The new date for the Silver Assessed hiking expedition is Thursday 11th October to Saturday 13th October.
C23 will be visiting the Royal Armouries Museum in Leeds for their immersion experience into their first expedition of Year 9. Students in Admiral will visit on Monday 3rd September and Skipper will visit on Tuesday 4th September.
We will be spending the full day there, although this should not fall outside of normal school hours. Should there be a problem with traffic we will post updates directly to the school website. With the museum only being in Leeds, this should not be an issue.
Students will need everyday school attire and equipment as normal but will also need a packed lunch. Students on free school meals will have a packed lunch provided.
Already looking forward to the new year!
Students have a small amount of revision to do over the summer for science. The work covers some of the fundamental knowledge which needs to be retained. This will allow students to make a running start to the year and will help us maximise the time available before their exams next year. Many students are confident with the ideas already so this will require very little work.
Secondly, there are some students who have not completed their ‘answer to the guiding question’ in science. It is important that students complete this before we return. It will be a challenging year for students next year as it is, so it would be beneficial for students not to have to catch up work on previous expeditions.
Finally, I do appreciate there will be weeks where Tassomai can not be done and that the most important thing for students is that they have a rest this holiday, however if Tassomai can be kept ticking over it would be useful to students.
I would be really grateful your support with this.
To both students and families, please have a wonderful summer and enjoy the deserved rest.

All students were sent home with Grade Cards today.
Below are the winning raffle numbers and prizes. These are ready to collect from the office until the end of Friday.
Tonight was Tracy Wain’s final event as Chair of FXP. I would like to take this opportunity to thank Tracy personally and on behalf of all of our students and their families for her tireless work in raising funds for our students.
This year, FXP have helped to raise money for 2 drum kits, amps, e-books for DofE, and this is in no small part down to Tracy and her dedicated team.
Tracy will still be helping out, but will be handing over the reins as chair.
Thank you Tracy for everything you have done!
As always, we would welcome any additional support that parents can give, even if just for one night a year. Please click on the link to FXP’s pages or their Facebook page to see how you could help or send the team a message.
