DAVID THOMAS

Cheerful is probably the best word Cheerful after attending endless meetings

relating to education in London even though most of them were of no use to

us and just made our job more difficult cheerful when an injury to one of the

staff brought a dark cloud over the school cheerful to pupils staff parents and

governors during the seemingly endless time that the Upper School was in the

transition from Stepney to Bethnal Green and cheerful even when he was caught out for

for a duck on his first appearance for the staff cricket team

Many Heads can reasonably expect when they take up their jobs that there will

be a period at the beginning when they can sit back quietly and make calm

decisions about what needs to be done while the school carries on its normal way

When Mr Thomas arrived in 1980 there was no such honeymoon period Decisions

had to be taken quickly and this was not easy when he had no clear experience

of the evolutions which were in progress or in the pipeline grammar to compshy

rehensive St Judes to Raines Lower School and Parmiters to Raines Upper

School Nevertheless with authority and good humour he tried to bring together

all the bodies involved in the change and although for none of us was the

operation comfortable it has to be said that it might well have been a great

deal more unpleasant without the Heads abilities

Many people feel that when Rainampls finally became fully comprehensive it would

lose a lot of the popularity and charisma that it had when it was a grammar school

No longer they said would there be more applications for entry than there were

places available In fact during the last two years of Mr Thomass seven year

Headship there were over six hundred applications for the three hundred places

available in the First Year So much for the doubters And all credit to the

Head

We wish him well in the calmer waters of Enfield

A WARM WELCOME

Mr Lewis arrived at Raines in September

to take on the responsibilities and challenges

which the headship of a large urban school

always brings Having spent the last ten

years as deputy headmaster of Langham School

he will be no stranger to either responsibility

or challenge and as the school year at

Raines begins in its usual hectic fashion

I am sure he will find both his experience

and his energy most useful qualities

Prior to his post at Langham Mr Lewis

taught at Grey Coat Hospital Westminster

where he spent a happy seven years

Mr LeWis welcome to Raines We hope

your time with us is happy and successfulshy

unfortunately we cant promise not to

work you too hard

editorial This year sees the launch of a new look Raineian MagazineThe purpose of

this policy change is to give the magazine a more accessible look and feel that

it is hoped will make the pupils of the school (Who are after all the main

receivers of the Raineian) want to read it and to contribute to itAt the same time

we still want to reflect the raany varied facets of school life and so we have tried

to as usual include many reports on the various activities that have taken

place this year

The magazine has been produced with the kind co-operation and help 01 many

people and I would like to take this opportunity to thank them for their efforts

Mrs Howard Mrs Freaar Mrs Kirk and Mrs Shrimpton for typing it

Mr Johnson for invaluable help in pasting it up

Plaistow Press for printing it

Mr Blundell for poviding Art work

Dr CIOCI

Last term the school sadly said goodbye

to Dr Alfredo Cioci Head of Physics

at the school for seventeen yearsDr

Cioci was born in Florence in ItalyI

one of the worlds great cities

He lived and worked in various

countries of Europe before coming to

Britain twenty years agoHe liked it

here so much that he bought a house and

entered the teaching professionlt was

our good fortune that he accepted a job

at RainesMany generations of Physics

students can testify to the skill and

success of his teaching Dr Cioci has

a total commitment to Physics and few

teachers can match his grasp of the

subject

He will be missed but not forgotten

We wish him and his wife a very happy

retirement

BIRD AND GARDENING CLUB

Starting a Bird and Gardening Club in the middle of Bethnal Green didnt

seem like a very good idea at first but once we got a started and people saw that

it involved digging holes in the school grounds grovelling in mud and tipping

water everywhere everyone wanted to join in - and that was just the staff

Since spring the gardeners have replanted the old flower bed outside the

staff room window grown plants from seeds for inside the classrooms planted two

Whitebeam trees and trained three ivy plants to climb up the bike shed wall shy

well at least it makes achange from the second years

As for the bird club there have been many trips to Victoria Park to observe

the water birds on the lake - mallards tufted duckscanada geese coots pochards

etc - and two trips out one to the Walthamstow heronry and one to the Blackwater

estuary

At Walthamstow we saw many heronsgliding in to land on the islands in the

middle of the reservoirsJane McCarthy spotted a heron on the day we went to the

Blackwater too and Soleman Hussein pointed out a pair of cormorants pounding

a pathway across the skyMs Smith thought she had spotted a very unusual wading

bird on the shoreline but after a second glance she realised it was only

Leigh Hicks up to her knees in water looking for shells We did see a curlew

and an oyster catcher though as well as a great black backed and several blackshy

headed gulls

In spite of the appalling weather and everything else ( ) it was a great

day out Many many thanks to Mr Jones and Mr Philpotts for being such good

drivers and for of humour throughout

TALES FOR APRINCE THE DAPPLED ROCKING HORSE

There once lived a little girl whose name was JillHer mum and dad were poor but they always gave their child as many

toys as they could afford Now one day when Jill went shopping with her parents and

the house was as qUiet as amouse all of Jills toys started

talking and in the middle of the conversation a deep voice grumbled I need a new coat of paint

It was the rocking horse and yes he did need a new I

coat Why dont you go and ask someone to paint you suggested

the teddy bear And the rocking horse agreed

So the rocking horse set down from his rockers and set off

to look for a person to paint his coat

Soon he came across a group of frogs Excuse me could I

you possibly paint me a new coat of paint he asked Certainly said the frogs So the frogs got their paint I

and their brushes and went to work

Marvellous murmered the rocking horseHed look I

I

lovely with his new coat Very soon they were finished l

But oh dear He was an awful green colour So as soon as the frogs had gone the horse started rolling in the grass

trying to get as much paint off as he could But very soon he just lay still crying because he looked even worse than J

ever 10

~~------_______ ~------______ ~--__ -------______ ~~~---___ ----------__________ ------_______ --_-v ~- _=__=~~CJ

Soon a little crowd of mice came by and asked him what was wrongWhen the rocking horse told the mice they took pity on him and said Never mind we will give you a beautiful spotted coat of new paint but you must stand still because we will have to lean ladders against you to reach

So the mice painted a beautiful dappled coat just as they had promised and although their tiny little brushes tickled

the rocking horsf he never moved an ear He thanked them again and looked very pleased for now he

would look nice for Jill So if you know a little girl with a dappled rocking horse

~ou never know it might be Jill Katrina Randell 2J

teachers who have been enthusiastic in giving their time

We meet every week and have managed to organize an agenda for the year

If you would like to find out more about the way school council operates Im

sure your form rep Mrs NaYQr or Mr Phillips will gladly help

Why not come along to one of our meetingsjYou may have something useful to add

nutr my brab Tom Bus the recently bereaved widower arrived sadly at the coffin Syrup Funeral Parlour He banged loudly on the gargo yle knocker The door eventually opened and Tom was confronted by an eight foot tall muscle bound man in dark glasses The man had two metal things seemingly stuck to his

neck that Tom could only conceive were trendy fashion accesot~ies

You t~ang Sit~ - the giant asked slowly No I knocked but no mattet~ Tom t~epl ied

MATHS CLASSES ROYAL INSTITUTION OF MATHMATICS MASTERCLASSES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE

After the success of Professor Zeeman s televised lectures on mathnJatics

Christmas 1978 the Royal Institute organised a series of ten Saturday morning

classes to stimulate and encourage children in the art and practice of

mathmatics Third Year pupils who are mathmatically able and judged to have

potential and interest were selected The classes were held at the City of London

Polytechnic

Last year our school was represented by Nicole Russell Thomas Bentley and

Stephen Parkinson who all gave up ten Saturdays to rub shoulders with mathmatics

professors teachers and other matbmatically minded pupils They were so

bitten by the bug and created such a good impression on the organizers that

they were invited back to participate in Advanced Maths Masterclasses over the

summer holidays Following their success five pupils will be attending the

masterclasses this year It is hoped that Garoline Hughes Karina Cox Micky Kullar

Mark Killminster and Peter Lyle will enjoy the sessions as much as last years

group did

FOtamprth YbV Trif to VrlCS was Sam on the fifth of May when left school by minibus to catch the

Bam ferry to Calais It was very cold

windy on the boat so most of us

wandered around inside looking in

_and buying breakfast

~

At about 10am we arrived to be greeted

a sunny CalaiS and we started our journey through France to Ypres in Belgium On the way we saw several P l ll

