Weekly Update – 27 February
Year 8 Options: Mr Borkowski will be sending out links relating to Year 8 Options today in advance of the Options Evening on Thursday 5 March.
World Book Day: Tokens are available from the library ahead of World Book Day next Thursday 5 March. We will also have a stock of some of the books for students to exchange their tokens here in our library. Tokens can be used up to 15 March and can also be used to get £1 off other book choices.
It’s an easy win – so join in the big read! We will have a range of activities next week to support celebrating the day with ‘Who’s Behind the Book’ competition, WBD library lessons, recommended extract reading in lessons, the big Tutor Quiz and we hope to see a few real-life book characters wandering the grounds!

Second-hand items: We have a small selection of second-hand summer polo tops and Year 11 black jumpers available. If you would like any of these items, please email Reception with the required size and we will let you know if available. We no longer have a card machine so cash donations only please.

Kit Sponsorship: The PE department are looking for sponsorship for various sports kits. If you have a business that would be keen to sponsor, please contact s.frizzell@cps.hants.sch.uk
Year 10 Business Day: We held a very successful Year 10 Business Day on Thursday 26 February and it was amazing to see the students dressed so smartly! The day started with a talk from guest speaker, David Gibbs, a senior Vice President at Warner Bros, to the whole year group, followed by workshops led by external volunteers covering a range of businesses, including one by our own Mr Dovey on Teaching.
After lunch, even more volunteers arrived to interview all 330 students in 1 hour and 40 minutes. The visitors were extremely complimentary about our young people, giving some useful feedback.
We are so very grateful to all the volunteers who gave up their time today. Thanks also to the students for engaging with this useful process and to all the staff who enabled this event!
