Dear Parents and Guardians,
Well that went by quickly didn’t it? I can only imagine how many parents are thinking to themselves something similar at this time and that should be no surprise. Last week the IB examinations finished and A2 pupils attended their final lessons. Having been school pupils since they were four or five years old this is a remarkable moment in their lives and although there are still the examinations to come they should be proud of their achievements. On Thursday evening the house held a hog roast to celebrate both occasions and Adrian Lai also performed a wonderful solo at the school leavers’ concert. They have been a fantastic year group and they will be missed greatly next year.
It is right then that this is the time of the year that the Lower Sixth begin their progression through to leading in the house. Last week the new house monitor team was announced. It was a long and difficult process which befits the quality of the year group. The team looks exceptionally strong and I know that they will be well lead by Mr Noble. The House Monitor team for the year 2017-2018 will be:
Katie Akers
Tosin Attah
Robyn Davies
Melis Gilroy
Heather Lam
Mariam Makhmutova
Diana Mir Valero
Elisa Neuhaus
Vlad Bondarenko
George Elliot
Sergey Marchenko
Gian Marco Serra
Roy Tsong
Josh Yeung
Following half term they will undertake a series of training session in house and they will take up the day by day duties of the monitor team. I am looking forward to seeing them rise to the challenge.
For the U6th it is time for the pupils to focus upon examinations. Examination leave has begun and, as is tradition, the weather has improved! I am sure that it won’t be a distraction for them!
Until next time,
Best wishes
James
