Charity Tuck Shop!!
C27 have been raising money as part of their final product by hosting a tuck shop on Friday break times. This week is our final push and we have LOTS for sale including crisps, biscuits, sausage rolls, toast etc. Alongside this we have the “sponge a teacher event” where students will be able to throw sponges at teachers during lunch!
The money raised is for St Johns Hospice, a local palliative care hospital which is very dear to our hearts at XP. So please bring in a £1 or 2 to support the cause!
Year 11 citizenship students received their grades back today and completed a self-reflection on how they prepared for their Mocks.
Students have taken this reflection home to discuss with parents/guardians.
There is space for it to be signed by parents/guardians and return in session time tomorrow.
Well done to year 11 for their hard work around their mocks!

C25 Mock Exams
We’re looking forward to welcoming Y11 back from their work experience week and will be cracking straight on with our mock exam preparation!
Y11 will sit mock exams from 29th November until 14th December, as detailed in the timetable above.
Revision sessions will continue to run during lunchtime and after school and attendance at these is very much encouraged. We will also run a D6 session on Saturday 3rd December for those students who would like to get together in study groups, or just need a quiet space to revise.
As we move closer to final exams, we will be inviting our C25 parents/carers to a GCSE information evening in the next year – an email will be sent out with details soon.

Crew Piper afternoon out
On Friday Crew Piper took a stroll to Lakeside for an afternoon treat. The sun was shining which meant everyone was smiling. Crew enjoyed an ice cream from McDonalds and a game of table tennis. It was a fab afternoon.
