Congratulations to Hamish Reilly of Corpus
Christ House who, at the weekend, took part in the ETU European Youth Triathlon Championships. On the Friday of the competition Hamish
came through his semi-final in 3rd place recording the fastest bike
split of all 90 competitors. In the
final on the Saturday, Hamish again performed brilliantly to come home in 7th
place overall, and just 10 seconds off the podium positions. On the Sunday
Hamish was part of the mixed team relay. With 25 teams participating, it
was very exciting as places kept changing. Hamish was on the final leg, and successfully
brought the team home in 6th place. Well done Hamish.
Congratulations to the Year 10 students who
completed their Duke of Edinburgh Bronze Award assessed expedition at the
weekend. The good weather meant for some
pleasant walks around the Kent countryside.
Well done boys and thank you to all of the staff who volunteered their
time to support.
Well done and thank you to the Art and
Performing Arts departments for putting on the annual Art Exhibition and Summer
Production of Bugsy Malone. Many
students contributed both their work and their talents to help create three
wonderful nights of creativity and performance.
Congratulations to the art prize-winners and all those who took part in
the show. And thank you to all of the
staff who supported the students over these last few months.
Tomorrow is a busy day. A group of students from years 8 and 10 are
taking part in the Big Bang South East Science Competition, psychology students
from Year 12 are visiting Maidstone Crown Court as part of their A-Level
studies, and Year 13 students come in to school to return their textbooks and
attend the Leavers’ Tea following the end of the public examinations.
Friday is also another busy day as a number of
CCF cadets are attending the Armed Forces Day National Event, and we welcome
students from Year 11 and our visiting students to attend the Pre-Sixth Form Induction
Day.
