Firstly
would like to thank everyone who supported the MGS PA Firework Display on
Saturday. The rain stopped just at the
right time to allow us to enjoy a wonderful display. Thank you to the Parents’ Association who
organise this event each year. It is
their biggest fundraiser, and their support of the school is very much
welcomed. Thank you.
Yesterday
our Area Education Officer, Mr Jared Nehra visited the school to see our new
Performing Arts building. He was
instrumental in ensuring the local authority supported our building plans and
so it was fitting that he visited us to see what we have been able to achieve.
Today,
all of Year 12 take part in the Licence to Kill presentation that we do each
year. The presentation is delivered by
KCC and is, I believe, the best PSHCE resource I have ever seen. I know that the students will reflect on what
they see and hear.
Thursday
is our Post 16 Open Evening where many of our own Year 11 students and
prospective students from other schools will visit to see if they would like to
study A Levels at MGS. The evening will
involve the Subject Fair, tours of the school, and presentations by key staff
illustrating why students should come to MGS.
The evening starts at 4.30pm.
Friday
is a particularly busy but important. In
the morning we have our Remembrance Service commemorating the fallen Old
Maidstonians from past conflicts, and in the afternoon Year 12 students receive
congratulations and acknowledgment at the GCSE Certificate Presentation Afternoon
where they will be presented with their GCSE certificates.