Boxes and other structures left over

from the second world War On arrival in Ypres we went for a ten minute walk through the town After this

we were taken to the Menin Gate The

is one of the buildings that Ypres is most famous for as it is

names of all the soldiers

who have no graves and died in battles

in the First World War are carved in

stone There were thousands if not

millions of names chiselled on stone

~ plaques on the gate which is itsel f

was back to the van to visit

called Hill 60 which was a key

location in the battles as the side who ~~fP occupied it had a clear

a massive crater where allied tunnelling

companies had dug under the nill and laia twenty tonnes or explosives which

literally blew orf the top of the hill

We were taken to a museum at Hill 62 where there was part of the origi nal

trench network on exhibition We were

told that it gave a reasonably accurate

impression of what life was like in the

trenches It must have been terrible

Part of the trench was submerged in

water and there was slippery mud

everywhere

Original uniform supplies and weapons

were on display in Hill 62 museum and

also some genuine gory photographs

that made us realise the destruction of

life and buildinS that war brings After a short minibus ride we were back in the centre or YpresWe took a quick

look around the cloth museum answered

our question sheets on the Great War and

stole a last wander around the town to

rind some native rood( chipsJAll too soon it was time to go home after a

tiring but very profitable daytrip

PRACTICAL FIRST AID LECTURES WITH

THE BRITISH RED CROSS

We were taught First Aid by Paul

Tiffin of the British Red CrossHe

visited Uffi in our Life Skills lessons

At first we were embarrassed doing

bandaging and mouth to mouth reshy

suscitation but soon we became more

confident and started to enjoy it

An officer from the British Red

Cros s carne to the school to examine us

for our certificate We were all very

nervous

We think that everyone should

have the first aid training because

accidents happen all the time

DAVID THOMAS

Cheerful is probably the best word Cheerful after attending endless meetings

relating to education in London even though most of them were of no use to

us and just made our job more difficult cheerful when an injury to one of the

staff brought a dark cloud over the school cheerful to pupils staff parents and

governors during the seemingly endless time that the Upper School was in the

transition from Stepney to Bethnal Green and cheerful even when he was caught out for

for a duck on his first appearance for the staff cricket team

Many Heads can reasonably expect when they take up their jobs that there will

be a period at the beginning when they can sit back quietly and make calm

decisions about what needs to be done while the school carries on its normal way

When Mr Thomas arrived in 1980 there was no such honeymoon period Decisions

had to be taken quickly and this was not easy when he had no clear experience

of the evolutions which were in progress or in the pipeline grammar to compshy

rehensive St Judes to Raines Lower School and Parmiters to Raines Upper

School Nevertheless with authority and good humour he tried to bring together

all the bodies involved in the change and although for none of us was the

operation comfortable it has to be said that it might well have been a great

deal more unpleasant without the Heads abilities

Many people feel that when Rainampls finally became fully comprehensive it would

lose a lot of the popularity and charisma that it had when it was a grammar school

No longer they said would there be more applications for entry than there were

places available In fact during the last two years of Mr Thomass seven year

Headship there were over six hundred applications for the three hundred places

available in the First Year So much for the doubters And all credit to the

Head

We wish him well in the calmer waters of Enfield

J Everton

A WARM WELCOME

Mr Lewis arrived at Raines in September

to take on the responsibilities and challenges

which the headship of a large urban school

always brings Having spent the last ten

years as deputy headmaster of Langham School

he will be no stranger to either responsibility

or challenge and as the school year at

Raines begins in its usual hectic fashion

I am sure he will find both his experience

and his energy most useful qualities

Prior to his post at Langham Mr Lewis

taught at Grey Coat Hospital Westminster

where he spent a happy seven years

Mr LeWis welcome to Raines We hope

your time with us is happy and successfulshy

unfortunately we cant promise not to

work you too hard

editorial This year sees the launch of a new look Raineian MagazineThe purpose of

this policy change is to give the magazine a more accessible look and feel that

it is hoped will make the pupils of the school (Who are after all the main

receivers of the Raineian) want to read it and to contribute to itAt the same time

we still want to reflect the raany varied facets of school life and so we have tried

to as usual include many reports on the various activities that have taken

place this year

The magazine has been produced with the kind co-operation and help 01 many

people and I would like to take this opportunity to thank them for their efforts

Mrs Howard Mrs Freaar Mrs Kirk and Mrs Shrimpton for typing it

Mr Johnson for invaluable help in pasting it up

Plaistow Press for printing it

Mr Blundell for poviding Art work

Dr CIOCI

Last term the school sadly said goodbye

to Dr Alfredo Cioci Head of Physics

at the school for seventeen yearsDr

Cioci was born in Florence in ItalyI

one of the worlds great cities

He lived and worked in various

countries of Europe before coming to

Britain twenty years agoHe liked it

here so much that he bought a house and

entered the teaching professionlt was

our good fortune that he accepted a job

at RainesMany generations of Physics

students can testify to the skill and

success of his teaching Dr Cioci has

a total commitment to Physics and few

teachers can match his grasp of the

subject

He will be missed but not forgotten

We wish him and his wife a very happy

retirement

BIRD AND GARDENING CLUB

Starting a Bird and Gardening Club in the middle of Bethnal Green didnt

seem like a very good idea at first but once we got a started and people saw that

it involved digging holes in the school grounds grovelling in mud and tipping

water everywhere everyone wanted to join in - and that was just the staff

Since spring the gardeners have replanted the old flower bed outside the

staff room window grown plants from seeds for inside the classrooms planted two

Whitebeam trees and trained three ivy plants to climb up the bike shed wall shy

well at least it makes achange from the second years

As for the bird club there have been many trips to Victoria Park to observe

the water birds on the lake - mallards tufted duckscanada geese coots pochards

etc - and two trips out one to the Walthamstow heronry and one to the Blackwater

estuary

At Walthamstow we saw many heronsgliding in to land on the islands in the

middle of the reservoirsJane McCarthy spotted a heron on the day we went to the

Blackwater too and Soleman Hussein pointed out a pair of cormorants pounding

a pathway across the skyMs Smith thought she had spotted a very unusual wading

bird on the shoreline but after a second glance she realised it was only

Leigh Hicks up to her knees in water looking for shells We did see a curlew

and an oyster catcher though as well as a great black backed and several blackshy

headed gulls

In spite of the appalling weather and everything else ( ) it was a great

day out Many many thanks to Mr Jones and Mr Philpotts for being such good

drivers and for of humour throughout

TALES FOR APRINCE THE DAPPLED ROCKING HORSE

There once lived a little girl whose name was JillHer mum and dad were poor but they always gave their child as many

toys as they could afford Now one day when Jill went shopping with her parents and

the house was as qUiet as amouse all of Jills toys started

talking and in the middle of the conversation a deep voice grumbled I need a new coat of paint

It was the rocking horse and yes he did need a new I

coat Why dont you go and ask someone to paint you suggested

the teddy bear And the rocking horse agreed

So the rocking horse set down from his rockers and set off

to look for a person to paint his coat

Soon he came across a group of frogs Excuse me could I

you possibly paint me a new coat of paint he asked Certainly said the frogs So the frogs got their paint I

and their brushes and went to work

Marvellous murmered the rocking horseHed look I

I

lovely with his new coat Very soon they were finished l

But oh dear He was an awful green colour So as soon as the frogs had gone the horse started rolling in the grass

trying to get as much paint off as he could But very soon he just lay still crying because he looked even worse than J

ever 10

~~------_______ ~------______ ~--__ -------______ ~~~---___ ----------__________ ------_______ --_-v ~- _=__=~~CJ

i

Soon a little crowd of mice came by and asked him what was wrongWhen the rocking horse told the mice they took pity on him and said Never mind we will give you a beautiful spotted coat of new paint but you must stand still because we will have to lean ladders against you to reach

So the mice painted a beautiful dappled coat just as they had promised and although their tiny little brushes tickled

the rocking horsf he never moved an ear He thanked them again and looked very pleased for now he

would look nice for Jill So if you know a little girl with a dappled rocking horse

~ou never know it might be Jill Katrina Randell 2J

SWIMMING The rippling clear water Calming my tense nerves

As I lower my body

Then a final gulp-water rushing past me and

I come up for air Throwing my arms behind me To clutch what is not there

Afrantic kick I gain a little lead

Water in my mouth

The pace now slowing down

Only we know the pain ahead aching limbs gasps for air Awhirl-pool pulling at our legs I swallow wat8r but before me

The end In a final kick I rake the water Its good to feel something solid

My pounding heart

RUNNING Must keep going

To reach my destination Something pushing me

An inward fascination

Step by step

Mouth open Breath panting

Rain fall ing

Wi nd whi st ling Feet pounding Getting slower Flag ahead

Confidence growing Lorger steps Growing faster -shyTwo more steps - shyOne and finished

Across the lineshyMission accomplished

teachers who have been enthusiastic in giving their time

We meet every week and have managed to organize an agenda for the year

If you would like to find out more about the way school council operates Im

sure your form rep Mrs NaYQr or Mr Phillips will gladly help

Why not come along to one of our meetingsjYou may have something useful to add

MATHS CLASSES ROYAL INSTITUTION OF MATHMATICS MASTERCLASSES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE

After the success of Professor Zeeman s televised lectures on mathnJatics

Christmas 1978 the Royal Institute organised a series of ten Saturday morning

classes to stimulate and encourage children in the art and practice of

mathmatics Third Year pupils who are mathmatically able and judged to have

potential and interest were selected The classes were held at the City of London

Polytechnic

Last year our school was represented by Nicole Russell Thomas Bentley and

Stephen Parkinson who all gave up ten Saturdays to rub shoulders with mathmatics

professors teachers and other matbmatically minded pupils They were so

bitten by the bug and created such a good impression on the organizers that

they were invited back to participate in Advanced Maths Masterclasses over the

summer holidays Following their success five pupils will be attending the

masterclasses this year It is hoped that Garoline Hughes Karina Cox Micky Kullar

Mark Killminster and Peter Lyle will enjoy the sessions as much as last years

group did

FOtamprth YbV Trif to VrlCS was Sam on the fifth of May when left school by minibus to catch the

Bam ferry to Calais It was very cold

windy on the boat so most of us

wandered around inside looking in

_and buying breakfast

~

At about 10am we arrived to be greeted

a sunny CalaiS and we started our journey through France to Ypres in Belgium On the way we saw several P l ll

