Dear Year 11 Parents & Students,
Welcome back to the final full term for our Year 11 students. I hope you are rested after our winter break. I would like to take this moment to wish you a Happy New Year and share what we can look forward to in the term ahead.
Term 1 was incredibly productive, featuring our careers workshops, options evening, mindfulness sessions, mock exams and Week Without Walls. With approximately 100 days remaining, this is a pivotal moment for students to reflect on how they manage their time – both during school hours and at home. Our goal is for them to balance their academic pursuits with intentional wellbeing practices, ensuring they stay focused on their goals while effectively managing stress.
