Assembly this Week
Mrs Markham led our assemblies this week on the theme of remembrance. She asked students to consider why we remember and then contrasted the views of Harry Patch; a WW1 who did not want to remember, with the war graves and the ceremony at The Menin Gate Memorial,Ypres. Students were presented with opportunities to reflect on the different types of memorials and to think about what they would remember during the 2 minutes of silence on 11th November. Our students, led by David and Rachel, Headboy and Headgirl, will take part in the Remembrance Day Parade in Woking on Sunday, organised and accompanied by Mr McLeish.
A New Frog!
The students in the photograph below were getting to grips with the new, improved version of our VLE, Frog. Mrs O'Brien and Mrs Cochrane were helping the students to problem solve their way through the new software, with the aim of ensuring that the programme is as user friendly as possible. All parents should have a Frog login, which helps you to access letters, information and homework. The notice boards are very useful and it is great to see the achievement points that your son or daughter has gained.
