GOVERNORS/PARENTS MEETING The annual meeting of Governors with Parents takes place next Thursday, 27th May, at 7.30 pm in the Drama Area. All parents have been issued with the annual report and there will be an opportunity to discuss any issues which arise from the report- and from the OFSTED inspection report and action plan. Additionally, the School Council has produced a paper on school uniform proposals, following a survey of all students, and there is the first draft of the Home-School Agreement, both of which will be open to discussion. The Governors look forward to a large attendance of parents for what should prove to be an interesting meeting. SUMMER FETE The Summer Fete takes place on Saturday 26th June and the School Association Committee asks you to put the date in your diary. Any suggestions or offers of help are very welcome at this stage- please contact the school office. Over the next few weeks the Echo will give more information and make some specific requests for help- please watch this space. SUMMER CONCERT As announced in a previous Echo, the Summer Concert will take place next Friday, 28th May, in the School Hall. As usual, the programme is very varied, with jazz, classical, choral, orchestral and solo items. The concert will put the spotlight on CNS musicians who will be leaving this school this term, most of whom have been concert stalwarts for many years. Their musicianship and their hard work will be greatly missed in the new school year. |
