KEY UPDATES / REMINDERS / NOTICES
Warm Weather
With the warm weather forecast to continue into next week, we would ask for your support in ensuring that students:
- Bring a water bottle of sufficient size to last for at least two lessons.
- Apply suncream before the College day and bring additional suncream and a sunhat if needed.
- Take sensible precautions and stay in the shade during social time.
PE Kit Arrangements for the Remainder of the Summer Term
The flexibility introduced this week around uniform has worked well and has enabled students to remain comfortable whilst maintaining our usual expectations around standards and presentation. With warmer weather likely to continue during the final weeks of term, students will be permitted to wear their full CVCC PE kit on any day for the remainder of the summer term if they wish. Students may also continue to attend in normal uniform if they prefer.
Bicycle Passes
As the days are brighter, I would like to remind you that if your child wishes to cycle to school, they need a bicycle pass from Student Services. These can be obtained by completing this form- https://forms.office.com/e/wCzxUaP43t
Students cycling to school must wear a helmet.
