Regents Review Winter '18

The Regents Review Winter 2018

GENERAL NEWS

Year 11 Thorpe Park On Friday, 7th September, 110 students in Year 11 went to Thorpe Park. This is the largest number of students who have ever been on one trip. It is fair to say it was the BEST DAY EVER! Everything ran smoothly, we were at Thorpe Park earlier than expected. Students managed to go on lots of rides with little, if any, wait times. Students were impeccably behaved and really loved going on the rides. Students had a fantastic day with their friends as motivation and reward for the upcoming work that they are expected to do this year. All the students really did let their hair down. Two members of staff did very well on the basketball games, winning not one, but two large teddies. At the end of the day we even arrived back to school slightly earlier than expected - an extra little bonus. Thank you to Mrs Jarvis and Miss Bishop who organised the day.

Armistice Day On the eleventh hour of Monday 12th November, staff and students observed a two minute silence. Once again, Mr Barron played the ‘Last Post’ to mark the occasion. A group of students came to school dressed in their Cadet uniforms and took on the role of selling poppies throughout the day to support ‘The Royal British Legion’.

Hot Chocolate with Mrs Barnes On Friday 16th November, students who had been ‘caught being good’ were invited to a hot chocolate morning with Mrs Barnes. Here are some of the comments from the students during the morning: “ I came here because of good reviews and I found out it is even better than I thought.” “Hot chocolate rewards.” “Everyone gets along - like a big family.” “The fact that Regents is trying to improve, every day is great.” “I get to be with my friends.”