Boxes and other structures left over

from the second world War On arrival in Ypres we went for a ten minute walk through the town After this

we were taken to the Menin Gate The

is one of the buildings that Ypres is most famous for as it is

names of all the soldiers

who have no graves and died in battles

in the First World War are carved in

stone There were thousands if not

millions of names chiselled on stone

~ plaques on the gate which is itsel f

was back to the van to visit

called Hill 60 which was a key

location in the battles as the side who ~~fP occupied it had a clear

a massive crater where allied tunnelling

companies had dug under the nill and laia twenty tonnes or explosives which

literally blew orf the top of the hill

We were taken to a museum at Hill 62 where there was part of the origi nal

trench network on exhibition We were

told that it gave a reasonably accurate

impression of what life was like in the

trenches It must have been terrible

Part of the trench was submerged in

water and there was slippery mud

everywhere

Original uniform supplies and weapons

were on display in Hill 62 museum and

also some genuine gory photographs

that made us realise the destruction of

life and buildinS that war brings After a short minibus ride we were back in the centre or YpresWe took a quick

look around the cloth museum answered

our question sheets on the Great War and

stole a last wander around the town to

rind some native rood( chipsJAll too soon it was time to go home after a

tiring but very profitable daytrip

PRACTICAL FIRST AID LECTURES WITH

THE BRITISH RED CROSS

We were taught First Aid by Paul

Tiffin of the British Red CrossHe

visited Uffi in our Life Skills lessons

At first we were embarrassed doing

bandaging and mouth to mouth reshy

suscitation but soon we became more

confident and started to enjoy it

An officer from the British Red

Cros s carne to the school to examine us

for our certificate We were all very

nervous

We think that everyone should

have the first aid training because

accidents happen all the time

DAVID THOMAS

Cheerful is probably the best word Cheerful after attending endless meetings

relating to education in London even though most of them were of no use to

us and just made our job more difficult cheerful when an injury to one of the

staff brought a dark cloud over the school cheerful to pupils staff parents and

governors during the seemingly endless time that the Upper School was in the

transition from Stepney to Bethnal Green and cheerful even when he was caught out for

for a duck on his first appearance for the staff cricket team

Many Heads can reasonably expect when they take up their jobs that there will

be a period at the beginning when they can sit back quietly and make calm

decisions about what needs to be done while the school carries on its normal way

When Mr Thomas arrived in 1980 there was no such honeymoon period Decisions

had to be taken quickly and this was not easy when he had no clear experience

of the evolutions which were in progress or in the pipeline grammar to compshy

rehensive St Judes to Raines Lower School and Parmiters to Raines Upper

School Nevertheless with authority and good humour he tried to bring together

all the bodies involved in the change and although for none of us was the

operation comfortable it has to be said that it might well have been a great

deal more unpleasant without the Heads abilities

Many people feel that when Rainampls finally became fully comprehensive it would

lose a lot of the popularity and charisma that it had when it was a grammar school

No longer they said would there be more applications for entry than there were

places available In fact during the last two years of Mr Thomass seven year

Headship there were over six hundred applications for the three hundred places

available in the First Year So much for the doubters And all credit to the

Head

We wish him well in the calmer waters of Enfield

J Everton

A WARM WELCOME

Mr Lewis arrived at Raines in September

to take on the responsibilities and challenges

which the headship of a large urban school

always brings Having spent the last ten

years as deputy headmaster of Langham School

he will be no stranger to either responsibility

or challenge and as the school year at

Raines begins in its usual hectic fashion

I am sure he will find both his experience

and his energy most useful qualities

Prior to his post at Langham Mr Lewis

taught at Grey Coat Hospital Westminster

where he spent a happy seven years

Mr LeWis welcome to Raines We hope

your time with us is happy and successfulshy

unfortunately we cant promise not to

work you too hard

editorial This year sees the launch of a new look Raineian MagazineThe purpose of

this policy change is to give the magazine a more accessible look and feel that

it is hoped will make the pupils of the school (Who are after all the main

receivers of the Raineian) want to read it and to contribute to itAt the same time

we still want to reflect the raany varied facets of school life and so we have tried

to as usual include many reports on the various activities that have taken

place this year

The magazine has been produced with the kind co-operation and help 01 many

people and I would like to take this opportunity to thank them for their efforts

Mrs Howard Mrs Freaar Mrs Kirk and Mrs Shrimpton for typing it

Mr Johnson for invaluable help in pasting it up

Plaistow Press for printing it

Mr Blundell for poviding Art work

Dr CIOCI

Last term the school sadly said goodbye

to Dr Alfredo Cioci Head of Physics

at the school for seventeen yearsDr

Cioci was born in Florence in ItalyI

one of the worlds great cities

He lived and worked in various

countries of Europe before coming to

Britain twenty years agoHe liked it

here so much that he bought a house and

entered the teaching professionlt was

our good fortune that he accepted a job

at RainesMany generations of Physics

students can testify to the skill and

success of his teaching Dr Cioci has

a total commitment to Physics and few

teachers can match his grasp of the

subject

He will be missed but not forgotten

We wish him and his wife a very happy

retirement

BIRD AND GARDENING CLUB

Starting a Bird and Gardening Club in the middle of Bethnal Green didnt

seem like a very good idea at first but once we got a started and people saw that

it involved digging holes in the school grounds grovelling in mud and tipping

water everywhere everyone wanted to join in - and that was just the staff

Since spring the gardeners have replanted the old flower bed outside the

staff room window grown plants from seeds for inside the classrooms planted two

Whitebeam trees and trained three ivy plants to climb up the bike shed wall shy

well at least it makes achange from the second years

As for the bird club there have been many trips to Victoria Park to observe

the water birds on the lake - mallards tufted duckscanada geese coots pochards

etc - and two trips out one to the Walthamstow heronry and one to the Blackwater

estuary

At Walthamstow we saw many heronsgliding in to land on the islands in the

middle of the reservoirsJane McCarthy spotted a heron on the day we went to the

Blackwater too and Soleman Hussein pointed out a pair of cormorants pounding

a pathway across the skyMs Smith thought she had spotted a very unusual wading

bird on the shoreline but after a second glance she realised it was only

Leigh Hicks up to her knees in water looking for shells We did see a curlew

and an oyster catcher though as well as a great black backed and several blackshy

headed gulls

In spite of the appalling weather and everything else ( ) it was a great

day out Many many thanks to Mr Jones and Mr Philpotts for being such good

drivers and for of humour throughout

TALES FOR APRINCE THE DAPPLED ROCKING HORSE

There once lived a little girl whose name was JillHer mum and dad were poor but they always gave their child as many

toys as they could afford Now one day when Jill went shopping with her parents and

the house was as qUiet as amouse all of Jills toys started

talking and in the middle of the conversation a deep voice grumbled I need a new coat of paint

It was the rocking horse and yes he did need a new I

coat Why dont you go and ask someone to paint you suggested

the teddy bear And the rocking horse agreed

So the rocking horse set down from his rockers and set off

to look for a person to paint his coat

Soon he came across a group of frogs Excuse me could I

you possibly paint me a new coat of paint he asked Certainly said the frogs So the frogs got their paint I

and their brushes and went to work

Marvellous murmered the rocking horseHed look I

I

lovely with his new coat Very soon they were finished l

But oh dear He was an awful green colour So as soon as the frogs had gone the horse started rolling in the grass

trying to get as much paint off as he could But very soon he just lay still crying because he looked even worse than J

ever 10

~~------_______ ~------______ ~--__ -------______ ~~~---___ ----------__________ ------_______ --_-v ~- _=__=~~CJ

i

Soon a little crowd of mice came by and asked him what was wrongWhen the rocking horse told the mice they took pity on him and said Never mind we will give you a beautiful spotted coat of new paint but you must stand still because we will have to lean ladders against you to reach

So the mice painted a beautiful dappled coat just as they had promised and although their tiny little brushes tickled

the rocking horsf he never moved an ear He thanked them again and looked very pleased for now he

would look nice for Jill So if you know a little girl with a dappled rocking horse

~ou never know it might be Jill Katrina Randell 2J

SWIMMING The rippling clear water Calming my tense nerves

As I lower my body

Then a final gulp-water rushing past me and

I come up for air Throwing my arms behind me To clutch what is not there

Afrantic kick I gain a little lead

Water in my mouth

The pace now slowing down

Only we know the pain ahead aching limbs gasps for air Awhirl-pool pulling at our legs I swallow wat8r but before me

The end In a final kick I rake the water Its good to feel something solid

My pounding heart

RUNNING Must keep going

To reach my destination Something pushing me

An inward fascination

Step by step

Mouth open Breath panting

Rain fall ing

Wi nd whi st ling Feet pounding Getting slower Flag ahead

Confidence growing Lorger steps Growing faster -shyTwo more steps - shyOne and finished

