednesday 26 February at lunchtime in Room 2. The Christian Union will be there with some other people to try and answer any questions you may have. Everyone is welcome. ROBOT WARS CNS was successful with two teams in the Robot Wars competition. The winners will be announced in assembly after half term. The winners will be making their own robot with the help and funding from our sponsoring engineering company. ROAD SAFETY We remind students of the importance of their safety to and from school and ask students to take care, to behave in a sensible safe way, and show respect to other road users and pedestrians. “THREE SISTERS” The Upper School production of Chekhov’s “Three Sisters” will be performed at CNS on 27, 28 February and Saturday 1 March in the School Hall.

YEAR 12 FINANCE DAY It was good to be able to welcome to CNS on Wednesday several visitors from a range of companies and organisations.

Thanks to Mr Green, Mr Boyce and the SVE team for planning the event. |
