Come and join the happy throngs enjoying not only the range of art, but also the entertainment and workshops on offer. There will be music — some of it from our own pupils, our ‘statues’ will be found in a range of locations, Claires Court Art & Craft Club workshops in the unit in Queen's Mall, opposite Argos, Art workshops in the old Waterstone's Unit in the Nicholsons Shopping Centre PLUS of course, our own students' art and photography on display alongside that of many other talented local artists. A ‘treasure trail’ of questions and answers around the event gives the opportunity to win prizes.
The Samba Band will perform at 12.50 and Sam McGregor will also be performing at 2.05 — both may be found at the top of the High Street on the stage located by the Boy with the Boat statue.

Congratulations to Daisy Rühle, 9B, who has been invited to attend the Netball South's Summer Programme for athletes with promise (PDP). PDP is an excellent opportunity for athletes looking to progress with England Netball.
Daisy will attend four training days in June and hopefully will then be invited to attend the Regional Screening session at the end of the fourth day which leads to selection to the Regional Academy. We will be delighted if Daisy gets selected as she will be the fifth Claires Court netball player to have reached Regional Screening!

Early last week, 11 girls from Year 8 and Ellie Rayer (Year 10) took part in the nPower BIG Dribble in Reading. The nPower BIG Dribble is an amazing opportunity for the Great British public to get into the Olympic spirit! The hockey roadshow has toured the country over 18 days giving people of all ages and abilities the chance to pick up a stick and take part. On the day, our girls joined Katherine Grainger (Rowing Olympic Silver Medallist at the Sydney, Greece and Beijing Olympics and London 2012 hopeful gold medallist) and took part in the attempt to set a record for dribbling hockey balls 2012km across Great Britain.
