Friday 10th September 1999 - No. 15.02

YEAR 8
A meeting for parents of Year 8 students with Form Tutors will take place on the evening of Thursday 23rd September. A letter, giving detailed arrangements for the meeting, will be issued to students next Tuesday, 14th September.

YEAR 10
A report of Year 9 SATs results and teacher assessments will be issued today, Friday 10th September. The delay in producing the results stems from some marking irregularities which needed to be referred to the examination board.

LOCKERS
There has been a great response from Year 8 students and there are only a few spare lockers left. Students in Year 9 and 10 should pay their rental money into the Finance Office before 24th September and take the receipt to Mr Burns in Room 9 so that records can be updated.

Any students not wishing to retain their lockers this year should return their keys to Mr Burns. Any problems concerning lockers should be directed to Mr Burns. Students are advised to have a spare key cut (approx £2) and to have their locker number stamped on the key.

GERMAN EXCHANGE
Next Wednesday, 15th September, a party of 17 CNS students, led by Mr A. Fletcher, Miss Johnson and Miss Wind, leaves for Germany to stay with students from our partnered school, Gymnasium auf dem Asterstein, Koblenz. The exchange arrangements with Asterstein have been running for over twenty years.
WEBSITE
The CNS website, www.cns.norfolk.sch.uk - has been chosen by the Times Educational Supplement as one of five 'Cool Schools' from a very large entry. Our website has been judged to be 'particularly outstanding and original'.

Both meetings are open to students in all year groups and newcomers are particularly welcome.
