Dear Parents and Carers,
After a week it seems as though the students were never away! The start of the term was extremely busy and the students were involved immediately. I am glad to see that they are all working hard and getting positively involved with the school. Thanks also to all those parents who have volunteered to help the school as well.

After-school activities
A letter has been sent out regarding after-school activities and day-boarding. If you have not yet returned these please do so this week.
Swimming kit

For normal swimming lessons students may continue to wear their own swimming kit, however for after-school training and for swimming galas the following uniform/kit should be worn:
Boys: tight fitting shorts/trunks (dark blue / black)
Girls: tight fitting costume (dark blue / black) + swimming cap (dark blue / black).
Ski-trip
One extra place has become available for the ski-trip. If you are interested please speak to Ms. Heisele.

Charlie Bretherton
Headmaster
