Thank you so much to everyone within the school
community for such an excellent week. The triathlons
and Family Fun Day last Saturday were a roaring
success, with records being set on the track,
delicious cream teas, Guess the Stig, the Kings
College Big Band and the Nursery choir. Well done to
you all (talk has already started on how the event can
be made even better next year!).
Years 6 & 8 headed off to camp on Monday and we
will, no doubt, see lots of photos next week.
Meanwhile, Year 7 went to Normandy and visited the
Bayeux Tapestry and the beaches at Arromanches.
Back at school plenty has happened. The police came to visit Lower School on Monday with
their dog, Ned. Reception visited Wild About and Years 1 & 2 went to Clevedon. All this
happened whilst Miss Sheppard was away inspecting another school (sshhh, dont tell her!).
The Lower School Swimming Gala brought much excitement on Thursday. Years 3-5 got involved in a variety of activities
including a visit to the zoo, pond dipping, hikes, synchronised swimming, art and many more. They even held a World Cup
competition on Monday which saw Costa Rica beat Belgium in the final a result far more plausible than an England win!
And today Nursery visited Noahs Ark. What a week!
An e-mail was sent out to parents yesterday regarding the Upper School Swimming Gala which, due to unforeseen events,
will be moved to Wednesday 9th July from Thursday 10th. We apologise for any inconvenience caused by this swap.
Have a super Exeat weekend.

Lower School Swimming Gala
The Lower School enjoyed a fantastic, fun afternoon in
the pool during their annual gala. All put a huge amount
of effort into their work and swimming. The Swordfish
were leading until the final relays when the Dolphins,
Sharks and Stingrays started to level the scores. The
polo was highly exciting with Zachary and Amy
hammering goals in from all over the pool. In the end, the
Swordfish triumphed! A great afternoon was had by all! I
must also mention Alan England, Hannah Warn, Ceri
Russell and Jess Portch who gave their time up freely. I
felt incredibly old, as I taught Jess and Alan swimming a
few years ago and they returned to help. Thanks to all the
parents and carers who came to support.
