Dear parents and carers It has been a very busy first week back. We have enjoyed welcoming the students back this week and been inspired by their excellent attitudes to learning and dedication to their studies. Over half term a group of students went on a residential trip to Berlin. This was a great enriching experience for all and you will be able to read all about it in our academy newsletter next week. A large number of Year 11 students came in to the academy over half term to attend revision sessions for a variety of subjects. Well done to our students for both their commitment and dedication to their overall revision. On Wednesday evening the academy held the annual EPQ Sixth Form Presentation evening which was an inspiration. The sheer excellence of our students filled the academy with pride. It was so heart warming to receive all the positive feedback from parents on this evening but also feedback on how positive they felt the academy was moving forward. We were really fortunate to welcome Lieutenant Colonel Sulle Alhaji who fought in Falkands and Afghanistan, and served in Ireland who gave such an inspirational motivational talk to students from Years 8 and 10. My parent surgeries continue on Tuesday afternoons over the next half term. Please either email dharrison@cowesec.org or phone the school on 01983 203103 asking for Donna Harrison to book a pre-booked slot. With best wishes, Rachel Kitley
