Firstly, I wish to apologise for the tardiness of this week’s blog.  As you can appreciate my mind has been focusing on our return in September and ensuring we get as much done as possible before we break for the summer holiday.

This week a number of video presentations have been created and released.  My presentation on Monday provided more detail about the start of the new academic year, and will be followed on Friday with my final assembly.  The Heads and House and Senior Prefect Team put together a video to our new year 6 students; and the School Captain and School Vice-Captain, accompanied by some year 12 students, created an amazing video looking at the work we do in promoting good mental health and wellbeing, saying, ‘It’s good to talk’.  Do look out for these presentation as they get released.

The last thing to say is I do hope that you all have a pleasant holiday and a well-deserved rest.  See you all in September.

The last week for me was filled with looking ahead to the start of the new academic year.  The Government released its guidance last Thursday illustrating what schools are going to look like in September.  There is plenty to do to make all of the necessary adjustments, and life for a while will be somewhat different, but it will be so good having everybody back together. 

This week we are running a new event: The MGS Virtual Sports Week.  With not being able to hold the normal Sports Day the PE department devised a virtual competition that everyone can get involved with but from the comfort of their own homes.  All participants will generate points for their house, and some houses really do need the points!
