Dear Parents and Carers,
As we reach the end of a long and busy half term, I would like to thank you for your continued support. Our Year 7 pupils have settled in exceptionally well, and it has been lovely to see them becoming part of our school community and getting involved in school life.
Our enrichment activities are now well underway, with a wide range of opportunities available. Please encourage your child to get involved, try something new and make the most of everything on offer. You can also follow our sporting achievements and celebrate the successes of our pupils through our social media channels.
It was also lovely to celebrate our Key Stage 3 award winners at last night’s presentation evening. We are incredibly proud of their achievements and of the commitment they have shown. A special thank you goes to Dr Kelly who joined us as our guest speaker and spoke to pupils and families about his life post Alsager and how learning still forms a significant part of his life.
We have also held two Tea, Toast and Talk events this half term, both of which were very well attended. These informal events have provided a great opportunity for parents and carers to meet staff, ask questions and catch up with other families. Thank you to everyone who joined us.
Our student leadership teams have been working closely with our Pupil Voice Co-Ordinator Mrs Clarke and have established a new Wellbeing Lounge. This will offer pupils a welcoming space where they can drop in. We would be delighted to hear any ideas you may have about how we can continue to support pupil wellbeing.
Our phone pouches continue to work well in school, and we would value your feedback on how you are finding the arrangements at home. We have set up a dedicated email account where you can share your views: phonepouch@alsagerschool.org
Thank you, as always, for your support throughout the half term. I hope that you and your family have a restful and enjoyable break.
“Anyone who has never made a mistake has never tried anything new.”
