GHS Connect #16 Monday 9 January
Mia's notes
Welcome back to our first full week and I hope that everybody managed to ease their way back in last week, before the full five days kick in this week!
Students seemed pleased to be back on Thursday and there was a lovely, positive atmosphere around school. This is a short half term with only 5 weeks to go until the break, so it’s important that we set the tone for how we want things to be.
This week, Mark will be leading an assembly about behaviour expectations, we will continue our approach to use of the toilets, and will continue to work on punctuality to lessons. Lou has given a bit more detail about some pastoral reminders in the section below - please do have a read. There will also be some new other aspects about behaviour we will be tweaking, and more info on this will follow. One key change, which will be detailed in a further announcement, is related to PATROL, where any identified high profile child who is patrolled will automatically spend the lesson they were patrolled out of with either PYE, MAN, GRI or JOH.
Finally, a new term calls for new bright spots, so if you have anyone you want to thank or celebrate for anything at all, please do drop me a line so I can include it in Connect!
Have a good week,
Mia
