FROM CAN TO
CONSUMER
On 17 March a group of eight Year 12 Business students
attended a business activity day organised by Business Dynamics and Coca-Cola
Enterprises Ltd at Norwich City Football Club. The group were given a brief on
devising a new product for the soft drinks market. Professional advice was
available from business managers. The students worked very successfully in
collaboration with students from Earlham Sixth Form during what was a very
worthwhile and enjoyable day.
COMIC RELIEF Our non-uniform
and bad hair day on Friday last week raised £755.08 for Comic Relief. The
involvement of so many students and staff was good to see and the money raised
has been sent off to assist with the various projects that are supported by
Comic Relief.

INTERNATIONAL SITUATION IN IRAQ
Our thoughts are with those whose family members are
involved in the conflict, whether in the armed forces or as residents in the
Gulf region. Over the past weeks, issues surrounding the worsening situation
have featured in Assemblies and lessons. Our Amnesty International Group has
drawn to our attention the potential consequences for individuals.
Participation by students in out-of-school vigils or demonstrations can only be
sanctioned as a result of express parental permission. Please would parents be
aware that these events are not sponsored by or supervised by CNS or by Norfolk
LEA?
MOTORBIKE COURSE
A popular and successful element of our Study Support
programme came to an end this week. Several students in Year 10 have
participated in the programme and have learnt the basics of bike maintenance
and - under close supervision - operation. Well done to all those involved in
completing the course. |