Across the lineshyMission accomplished

SCHOOL COUNCIL

After a very slow start the lower school council has managed this year

to organize itself much better thanks to the form representatives and the form

teachers who have been enthusiastic in giving their time

We meet every week and have managed to organize an agenda for the year

If you would like to find out more about the way school council operates Im

sure your form rep Mrs NaYQr or Mr Phillips will gladly help

Why not come along to one of our meetingsjYou may have something useful to add

MATHS CLASSES ROYAL INSTITUTION OF MATHMATICS MASTERCLASSES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE

After the success of Professor Zeeman s televised lectures on mathnJatics

Christmas 1978 the Royal Institute organised a series of ten Saturday morning

classes to stimulate and encourage children in the art and practice of

mathmatics Third Year pupils who are mathmatically able and judged to have

potential and interest were selected The classes were held at the City of London

Polytechnic

Last year our school was represented by Nicole Russell Thomas Bentley and

Stephen Parkinson who all gave up ten Saturdays to rub shoulders with mathmatics

professors teachers and other matbmatically minded pupils They were so

bitten by the bug and created such a good impression on the organizers that

they were invited back to participate in Advanced Maths Masterclasses over the

summer holidays Following their success five pupils will be attending the

masterclasses this year It is hoped that Garoline Hughes Karina Cox Micky Kullar

Mark Killminster and Peter Lyle will enjoy the sessions as much as last years

group did

Bam ferry to Calais It was very cold

windy on the boat so most of us

wandered around inside looking in

_and buying breakfast

~

At about 10am we arrived to be greeted

a sunny CalaiS and we started our journey through France to Ypres in Belgium On the way we saw several P l ll

Boxes and other structures left over

from the second world War On arrival in Ypres we went for a ten minute walk through the town After this

we were taken to the Menin Gate The

is one of the buildings that Ypres is most famous for as it is

names of all the soldiers

who have no graves and died in battles

in the First World War are carved in

stone There were thousands if not

millions of names chiselled on stone

~ plaques on the gate which is itsel f

was back to the van to visit

called Hill 60 which was a key

location in the battles as the side who ~~fP occupied it had a clear

a massive crater where allied tunnelling

companies had dug under the nill and laia twenty tonnes or explosives which

literally blew orf the top of the hill

We were taken to a museum at Hill 62 where there was part of the origi nal

trench network on exhibition We were

told that it gave a reasonably accurate

impression of what life was like in the

trenches It must have been terrible

Part of the trench was submerged in

water and there was slippery mud

everywhere

Original uniform supplies and weapons

were on display in Hill 62 museum and

also some genuine gory photographs

that made us realise the destruction of

life and buildinS that war brings After a short minibus ride we were back in the centre or YpresWe took a quick

look around the cloth museum answered

our question sheets on the Great War and

stole a last wander around the town to

rind some native rood( chipsJAll too soon it was time to go home after a

tiring but very profitable daytrip

PRACTICAL FIRST AID LECTURES WITH

THE BRITISH RED CROSS

We were taught First Aid by Paul

Tiffin of the British Red CrossHe

visited Uffi in our Life Skills lessons

At first we were embarrassed doing

bandaging and mouth to mouth reshy

suscitation but soon we became more

confident and started to enjoy it

An officer from the British Red

Cros s carne to the school to examine us

for our certificate We were all very

nervous

We think that everyone should

have the first aid training because

accidents happen all the time

bull bull bullbullbull A FOND FAREWELL

DAVID THOMAS

Cheerful is probably the best word Cheerful after attending endless meetings

relating to education in London even though most of them were of no use to

us and just made our job more difficult cheerful when an injury to one of the

staff brought a dark cloud over the school cheerful to pupils staff parents and

governors during the seemingly endless time that the Upper School was in the

transition from Stepney to Bethnal Green and cheerful even when he was caught out for

for a duck on his first appearance for the staff cricket team

Many Heads can reasonably expect when they take up their jobs that there will

be a period at the beginning when they can sit back quietly and make calm

decisions about what needs to be done while the school carries on its normal way

When Mr Thomas arrived in 1980 there was no such honeymoon period Decisions

had to be taken quickly and this was not easy when he had no clear experience

of the evolutions which were in progress or in the pipeline grammar to compshy

rehensive St Judes to Raines Lower School and Parmiters to Raines Upper

School Nevertheless with authority and good humour he tried to bring together

all the bodies involved in the change and although for none of us was the

operation comfortable it has to be said that it might well have been a great

deal more unpleasant without the Heads abilities

Many people feel that when Rainampls finally became fully comprehensive it would

lose a lot of the popularity and charisma that it had when it was a grammar school

No longer they said would there be more applications for entry than there were

places available In fact during the last two years of Mr Thomass seven year

Headship there were over six hundred applications for the three hundred places

available in the First Year So much for the doubters And all credit to the

Head

We wish him well in the calmer waters of Enfield

J Everton

A WARM WELCOME

Mr Lewis arrived at Raines in September

to take on the responsibilities and challenges

which the headship of a large urban school

always brings Having spent the last ten

years as deputy headmaster of Langham School

he will be no stranger to either responsibility

or challenge and as the school year at

Raines begins in its usual hectic fashion

I am sure he will find both his experience

and his energy most useful qualities

Prior to his post at Langham Mr Lewis

taught at Grey Coat Hospital Westminster

where he spent a happy seven years

Mr LeWis welcome to Raines We hope

your time with us is happy and successfulshy

unfortunately we cant promise not to

work you too hard

editorial This year sees the launch of a new look Raineian MagazineThe purpose of

this policy change is to give the magazine a more accessible look and feel that

it is hoped will make the pupils of the school (Who are after all the main

receivers of the Raineian) want to read it and to contribute to itAt the same time

we still want to reflect the raany varied facets of school life and so we have tried

to as usual include many reports on the various activities that have taken

place this year

The magazine has been produced with the kind co-operation and help 01 many

people and I would like to take this opportunity to thank them for their efforts

Mrs Howard Mrs Freaar Mrs Kirk and Mrs Shrimpton for typing it

Mr Johnson for invaluable help in pasting it up

Plaistow Press for printing it

Mr Blundell for poviding Art work

Dr CIOCI

Last term the school sadly said goodbye

to Dr Alfredo Cioci Head of Physics

at the school for seventeen yearsDr

Cioci was born in Florence in ItalyI

one of the worlds great cities

He lived and worked in various

countries of Europe before coming to

Britain twenty years agoHe liked it

here so much that he bought a house and

entered the teaching professionlt was

our good fortune that he accepted a job

at RainesMany generations of Physics

students can testify to the skill and

success of his teaching Dr Cioci has

a total commitment to Physics and few

teachers can match his grasp of the

subject

He will be missed but not forgotten

We wish him and his wife a very happy

retirement

BIRD AND GARDENING CLUB

Starting a Bird and Gardening Club in the middle of Bethnal Green didnt

seem like a very good idea at first but once we got a started and people saw that

it involved digging holes in the school grounds grovelling in mud and tipping

water everywhere everyone wanted to join in - and that was just the staff

Since spring the gardeners have replanted the old flower bed outside the

staff room window grown plants from seeds for inside the classrooms planted two

Whitebeam trees and trained three ivy plants to climb up the bike shed wall shy

well at least it makes achange from the second years

As for the bird club there have been many trips to Victoria Park to observe

the water birds on the lake - mallards tufted duckscanada geese coots pochards

etc - and two trips out one to the Walthamstow heronry and one to the Blackwater

estuary

At Walthamstow we saw many heronsgliding in to land on the islands in the

middle of the reservoirsJane McCarthy spotted a heron on the day we went to the

Blackwater too and Soleman Hussein pointed out a pair of cormorants pounding

a pathway across the skyMs Smith thought she had spotted a very unusual wading

bird on the shoreline but after a second glance she realised it was only

Leigh Hicks up to her knees in water looking for shells We did see a curlew

and an oyster catcher though as well as a great black backed and several blackshy

headed gulls

In spite of the appalling weather and everything else ( ) it was a great

day out Many many thanks to Mr Jones and Mr Philpotts for being such good

drivers and for of humour throughout

TALES FOR APRINCE THE DAPPLED ROCKING HORSE

There once lived a little girl whose name was JillHer mum and dad were poor but they always gave their child as many

toys as they could afford Now one day when Jill went shopping with her parents and

the house was as qUiet as amouse all of Jills toys started

talking and in the middle of the conversation a deep voice grumbled I need a new coat of paint

It was the rocking horse and yes he did need a new I

coat Why dont you go and ask someone to paint you suggested

the teddy bear And the rocking horse agreed

So the rocking horse set down from his rockers and set off

to look for a person to paint his coat

Soon he came across a group of frogs Excuse me could I

you possibly paint me a new coat of paint he asked Certainly said the frogs So the frogs got their paint I

and their brushes and went to work

Marvellous murmered the rocking horseHed look I

I

lovely with his new coat Very soon they were finished l

But oh dear He was an awful green colour So as soon as the frogs had gone the horse started rolling in the grass

trying to get as much paint off as he could But very soon he just lay still crying because he looked even worse than J

ever 10

Soon a little crowd of mice came by and asked him what was wrongWhen the rocking horse told the mice they took pity on him and said Never mind we will give you a beautiful spotted coat of new paint but you must stand still because we will have to lean ladders against you to reach

So the mice painted a beautiful dappled coat just as they had promised and although their tiny little brushes tickled

the rocking horsf he never moved an ear He thanked them again and looked very pleased for now he

would look nice for Jill So if you know a little girl with a dappled rocking horse

~ou never know it might be Jill Katrina Randell 2J

SWIMMING The rippling clear water Calming my tense nerves

As I lower my body

Then a final gulp-water rushing past me and

I come up for air Throwing my arms behind me To clutch what is not there

Afrantic kick I gain a little lead

Water in my mouth

The pace now slowing down

Only we know the pain ahead aching limbs gasps for air Awhirl-pool pulling at our legs I swallow wat8r but before me

