Thank you to all of the students and parents/carers who attended our Federated Careers Information Evening on Tuesday evening. It was an important event as it highlighted the wide range of opportunities available to students after they finish Year 11. For any students who were unable to attend, the information booklets will be distributed for their perusal. For any students who need some advice and guidance around post 16 options, please contact our Careers team.
Our post 16 provision, The Island VI Form is currently arranging the taster day, on Friday, 25 November, giving students opportunities to spend a day on the VI Form site, experiencing subject tasters. This will be an exciting opportunity for them to get the first feeling of how they will be treated if they decide to follow this route. Year 11 will be sitting trial exams, w/c 9 January, so it is important that students are already revising and in good routines.
Tomorrow, Independent Arts in Newport are allowing a ‘Student Takeover’ event, between 10 am – 4 pm. Students from across the Federation will be taking on roles such as managers, creative practitioners, meeters and greeters and fundraisers. All details have been designed by our students, including publicity, window displays, workshop ideas and music. Please pop in if you are able.
As shared last week, tickets for our Federative production of Wendy and Peter Pan are on sale, so if you have not already done so, please support our young people by buying tickets for one of the performances on Wednesday 7, December or Thursday, 8 December. Tickets can be bought online through Medina Theatre.
Please ensure that students keep up their good routines of arriving on time, in full school uniform with equipment ready to learn and a good attitude to learning. This needs to be maintained throughout the year, day in day out, week in week out.
I hope you have a good weekend.
