Secondary students are taking part in two exciting international trips this week, 24 Year 7 & 8 students have been taking part in the FOBISIA U13 games in Thailand where they have enjoyed success in athletics, swimming, basketball (where both teams won bronze medals in their competition) and football.

In what we believe may be a first for Ģ����Ƶ, we have two year 10 students on a school trip to Africa, where they are representing Ģ����Ƶ at a girls’ leadership conference hosted by Green Hills Academy, Rwanda. They are working hard on Leadership projects ready for a Dragon’s Den style pitch at the end of the week, but as you can see they are also having the opportunity to enjoy some more recreational activities!

Closer to home, the Leading Linguists have worked so hard before and during the half term for the Lunar New Year Celebration Assembly for the whole secondary. They made a video about the dos and don’ts during the Lunar New Year in Chinese culture. After showing the video, there was an interactive quiz and a challenging but fun karaoke “Gongxi Gongxi” (Congratulations)! If you would like to see their video please click on the link . It was also delightful to see the Y10 Mandarin class take the initiative to lead part of the assembly and teach some Mandarin phrases. Xiexie Maya, Ghazal, Triral, Kaustubh and Vivaan! led by our leading linguists.

Year 12 and 13 parent teacher consultations on Tuesday provided an opportunity to reflect on mock exam results and focus attention on the preparation needed for the final exams this summer. Alongside our usual activity programme there is now an extensive programme of exam support classes running after school available for candidate class students to attend.

On Saturday, a group of students from our Zonta club are attending the Flowing Forward Festival at Lincoln School aimed at promoting menstrual health amongst young people in Nepal. Our students will be leading one of the workshops entitled “Be the change: Fundraising, Policy Renewal, and Awareness within our Community” and�� sharing their experience of the work they are doing in the weekly Ģ����Ƶ Zonta club.

Next week we are hosting NISSA girls football and boys basketball afterschool on Tuesday and Thursday, the Year 9, 11-13 Careers Carousel on Thursday and the prefects are organising the Key Stage 5 ball on Thursday evening. Next Saturday the NISSA teams take part in the league finals, with Ģ����Ƶ hosting the girls football. Both the boys basketball teams and the girls football teams would really value plenty of Ģ����Ƶ community support at these fixtures.

You can find this week’s issue of our Ģ����Ƶ student newspaper The Yabbering Yak . This week we have the NEW U11 basketball team, All About Ramadan, a Spring drawing competition and lots more!