The end In a final kick I rake the water Its good to feel something solid

My pounding heart

RUNNING Must keep going

To reach my destination Something pushing me

An inward fascination

Step by step

Mouth open Breath panting

Rain fall ing

Wi nd whi st ling Feet pounding Getting slower Flag ahead

Confidence growing Lorger steps Growing faster -shyTwo more steps - shyOne and finished

Across the lineshyMission accomplished

MATHS CLASSES ROYAL INSTITUTION OF MATHMATICS MASTERCLASSES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE

After the success of Professor Zeeman s televised lectures on mathnJatics

Christmas 1978 the Royal Institute organised a series of ten Saturday morning

classes to stimulate and encourage children in the art and practice of

mathmatics Third Year pupils who are mathmatically able and judged to have

potential and interest were selected The classes were held at the City of London

Polytechnic

Last year our school was represented by Nicole Russell Thomas Bentley and

Stephen Parkinson who all gave up ten Saturdays to rub shoulders with mathmatics

professors teachers and other matbmatically minded pupils They were so

bitten by the bug and created such a good impression on the organizers that

they were invited back to participate in Advanced Maths Masterclasses over the

summer holidays Following their success five pupils will be attending the

masterclasses this year It is hoped that Garoline Hughes Karina Cox Micky Kullar

Mark Killminster and Peter Lyle will enjoy the sessions as much as last years

group did

FOtamprth YbV Trif to VrlCS was Sam on the fifth of May when left school by minibus to catch the

Bam ferry to Calais It was very cold

windy on the boat so most of us

wandered around inside looking in

_and buying breakfast

~

At about 10am we arrived to be greeted

a sunny CalaiS and we started our journey through France to Ypres in Belgium On the way we saw several P l ll

Boxes and other structures left over

from the second world War On arrival in Ypres we went for a ten minute walk through the town After this

we were taken to the Menin Gate The

is one of the buildings that Ypres is most famous for as it is

names of all the soldiers

who have no graves and died in battles

in the First World War are carved in

stone There were thousands if not

millions of names chiselled on stone

~ plaques on the gate which is itsel f

was back to the van to visit

called Hill 60 which was a key

location in the battles as the side who ~~fP occupied it had a clear

years

a massive crater where allied tunnelling

companies had dug under the nill and laia twenty tonnes or explosives which

literally blew orf the top of the hill

We were taken to a museum at Hill 62 where there was part of the origi nal

trench network on exhibition We were

told that it gave a reasonably accurate

impression of what life was like in the

trenches It must have been terrible

Part of the trench was submerged in

water and there was slippery mud

everywhere

Original uniform supplies and weapons

were on display in Hill 62 museum and

also some genuine gory photographs

that made us realise the destruction of

life and buildinS that war brings After a short minibus ride we were back in the centre or YpresWe took a quick

look around the cloth museum answered

our question sheets on the Great War and

stole a last wander around the town to

rind some native rood( chipsJAll too soon it was time to go home after a

tiring but very profitable daytrip

PRACTICAL FIRST AID LECTURES WITH

THE BRITISH RED CROSS

We were taught First Aid by Paul

Tiffin of the British Red CrossHe

visited Uffi in our Life Skills lessons

At first we were embarrassed doing

bandaging and mouth to mouth reshy

suscitation but soon we became more

confident and started to enjoy it

An officer from the British Red

Cros s carne to the school to examine us

for our certificate We were all very

nervous

We think that everyone should

have the first aid training because

accidents happen all the time

DESIGN amp LAYOUT BY THE SC HOOL

Page 5: The Raineian 1987

Many people feel that when Rainampls finally became fully comprehensive it would

lose a lot of the popularity and charisma that it had when it was a grammar school

No longer they said would there be more applications for entry than there were

places available In fact during the last two years of Mr Thomass seven year

Headship there were over six hundred applications for the three hundred places

available in the First Year So much for the doubters And all credit to the

Head

We wish him well in the calmer waters of Enfield

J Everton

A WARM WELCOME

Mr Lewis arrived at Raines in September

to take on the responsibilities and challenges

which the headship of a large urban school

always brings Having spent the last ten

years as deputy headmaster of Langham School

he will be no stranger to either responsibility

or challenge and as the school year at

Raines begins in its usual hectic fashion

I am sure he will find both his experience

and his energy most useful qualities

Prior to his post at Langham Mr Lewis

taught at Grey Coat Hospital Westminster

where he spent a happy seven years

Mr LeWis welcome to Raines We hope

your time with us is happy and successfulshy

unfortunately we cant promise not to

work you too hard

editorial This year sees the launch of a new look Raineian MagazineThe purpose of

this policy change is to give the magazine a more accessible look and feel that

it is hoped will make the pupils of the school (Who are after all the main

receivers of the Raineian) want to read it and to contribute to itAt the same time

we still want to reflect the raany varied facets of school life and so we have tried

to as usual include many reports on the various activities that have taken

place this year

The magazine has been produced with the kind co-operation and help 01 many

people and I would like to take this opportunity to thank them for their efforts

Mrs Howard Mrs Freaar Mrs Kirk and Mrs Shrimpton for typing it

Mr Johnson for invaluable help in pasting it up

Plaistow Press for printing it

Mr Blundell for poviding Art work

Dr CIOCI

Last term the school sadly said goodbye

to Dr Alfredo Cioci Head of Physics

at the school for seventeen yearsDr

Cioci was born in Florence in ItalyI

one of the worlds great cities

He lived and worked in various

countries of Europe before coming to

Britain twenty years agoHe liked it

here so much that he bought a house and

entered the teaching professionlt was

our good fortune that he accepted a job

at RainesMany generations of Physics

students can testify to the skill and

success of his teaching Dr Cioci has

a total commitment to Physics and few

teachers can match his grasp of the

subject

He will be missed but not forgotten

We wish him and his wife a very happy

retirement

BIRD AND GARDENING CLUB

Starting a Bird and Gardening Club in the middle of Bethnal Green didnt

seem like a very good idea at first but once we got a started and people saw that

it involved digging holes in the school grounds grovelling in mud and tipping

water everywhere everyone wanted to join in - and that was just the staff

Since spring the gardeners have replanted the old flower bed outside the

staff room window grown plants from seeds for inside the classrooms planted two

Whitebeam trees and trained three ivy plants to climb up the bike shed wall shy

well at least it makes achange from the second years

As for the bird club there have been many trips to Victoria Park to observe

the water birds on the lake - mallards tufted duckscanada geese coots pochards

etc - and two trips out one to the Walthamstow heronry and one to the Blackwater

estuary

At Walthamstow we saw many heronsgliding in to land on the islands in the

middle of the reservoirsJane McCarthy spotted a heron on the day we went to the

Blackwater too and Soleman Hussein pointed out a pair of cormorants pounding

a pathway across the skyMs Smith thought she had spotted a very unusual wading

bird on the shoreline but after a second glance she realised it was only

Leigh Hicks up to her knees in water looking for shells We did see a curlew

and an oyster catcher though as well as a great black backed and several blackshy

headed gulls

In spite of the appalling weather and everything else ( ) it was a great

day out Many many thanks to Mr Jones and Mr Philpotts for being such good

drivers and for of humour throughout

TALES FOR APRINCE THE DAPPLED ROCKING HORSE

There once lived a little girl whose name was JillHer mum and dad were poor but they always gave their child as many

toys as they could afford Now one day when Jill went shopping with her parents and

the house was as qUiet as amouse all of Jills toys started

talking and in the middle of the conversation a deep voice grumbled I need a new coat of paint

It was the rocking horse and yes he did need a new I

coat Why dont you go and ask someone to paint you suggested

the teddy bear And the rocking horse agreed

So the rocking horse set down from his rockers and set off

to look for a person to paint his coat

Soon he came across a group of frogs Excuse me could I

you possibly paint me a new coat of paint he asked Certainly said the frogs So the frogs got their paint I

and their brushes and went to work

Marvellous murmered the rocking horseHed look I

I

lovely with his new coat Very soon they were finished l

But oh dear He was an awful green colour So as soon as the frogs had gone the horse started rolling in the grass

trying to get as much paint off as he could But very soon he just lay still crying because he looked even worse than J

ever 10

Soon a little crowd of mice came by and asked him what was wrongWhen the rocking horse told the mice they took pity on him and said Never mind we will give you a beautiful spotted coat of new paint but you must stand still because we will have to lean ladders against you to reach

So the mice painted a beautiful dappled coat just as they had promised and although their tiny little brushes tickled

the rocking horsf he never moved an ear He thanked them again and looked very pleased for now he

would look nice for Jill So if you know a little girl with a dappled rocking horse

~ou never know it might be Jill Katrina Randell 2J

SWIMMING The rippling clear water Calming my tense nerves

As I lower my body

Then a final gulp-water rushing past me and

I come up for air Throwing my arms behind me To clutch what is not there

Afrantic kick I gain a little lead

Water in my mouth

The pace now slowing down

Only we know the pain ahead aching limbs gasps for air Awhirl-pool pulling at our legs I swallow wat8r but before me

The end In a final kick I rake the water Its good to feel something solid

My pounding heart

RUNNING Must keep going

To reach my destination Something pushing me

An inward fascination

Step by step

Mouth open Breath panting

Rain fall ing

Wi nd whi st ling Feet pounding Getting slower Flag ahead

Confidence growing Lorger steps Growing faster -shyTwo more steps - shyOne and finished

