from Nursery to Sixth Form

Mr Wilding’s Words Autumn 7

After all the hard work to prepare for our annual Fireworks extravaganza, we were perhaps fortunate that overnight Friday/Saturday morning the weather was so foul that we were able to make a decision to cancel the event in good time, the fields being so flooded!

Our butcher was able to keep the meat products in his cooler for use elsewhere, Rebellion took their draught beer back without cost and Star Fireworks are hoping to use our 12 minute display elsewhere too. Inevitably the PTA have borne the brunt of the fixed costs of the marquee and PA (circa £2500), and we will be working with the committees to see how best we can recover these funds too. The offices will be making contact over ticket refunds for those who had kindly bought tickets. 

Many thanks to Year 10 parents and pupils for their attendance at Parents Evening on Wednesday.  If you wish, you can see the presentation slides used as an aide memoire here http://schl.cc/6t
