Dear Parents, Carers and Students

Thank you to the students for all of your help and support with the Open Evening this week. All areas were busy and it was lovely to see so many students talking so passionately about their subjects. The building looked fabulous with the continued painting, decorating and upgrades, with more planned over the coming year.

We welcomed hundreds of potential students and parents and many of them commented about how helpful and supportive the current students were. We have already had our first applications!

On Friday 11 November, as a whole school, we will be paying our respects at the Newport war memorial in St Thomas’ Square. We will be meeting in the hall as a student and staff body at 10.35 am, before walking silently into town. Remember to dress for cold and wet conditions.

Please can I remind parents and carers of students in Year 13 that we will be holding a virtual Parents’ evening on Thursday 10 November, with appointments available between 4.00 pm and 7.00 pm. Details of how to book via the online School Cloud system have been emailed to parents today.

Best wishes
Dave Mumford
