This week we have been focusing on our motto ‘Make a Difference’ and how we can make a difference to our own school experience by being organised and ready to learn.  Please ensure your son/daughter always has all of their equipment with them every day so they can make the most of their lessons and enjoy their learning.  In assembly, I spoke to the students about how important it is to drink plenty of water during the day and to do that they must always carry a reusable water bottle.  This can be the academy bottle or students are welcome to purchase one of their own choice.  There is plenty of research that shows us that a lack of water to the brain can cause problems with focus, memory and concentration.  There are lots of sports fixtures coming up in the next few weeks so please make sure you are using our new SOCS web based system to see if your son/daughter is taking part and all of the details about the fixture.  You can find all of the information about how to view it in previous editions of the newsletter on the website.  Congratulations to the Year 8 boys who won the Merton Borough Sportshall athletics competition!
