Year 11

Just a reminder that there is no study leave for any students who are sitting external exams. All classes are running and there are lots of revision activities prepared for the students. Even if you have sat your exam in the subject you are still expected to attend the lesson and use the time to revise for other subjects until you have completed your last exam. Newman believes that the best revision is structured and organised by the school. It gives the students the opportunity to discuss problems with their teacher and allows pupils access to resources. Exams seem to be going well for both Year 11 and Sixth Form.

It's been a busy week at Newman. We held a year girls in engineering day which was thoroughly enjoyed by all who attended. Fund raising activities have been held to raise money for Eden Valley Hospice and staff have been busy writing reports for Years 8 & 10. One more busy week until half term!

Year 13

Today we held a farewell mass for our Year 13 leavers. The mass was led by Father Barron which was then followed by a lovely buffet for both staff and pupils. Tomorrow we conclude our leaver celebrations with a meal at Giannis. We wish all our Year 13 leavers well for the future.