Across the lineshyMission accomplished

MATHS CLASSES ROYAL INSTITUTION OF MATHMATICS MASTERCLASSES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE

After the success of Professor Zeeman s televised lectures on mathnJatics

Christmas 1978 the Royal Institute organised a series of ten Saturday morning

classes to stimulate and encourage children in the art and practice of

mathmatics Third Year pupils who are mathmatically able and judged to have

potential and interest were selected The classes were held at the City of London

Polytechnic

Last year our school was represented by Nicole Russell Thomas Bentley and

Stephen Parkinson who all gave up ten Saturdays to rub shoulders with mathmatics

professors teachers and other matbmatically minded pupils They were so

bitten by the bug and created such a good impression on the organizers that

they were invited back to participate in Advanced Maths Masterclasses over the

summer holidays Following their success five pupils will be attending the

masterclasses this year It is hoped that Garoline Hughes Karina Cox Micky Kullar

Mark Killminster and Peter Lyle will enjoy the sessions as much as last years

group did

FOtamprth YbV Trif to VrlCS was Sam on the fifth of May when left school by minibus to catch the

Bam ferry to Calais It was very cold

windy on the boat so most of us

wandered around inside looking in

_and buying breakfast

~

At about 10am we arrived to be greeted

a sunny CalaiS and we started our journey through France to Ypres in Belgium On the way we saw several P l ll

Boxes and other structures left over

from the second world War On arrival in Ypres we went for a ten minute walk through the town After this

we were taken to the Menin Gate The

is one of the buildings that Ypres is most famous for as it is

names of all the soldiers

who have no graves and died in battles

in the First World War are carved in

stone There were thousands if not

millions of names chiselled on stone

~ plaques on the gate which is itsel f

was back to the van to visit

called Hill 60 which was a key

location in the battles as the side who ~~fP occupied it had a clear

a massive crater where allied tunnelling

companies had dug under the nill and laia twenty tonnes or explosives which

literally blew orf the top of the hill

We were taken to a museum at Hill 62 where there was part of the origi nal

trench network on exhibition We were

told that it gave a reasonably accurate

impression of what life was like in the

trenches It must have been terrible

Part of the trench was submerged in

water and there was slippery mud

everywhere

Original uniform supplies and weapons

were on display in Hill 62 museum and

also some genuine gory photographs

that made us realise the destruction of

life and buildinS that war brings After a short minibus ride we were back in the centre or YpresWe took a quick

look around the cloth museum answered

our question sheets on the Great War and

stole a last wander around the town to

rind some native rood( chipsJAll too soon it was time to go home after a

tiring but very profitable daytrip

PRACTICAL FIRST AID LECTURES WITH

THE BRITISH RED CROSS

We were taught First Aid by Paul

Tiffin of the British Red CrossHe

visited Uffi in our Life Skills lessons

At first we were embarrassed doing

bandaging and mouth to mouth reshy

suscitation but soon we became more

confident and started to enjoy it

An officer from the British Red

Cros s carne to the school to examine us

for our certificate We were all very

nervous

We think that everyone should

have the first aid training because

accidents happen all the time

editorial This year sees the launch of a new look Raineian MagazineThe purpose of

this policy change is to give the magazine a more accessible look and feel that

it is hoped will make the pupils of the school (Who are after all the main

receivers of the Raineian) want to read it and to contribute to itAt the same time

we still want to reflect the raany varied facets of school life and so we have tried

to as usual include many reports on the various activities that have taken

place this year

The magazine has been produced with the kind co-operation and help 01 many

people and I would like to take this opportunity to thank them for their efforts

Mrs Howard Mrs Freaar Mrs Kirk and Mrs Shrimpton for typing it

Mr Johnson for invaluable help in pasting it up

Plaistow Press for printing it

Mr Blundell for poviding Art work

Dr CIOCI

Last term the school sadly said goodbye

to Dr Alfredo Cioci Head of Physics

at the school for seventeen yearsDr

Cioci was born in Florence in ItalyI

one of the worlds great cities

He lived and worked in various

countries of Europe before coming to

Britain twenty years agoHe liked it

here so much that he bought a house and

entered the teaching professionlt was

our good fortune that he accepted a job

at RainesMany generations of Physics

students can testify to the skill and

success of his teaching Dr Cioci has

a total commitment to Physics and few

teachers can match his grasp of the

subject

He will be missed but not forgotten

We wish him and his wife a very happy

retirement

BIRD AND GARDENING CLUB

Starting a Bird and Gardening Club in the middle of Bethnal Green didnt

seem like a very good idea at first but once we got a started and people saw that

it involved digging holes in the school grounds grovelling in mud and tipping

water everywhere everyone wanted to join in - and that was just the staff

Since spring the gardeners have replanted the old flower bed outside the

staff room window grown plants from seeds for inside the classrooms planted two

Whitebeam trees and trained three ivy plants to climb up the bike shed wall shy

well at least it makes achange from the second years

As for the bird club there have been many trips to Victoria Park to observe

the water birds on the lake - mallards tufted duckscanada geese coots pochards

etc - and two trips out one to the Walthamstow heronry and one to the Blackwater

estuary

At Walthamstow we saw many heronsgliding in to land on the islands in the

middle of the reservoirsJane McCarthy spotted a heron on the day we went to the

Blackwater too and Soleman Hussein pointed out a pair of cormorants pounding

a pathway across the skyMs Smith thought she had spotted a very unusual wading

bird on the shoreline but after a second glance she realised it was only

Leigh Hicks up to her knees in water looking for shells We did see a curlew

and an oyster catcher though as well as a great black backed and several blackshy

headed gulls

In spite of the appalling weather and everything else ( ) it was a great

day out Many many thanks to Mr Jones and Mr Philpotts for being such good

drivers and for of humour throughout

TALES FOR APRINCE THE DAPPLED ROCKING HORSE

There once lived a little girl whose name was JillHer mum and dad were poor but they always gave their child as many

toys as they could afford Now one day when Jill went shopping with her parents and

the house was as qUiet as amouse all of Jills toys started

talking and in the middle of the conversation a deep voice grumbled I need a new coat of paint

It was the rocking horse and yes he did need a new I

coat Why dont you go and ask someone to paint you suggested

the teddy bear And the rocking horse agreed

So the rocking horse set down from his rockers and set off

to look for a person to paint his coat

Soon he came across a group of frogs Excuse me could I

you possibly paint me a new coat of paint he asked Certainly said the frogs So the frogs got their paint I

and their brushes and went to work

Marvellous murmered the rocking horseHed look I

I

lovely with his new coat Very soon they were finished l

But oh dear He was an awful green colour So as soon as the frogs had gone the horse started rolling in the grass

trying to get as much paint off as he could But very soon he just lay still crying because he looked even worse than J

ever 10

~~------_______ ~------______ ~--__ -------______ ~~~---___ ----------__________ ------_______ --_-v ~- _=__=~~CJ

Soon a little crowd of mice came by and asked him what was wrongWhen the rocking horse told the mice they took pity on him and said Never mind we will give you a beautiful spotted coat of new paint but you must stand still because we will have to lean ladders against you to reach

So the mice painted a beautiful dappled coat just as they had promised and although their tiny little brushes tickled

the rocking horsf he never moved an ear He thanked them again and looked very pleased for now he

would look nice for Jill So if you know a little girl with a dappled rocking horse

~ou never know it might be Jill Katrina Randell 2J

SWIMMING The rippling clear water Calming my tense nerves

As I lower my body

Then a final gulp-water rushing past me and

I come up for air Throwing my arms behind me To clutch what is not there

Afrantic kick I gain a little lead

Water in my mouth

The pace now slowing down

Only we know the pain ahead aching limbs gasps for air Awhirl-pool pulling at our legs I swallow wat8r but before me

The end In a final kick I rake the water Its good to feel something solid

My pounding heart

RUNNING Must keep going

To reach my destination Something pushing me

An inward fascination

Step by step

Mouth open Breath panting

Rain fall ing

Wi nd whi st ling Feet pounding Getting slower Flag ahead

Confidence growing Lorger steps Growing faster -shyTwo more steps - shyOne and finished

Across the lineshyMission accomplished

After a very slow start the lower school council has managed this year

to organize itself much better thanks to the form representatives and the form

teachers who have been enthusiastic in giving their time

We meet every week and have managed to organize an agenda for the year

sure your form rep Mrs NaYQr or Mr Phillips will gladly help

Why not come along to one of our meetingsjYou may have something useful to add

MATHS CLASSES ROYAL INSTITUTION OF MATHMATICS MASTERCLASSES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE

After the success of Professor Zeeman s televised lectures on mathnJatics

Christmas 1978 the Royal Institute organised a series of ten Saturday morning

classes to stimulate and encourage children in the art and practice of

mathmatics Third Year pupils who are mathmatically able and judged to have

potential and interest were selected The classes were held at the City of London

Polytechnic

Last year our school was represented by Nicole Russell Thomas Bentley and

Stephen Parkinson who all gave up ten Saturdays to rub shoulders with mathmatics

professors teachers and other matbmatically minded pupils They were so

bitten by the bug and created such a good impression on the organizers that

they were invited back to participate in Advanced Maths Masterclasses over the

summer holidays Following their success five pupils will be attending the

masterclasses this year It is hoped that Garoline Hughes Karina Cox Micky Kullar

Mark Killminster and Peter Lyle will enjoy the sessions as much as last years

group did

FOtamprth YbV Trif to VrlCS was Sam on the fifth of May when left school by minibus to catch the

