Regents Review - Spring Edition 2025

The Regents Review Spring 2025

GENERAL NEWS

Library It has been a very busy term in the library. We have been sharing books about the holocaust, chinese new year, international women’s day, empathy week and science week, with some great displays. Year 7 and 8 students join us for group or individual reading sessions in the library every week and they are enjoying the range of reading material on offer. We celebrated a love of reading with a fabulous ‘Blind Date with a Book’ event, where students were given a gift bag containing a mystery book, sweet treats, a bookmark and a review sheet, so that they can let us know whether their book date was a hit or a miss. We have also had an exciting World Book Day, with staff dressing as book characters and students taking part in activities throughout the day. In the Library, we have enjoyed an Emoji Book Quiz, made book themed crafts and handed out World Book Day books and tokens to as many students as possible.

We have started our paired reading group with Year 7 and Year 10 students on Wednesday mornings in the library. The wellbeing club on Wednesday after school is proving to be very popular, with students joining us for crafts and board games and some staff dropping in for a bit of relaxation too! We have some fantastic activities planned for the summer term. Please keep an eye on our social media for updates. Don’t forget that the library is open every day before and after school, as well as, at break and lunch time, so that students can study, complete homework or catch up on revision. Students can borrow books from the library and also have access to the e-book system via their Google Classroom accounts. If your child needs any help to access the facilities, please ask them to call in and visit the librarians, who will be happy to assist.
