This week we welcomed back our Year 7 and Year 8 pupils after their period of home learning; we missed them and it is great to see and hear them back on the school site.

 

It has been a short week for all pupils with the INSET Day on Monday. Teachers spent the day moderating and standardising the Year 11 Mock Exam marking. Focussed discussion about the pupils’ responses to the exam questions now informs future planning and preparation for the lessons to take place between now and the actual exams. Pupils will also be receiving feedback in their lessons to inform their own preparation and revision.

Christmas at Cams Hill School – Tutor Base Competition

 

It is most definitely starting to feel festive around the Cams Hill site as Christmas trees and decorations brighten up our classrooms and corridors. This year, we are also holding a rather lovely tutor base competition. Each tutor group’s efforts will be judged in two categories – Eco Friendly and Traditional.

 

The bar has been set high with the beautiful “Eco friendly” offering from Miss Righetti’s Year 7 Tutor Group … though I think Miss Hull might be a bit jealous and, on the sabotage 😊

 

We invite all pupils to get busy and get involved with this festive fun!

Join the Portchester Beach Clean organised by @TheLitterLadiesThatLunch

Big and small hands – Portchester challenge!

All you need is a pair of gloves + bucket

Most inhabitants of Portchester are small, wear feathers and feed along the shoreline.

Have you noticed the little pieces of plastic that wash up along our shore?

We can all help clean up the mess and help nature feed better this winter.

With endless rubbish amongst the seaweed, it’s simply impossible without hands

 

So put your best fighting gloves on and join us on Saturday 5th December at Port Solent, Portchester Castle, Alton Road, Wicor Recreation Ground and Cams Bay

Pickers* can be provided – contact @TheLitterLadiesThatLunch

(*subject to availability and must be returned)

 

Be a part of a change for your better