Bam ferry to Calais It was very cold

windy on the boat so most of us

wandered around inside looking in

_and buying breakfast

~

At about 10am we arrived to be greeted

a sunny CalaiS and we started our journey through France to Ypres in Belgium On the way we saw several P l ll

Boxes and other structures left over

from the second world War On arrival in Ypres we went for a ten minute walk through the town After this

we were taken to the Menin Gate The

is one of the buildings that Ypres is most famous for as it is

names of all the soldiers

who have no graves and died in battles

in the First World War are carved in

stone There were thousands if not

millions of names chiselled on stone

~ plaques on the gate which is itsel f

was back to the van to visit

called Hill 60 which was a key

location in the battles as the side who ~~fP occupied it had a clear

a massive crater where allied tunnelling

companies had dug under the nill and laia twenty tonnes or explosives which

literally blew orf the top of the hill

We were taken to a museum at Hill 62 where there was part of the origi nal

trench network on exhibition We were

told that it gave a reasonably accurate

impression of what life was like in the

trenches It must have been terrible

Part of the trench was submerged in

water and there was slippery mud

everywhere

Original uniform supplies and weapons

were on display in Hill 62 museum and

also some genuine gory photographs

that made us realise the destruction of

life and buildinS that war brings After a short minibus ride we were back in the centre or YpresWe took a quick

look around the cloth museum answered

our question sheets on the Great War and

stole a last wander around the town to

rind some native rood( chipsJAll too soon it was time to go home after a

tiring but very profitable daytrip

PRACTICAL FIRST AID LECTURES WITH

THE BRITISH RED CROSS

We were taught First Aid by Paul

Tiffin of the British Red CrossHe

visited Uffi in our Life Skills lessons

At first we were embarrassed doing

bandaging and mouth to mouth reshy

suscitation but soon we became more

confident and started to enjoy it

An officer from the British Red

Cros s carne to the school to examine us

for our certificate We were all very

nervous

We think that everyone should

have the first aid training because

accidents happen all the time

Dr CIOCI

Last term the school sadly said goodbye

to Dr Alfredo Cioci Head of Physics

at the school for seventeen yearsDr

Cioci was born in Florence in ItalyI

one of the worlds great cities

He lived and worked in various

countries of Europe before coming to

Britain twenty years agoHe liked it

here so much that he bought a house and

entered the teaching professionlt was

our good fortune that he accepted a job

at RainesMany generations of Physics

students can testify to the skill and

success of his teaching Dr Cioci has

a total commitment to Physics and few

teachers can match his grasp of the

subject

He will be missed but not forgotten

We wish him and his wife a very happy

retirement

BIRD AND GARDENING CLUB

Starting a Bird and Gardening Club in the middle of Bethnal Green didnt

seem like a very good idea at first but once we got a started and people saw that

it involved digging holes in the school grounds grovelling in mud and tipping

water everywhere everyone wanted to join in - and that was just the staff

Since spring the gardeners have replanted the old flower bed outside the

staff room window grown plants from seeds for inside the classrooms planted two

Whitebeam trees and trained three ivy plants to climb up the bike shed wall shy

well at least it makes achange from the second years

As for the bird club there have been many trips to Victoria Park to observe

the water birds on the lake - mallards tufted duckscanada geese coots pochards

etc - and two trips out one to the Walthamstow heronry and one to the Blackwater

estuary

At Walthamstow we saw many heronsgliding in to land on the islands in the

middle of the reservoirsJane McCarthy spotted a heron on the day we went to the

Blackwater too and Soleman Hussein pointed out a pair of cormorants pounding

a pathway across the skyMs Smith thought she had spotted a very unusual wading

bird on the shoreline but after a second glance she realised it was only

Leigh Hicks up to her knees in water looking for shells We did see a curlew

and an oyster catcher though as well as a great black backed and several blackshy

headed gulls

In spite of the appalling weather and everything else ( ) it was a great

day out Many many thanks to Mr Jones and Mr Philpotts for being such good

drivers and for of humour throughout

TALES FOR APRINCE THE DAPPLED ROCKING HORSE

There once lived a little girl whose name was JillHer mum and dad were poor but they always gave their child as many

toys as they could afford Now one day when Jill went shopping with her parents and

the house was as qUiet as amouse all of Jills toys started

talking and in the middle of the conversation a deep voice grumbled I need a new coat of paint

It was the rocking horse and yes he did need a new I

coat Why dont you go and ask someone to paint you suggested

the teddy bear And the rocking horse agreed

So the rocking horse set down from his rockers and set off

to look for a person to paint his coat

Soon he came across a group of frogs Excuse me could I

you possibly paint me a new coat of paint he asked Certainly said the frogs So the frogs got their paint I

and their brushes and went to work

Marvellous murmered the rocking horseHed look I

I

lovely with his new coat Very soon they were finished l

But oh dear He was an awful green colour So as soon as the frogs had gone the horse started rolling in the grass

trying to get as much paint off as he could But very soon he just lay still crying because he looked even worse than J

ever 10

~~------_______ ~------______ ~--__ -------______ ~~~---___ ----------__________ ------_______ --_-v ~- _=__=~~CJ

i

Soon a little crowd of mice came by and asked him what was wrongWhen the rocking horse told the mice they took pity on him and said Never mind we will give you a beautiful spotted coat of new paint but you must stand still because we will have to lean ladders against you to reach

So the mice painted a beautiful dappled coat just as they had promised and although their tiny little brushes tickled

the rocking horsf he never moved an ear He thanked them again and looked very pleased for now he

would look nice for Jill So if you know a little girl with a dappled rocking horse

~ou never know it might be Jill Katrina Randell 2J

SWIMMING The rippling clear water Calming my tense nerves

As I lower my body

Then a final gulp-water rushing past me and

I come up for air Throwing my arms behind me To clutch what is not there

Afrantic kick I gain a little lead

Water in my mouth

The pace now slowing down

Only we know the pain ahead aching limbs gasps for air Awhirl-pool pulling at our legs I swallow wat8r but before me

The end In a final kick I rake the water Its good to feel something solid

My pounding heart

RUNNING Must keep going

To reach my destination Something pushing me

An inward fascination

Step by step

Mouth open Breath panting

Rain fall ing

Wi nd whi st ling Feet pounding Getting slower Flag ahead

Confidence growing Lorger steps Growing faster -shyTwo more steps - shyOne and finished

Across the lineshyMission accomplished

After a very slow start the lower school council has managed this year

to organize itself much better thanks to the form representatives and the form

teachers who have been enthusiastic in giving their time

We meet every week and have managed to organize an agenda for the year

sure your form rep Mrs NaYQr or Mr Phillips will gladly help

MATHS CLASSES ROYAL INSTITUTION OF MATHMATICS MASTERCLASSES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE

After the success of Professor Zeeman s televised lectures on mathnJatics

Christmas 1978 the Royal Institute organised a series of ten Saturday morning

classes to stimulate and encourage children in the art and practice of

mathmatics Third Year pupils who are mathmatically able and judged to have

potential and interest were selected The classes were held at the City of London

Polytechnic

Last year our school was represented by Nicole Russell Thomas Bentley and

Stephen Parkinson who all gave up ten Saturdays to rub shoulders with mathmatics

professors teachers and other matbmatically minded pupils They were so

bitten by the bug and created such a good impression on the organizers that

they were invited back to participate in Advanced Maths Masterclasses over the

summer holidays Following their success five pupils will be attending the

masterclasses this year It is hoped that Garoline Hughes Karina Cox Micky Kullar

Mark Killminster and Peter Lyle will enjoy the sessions as much as last years

group did

FOtamprth YbV Trif to VrlCS was Sam on the fifth of May when left school by minibus to catch the

Bam ferry to Calais It was very cold

windy on the boat so most of us

wandered around inside looking in

_and buying breakfast

~

At about 10am we arrived to be greeted

a sunny CalaiS and we started our journey through France to Ypres in Belgium On the way we saw several P l ll

Boxes and other structures left over

from the second world War On arrival in Ypres we went for a ten minute walk through the town After this

we were taken to the Menin Gate The

is one of the buildings that Ypres is most famous for as it is

names of all the soldiers

who have no graves and died in battles

in the First World War are carved in

stone There were thousands if not

millions of names chiselled on stone

~ plaques on the gate which is itsel f

was back to the van to visit

called Hill 60 which was a key

location in the battles as the side who ~~fP occupied it had a clear

years

a massive crater where allied tunnelling

companies had dug under the nill and laia twenty tonnes or explosives which

literally blew orf the top of the hill

We were taken to a museum at Hill 62 where there was part of the origi nal

trench network on exhibition We were

told that it gave a reasonably accurate

impression of what life was like in the

trenches It must have been terrible

Part of the trench was submerged in

water and there was slippery mud

everywhere

Original uniform supplies and weapons

were on display in Hill 62 museum and

also some genuine gory photographs

that made us realise the destruction of

life and buildinS that war brings After a short minibus ride we were back in the centre or YpresWe took a quick

