SIXTH FORM WEEKLY BULLETIN Friday 3rd February 2017
Issue No: 30
Message from Mrs Freeman One of my 'fun' parts of the week is always teaching Year 7 on a Thursday just before lunch. 7S is a very excitable and enthusiastic form who I thoroughly enjoy teaching along with the help of one of my Year 12 students. This weekend I gave their books a really good going through and read their evaluations of the map skills topic. Low and behold two of them commented on how Daniella had really helped them learn the topic effectively. Not being one to take offence that my Year 12 student was of more use to them than me, I took great pride in the fact that RMS had developed a Sixth Form student who not only could do map skills, but also who could make a difference to the education of others (that key reason why most of us go into teaching!). Daniella is just one of many members of the Sixth Form who do this on a daily basis and you (parents and girls alike) should be very proud of everything you are doing to help others; this is what makes RMS such a special community. Have a lovely weekend.
Message from Fenella Watkins-Hale, Hind House PR I’d say approximately a third of Year 13 have come down with some sort of illness this week, and I suspect Year 12 share a similar figure. I guess we can blame it on the very cold and icy weather we’ve been experiencing lately, and I think we can all agree that some sort of break is in order – although, personally, my half-term will be filled mostly with revision notes and past papers in preparation for mocks. On another note, our two Year 12 Young Enterprise Groups – Spectrum and Baggle – are paying Intu Watford a visit this weekend to sell their products. Good luck to you both, your merchandise looks fab! Have a great weekend, everyone!
