Last Friday I
attended an Old Maidstonian event in London which invited former students to
gather together and catch up with each other before travelling home after their
day at work. It was good to meet a
variety of OMs ranging from students who left in the 50s to those who left only
a few years ago.
Yesterday we
spent the day interviewing candidates for the Assistant Headteacher position
that will be vacant from September following Dr Everett’s decision to
retire. Governors, staff and students
were all involved in the process and I am pleased to say that we were able to
make an appointment.
Thursday this
week is the deadline for all applicants from Year 11 who wish to join our sixth
form from September. We are always
oversubscribed and so it is hoped, once again, that many students finally join
us in September after the many months’ long process.
This Friday is
the annual Parents’ Association Quiz Night, which this year has a British
theme. The event is always very popular,
but if you have not purchased your tickets yet, and you still wish to come
along, then please make contact with the School straight away. See you there.
