HEAD’S REVIEW Head’s Introduction
Congratulations to all those who took part in the Sea Lanes 12-hour charity swim for Rockinghorse. I am proud that Roedean swimmers were asked, because of our long-standing connection with this charity, to start and end this 12-hour marathon. I look forward to hearing the distance the covered yesterday evening and this morning – well done to everyone involved!
Year 7 History trip to Arundel Castle
Sea Lanes Charity Swim
Thank you to Mr Sampieri and the Languages Department for the European Day of Languages activities and charity bake sale. Not only is it wonderful to celebrate modern languages, but also to embrace those in our community who speak different languages and their cultures. The cakes were delicious too! The Year 7s enjoyed lovely weather for their trip to Arundel Castle last Friday, and they had a wonderful time seeing what they have been learning in lessons in its historical context. Our budding engineers have also had time to reflect on their exciting experience of racing the electric car which they have designed and built – despite the poor weather, they had a great time, and the car raced well! House Drama last Friday was hotly contested. The four House Teams did well to write and perform two 60-second plays with a futuristic theme – it was great fun, and each of the scripts was witty and considered. Congratulations go to House 1 for the best overall performance. I wish you all a lovely weekend – good luck to the 50 students and staff who are going to Calshot this weekend for their GCSE Geography fieldwork.
