Regents Review Summer '16

The Regents Review Summer 2016

DEPARTMENTAL NEWS

and all the teachers and students that took part in the event said that they learned loads and had a lot of fun. Year 9 would like to thank all of the staff at Life-lab for allowing us to borrow equipment for the event and for showing us that learning about health can be fun as well as rewarding. We would also like to thank Miss Croud and Miss Ruberry for their support and the students who took part on the day for helping us to raise money for the cause.

Sports Day

Whilst we broke from tradition of having our annual sports day at the Sports Centre, a fantastic day was had by all on our school site. In celebration of the Olympic Games this year, we decided to emulate a multi-activity event. The day event consisted of inter-year, tutor group and learning community competition. Students were given the opportunity to participate in a variety of activities such as waterpolo, dance, trampolining, table tennis, pétanque, dodgeball, superstars and our very own ‘Alternative Olympics’. Having such a variety of activities meant that all students were able to participate in an event that they enjoyed. When visiting every event it was fantastic to see students working together in a brilliant atmosphere, supporting each other and excelling in different sporting activities. A special thank you needs to go to Amber Turner Brighman and Tshana Wilson who organised and

delivered the Petanque event superbly. Also, another notable success of the day was a group of year 10 students who raised in excess of £130 by selling refreshments, the proceeds of which will be used by a group of students going on a school trip to Morocco, whereby the money will be donated and used for building irrigation systems and education facilities. The day finished with a prize giving ceremony which included musical performance by our X Factor winners, Joseph Horsfall, Nathan Stark and Joshua Cook and an incredibly talented Year 7 student Eleanor Hartley who astounded everyone with her performance of ‘Good Morning Baltimore’. Finally, a big thank you needs to be given to all staff for running and supporting such an extensive event. A brilliant finish to the year with the whole of the Regents Park School community pulling together for a day of competition, celebration and exercise.
