Year 7 Art
Year 7 students have been busy creating ceramic slab animals inspired by Victorian collage artist Pete Cromer. The students have composed their own templates from their drawings to create layered slabs with beautiful surface textures. Soon they will add some colour.
Junior School Reminders
SCHOOL DIARIES:
Diary use across the Junior School has improved greatly this term. Most students have their diaries in class and are reaping the benefits of recording due dates for assignments and tests, to be able to plan their homework and revision. It is also handy to record dates, excursions and sports events in the school diary. Could all parents please continue to encourage their students to utilise their diary.
EQUIPMENT:
In Junior School, laptops are required for every subject and assignments are accessible through Google Classroom. Could parents please ensure that there is a regular routine at home for charging laptops and checking the completion of Learning Tasks both on Google Classrooms and Compass. Please email the Junior School Team if assistance is required.
There are two subjects that have unique equipment requirements:
1. PE and PASE
PE and PASE classes require a full Cheltenham Secondary College PE uniform, to be brought to school in a separate (named) bag. Students will change into and out of their PE uniform at the beginning and end of their scheduled PE and PASE classes. Students need to bring a note if they are not in uniform for these classes. As per our regular uniform requirements, students without a note, and out of uniform, will accrue ‘out of uniform’ points which do accumulate to an afterschool
detention (to be scheduled on Compass.) Please remind your children to check their timetable the evening before, and pack their PE uniform into their school bag.
2. Food Technology
Food Technology requires students to bring two tea towels and a food container to every practical lesson, to be able to participate. Please remind your children to check their timetable the evening before and pack the equipment into their school bag. Footwear is limited to hard leather school shoes in the Food Tech kitchens (to protect against scading/burning by hot liquid spills, and possible injury if a sharp knife is dropped.) Black runners are not acceptable.
