Happy new year! We wish all our students and their families a happy and healthy 2023. We have hit the ground running this week, with everyone feeling recharged and refreshed after the holidays. This is an important term in which we will see students deepening their understanding of the key skills and knowledge that they are focusing on this year. As the new calendar year starts, it is a good opportunity to set our goals for the term and year ahead. I encourage you to talk to your child about the goals they are setting for themselves, both personally and academically – they might want to focus on a particular skill that they want to develop, or a subject they want to put more time into, perhaps they are going to try out a new club or enrichment activity, or get involved in a new area of school life…whatever it is, encourage them to be ambitious and to try something new – there’s plenty on offer! Have a good weekend. Mrs Cross Read the full newsletter here
