Secondary School Update (23 June 2023)

Dear Parents,

As we come to the end of another school year, I am filled with a sense of pride and gratitude for the wonderful community feeling that we have experienced together this year. It has been a year of challenges and successes, and through it all, we have remained committed to our shared mission of providing educational excellence and a place to belong.

To our graduating class, I offer again my warmest congratulations on your achievements and my best wishes for a bright and fulfilling future. You have been an inspiration to us all, and we are proud to have played a part in your journey.

To our returning students, I look forward to welcoming you back in August, ready to continue your academic and personal growth. I am confident that you will continue to thrive and succeed in the years to come.

To our departing teachers, I would like to express my deepest thanks for your hard work, dedication, and professionalism. You have made a lasting impact on our school community, and you will be missed.

As you enjoy your summer break, I encourage you to stay connected with your family, friends, and community and to nurture those relationships that give your life meaning and purpose. Whether at home or away, I wish you all a safe, enjoyable, and restful summer, and I look forward to seeing you in the new school year.

Chris Newman

To end our year in Humanities, we held a themed bake-off event that combined the art of baking with a focus on geographical and historical themes that our students have studied this year.