look around the cloth museum answered

our question sheets on the Great War and

stole a last wander around the town to

rind some native rood( chipsJAll too soon it was time to go home after a

tiring but very profitable daytrip

PRACTICAL FIRST AID LECTURES WITH

THE BRITISH RED CROSS

We were taught First Aid by Paul

Tiffin of the British Red CrossHe

visited Uffi in our Life Skills lessons

At first we were embarrassed doing

bandaging and mouth to mouth reshy

suscitation but soon we became more

confident and started to enjoy it

An officer from the British Red

Cros s carne to the school to examine us

for our certificate We were all very

nervous

We think that everyone should

have the first aid training because

accidents happen all the time

Dr CIOCI

Last term the school sadly said goodbye

to Dr Alfredo Cioci Head of Physics

at the school for seventeen yearsDr

Cioci was born in Florence in ItalyI

one of the worlds great cities

He lived and worked in various

countries of Europe before coming to

Britain twenty years agoHe liked it

here so much that he bought a house and

entered the teaching professionlt was

our good fortune that he accepted a job

at RainesMany generations of Physics

students can testify to the skill and

success of his teaching Dr Cioci has

a total commitment to Physics and few

teachers can match his grasp of the

subject

He will be missed but not forgotten

We wish him and his wife a very happy

retirement

BIRD AND GARDENING CLUB

Starting a Bird and Gardening Club in the middle of Bethnal Green didnt

seem like a very good idea at first but once we got a started and people saw that

it involved digging holes in the school grounds grovelling in mud and tipping

water everywhere everyone wanted to join in - and that was just the staff

Since spring the gardeners have replanted the old flower bed outside the

staff room window grown plants from seeds for inside the classrooms planted two

Whitebeam trees and trained three ivy plants to climb up the bike shed wall shy

well at least it makes achange from the second years

As for the bird club there have been many trips to Victoria Park to observe

the water birds on the lake - mallards tufted duckscanada geese coots pochards

etc - and two trips out one to the Walthamstow heronry and one to the Blackwater

estuary

At Walthamstow we saw many heronsgliding in to land on the islands in the

middle of the reservoirsJane McCarthy spotted a heron on the day we went to the

Blackwater too and Soleman Hussein pointed out a pair of cormorants pounding

a pathway across the skyMs Smith thought she had spotted a very unusual wading

bird on the shoreline but after a second glance she realised it was only

Leigh Hicks up to her knees in water looking for shells We did see a curlew

and an oyster catcher though as well as a great black backed and several blackshy

headed gulls

In spite of the appalling weather and everything else ( ) it was a great

day out Many many thanks to Mr Jones and Mr Philpotts for being such good

drivers and for of humour throughout

TALES FOR APRINCE THE DAPPLED ROCKING HORSE

There once lived a little girl whose name was JillHer mum and dad were poor but they always gave their child as many

toys as they could afford Now one day when Jill went shopping with her parents and

the house was as qUiet as amouse all of Jills toys started

talking and in the middle of the conversation a deep voice grumbled I need a new coat of paint

It was the rocking horse and yes he did need a new I

coat Why dont you go and ask someone to paint you suggested

the teddy bear And the rocking horse agreed

So the rocking horse set down from his rockers and set off

to look for a person to paint his coat

Soon he came across a group of frogs Excuse me could I

you possibly paint me a new coat of paint he asked Certainly said the frogs So the frogs got their paint I

and their brushes and went to work

Marvellous murmered the rocking horseHed look I

I

lovely with his new coat Very soon they were finished l

But oh dear He was an awful green colour So as soon as the frogs had gone the horse started rolling in the grass

trying to get as much paint off as he could But very soon he just lay still crying because he looked even worse than J

ever 10

~~------_______ ~------______ ~--__ -------______ ~~~---___ ----------__________ ------_______ --_-v ~- _=__=~~CJ

i

Soon a little crowd of mice came by and asked him what was wrongWhen the rocking horse told the mice they took pity on him and said Never mind we will give you a beautiful spotted coat of new paint but you must stand still because we will have to lean ladders against you to reach

So the mice painted a beautiful dappled coat just as they had promised and although their tiny little brushes tickled

the rocking horsf he never moved an ear He thanked them again and looked very pleased for now he

would look nice for Jill So if you know a little girl with a dappled rocking horse

~ou never know it might be Jill Katrina Randell 2J

As I lower my body

Then a final gulp-water rushing past me and

I come up for air Throwing my arms behind me To clutch what is not there

Afrantic kick I gain a little lead

Water in my mouth

The pace now slowing down

Only we know the pain ahead aching limbs gasps for air Awhirl-pool pulling at our legs I swallow wat8r but before me

The end In a final kick I rake the water Its good to feel something solid

My pounding heart

RUNNING Must keep going

To reach my destination Something pushing me

An inward fascination

Step by step

Mouth open Breath panting

Rain fall ing

Confidence growing Lorger steps Growing faster -shyTwo more steps - shyOne and finished

After a very slow start the lower school council has managed this year

to organize itself much better thanks to the form representatives and the form

teachers who have been enthusiastic in giving their time

We meet every week and have managed to organize an agenda for the year

sure your form rep Mrs NaYQr or Mr Phillips will gladly help

MATHS CLASSES ROYAL INSTITUTION OF MATHMATICS MASTERCLASSES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE

After the success of Professor Zeeman s televised lectures on mathnJatics

Christmas 1978 the Royal Institute organised a series of ten Saturday morning

classes to stimulate and encourage children in the art and practice of

mathmatics Third Year pupils who are mathmatically able and judged to have

potential and interest were selected The classes were held at the City of London

Polytechnic

Last year our school was represented by Nicole Russell Thomas Bentley and

Stephen Parkinson who all gave up ten Saturdays to rub shoulders with mathmatics

professors teachers and other matbmatically minded pupils They were so

bitten by the bug and created such a good impression on the organizers that

they were invited back to participate in Advanced Maths Masterclasses over the

summer holidays Following their success five pupils will be attending the

masterclasses this year It is hoped that Garoline Hughes Karina Cox Micky Kullar

Mark Killminster and Peter Lyle will enjoy the sessions as much as last years

group did

FOtamprth YbV Trif to VrlCS was Sam on the fifth of May when left school by minibus to catch the

Bam ferry to Calais It was very cold

windy on the boat so most of us

wandered around inside looking in

_and buying breakfast

~

At about 10am we arrived to be greeted

a sunny CalaiS and we started our journey through France to Ypres in Belgium On the way we saw several P l ll

Boxes and other structures left over

from the second world War On arrival in Ypres we went for a ten minute walk through the town After this

we were taken to the Menin Gate The

is one of the buildings that Ypres is most famous for as it is

names of all the soldiers

who have no graves and died in battles

in the First World War are carved in

stone There were thousands if not

millions of names chiselled on stone

~ plaques on the gate which is itsel f

was back to the van to visit

called Hill 60 which was a key

location in the battles as the side who ~~fP occupied it had a clear

years

a massive crater where allied tunnelling

companies had dug under the nill and laia twenty tonnes or explosives which

literally blew orf the top of the hill

We were taken to a museum at Hill 62 where there was part of the origi nal

trench network on exhibition We were

told that it gave a reasonably accurate

impression of what life was like in the

trenches It must have been terrible

Part of the trench was submerged in

water and there was slippery mud

everywhere

Original uniform supplies and weapons

were on display in Hill 62 museum and

also some genuine gory photographs

that made us realise the destruction of

life and buildinS that war brings After a short minibus ride we were back in the centre or YpresWe took a quick

look around the cloth museum answered

our question sheets on the Great War and

stole a last wander around the town to

rind some native rood( chipsJAll too soon it was time to go home after a

tiring but very profitable daytrip

PRACTICAL FIRST AID LECTURES WITH

THE BRITISH RED CROSS

We were taught First Aid by Paul

Tiffin of the British Red CrossHe

visited Uffi in our Life Skills lessons

At first we were embarrassed doing

bandaging and mouth to mouth reshy

suscitation but soon we became more

confident and started to enjoy it

An officer from the British Red

Cros s carne to the school to examine us

for our certificate We were all very

nervous

We think that everyone should

have the first aid training because

accidents happen all the time

BIRD AND GARDENING CLUB

Starting a Bird and Gardening Club in the middle of Bethnal Green didnt

seem like a very good idea at first but once we got a started and people saw that

it involved digging holes in the school grounds grovelling in mud and tipping

water everywhere everyone wanted to join in - and that was just the staff

Since spring the gardeners have replanted the old flower bed outside the

staff room window grown plants from seeds for inside the classrooms planted two

Whitebeam trees and trained three ivy plants to climb up the bike shed wall shy

well at least it makes achange from the second years

As for the bird club there have been many trips to Victoria Park to observe

the water birds on the lake - mallards tufted duckscanada geese coots pochards

etc - and two trips out one to the Walthamstow heronry and one to the Blackwater

estuary

At Walthamstow we saw many heronsgliding in to land on the islands in the

middle of the reservoirsJane McCarthy spotted a heron on the day we went to the

Blackwater too and Soleman Hussein pointed out a pair of cormorants pounding

a pathway across the skyMs Smith thought she had spotted a very unusual wading

bird on the shoreline but after a second glance she realised it was only

Leigh Hicks up to her knees in water looking for shells We did see a curlew

and an oyster catcher though as well as a great black backed and several blackshy

headed gulls

In spite of the appalling weather and everything else ( ) it was a great

day out Many many thanks to Mr Jones and Mr Philpotts for being such good

drivers and for of humour throughout

TALES FOR APRINCE THE DAPPLED ROCKING HORSE

There once lived a little girl whose name was JillHer mum and dad were poor but they always gave their child as many

toys as they could afford Now one day when Jill went shopping with her parents and

the house was as qUiet as amouse all of Jills toys started

talking and in the middle of the conversation a deep voice grumbled I need a new coat of paint

It was the rocking horse and yes he did need a new I

coat Why dont you go and ask someone to paint you suggested

the teddy bear And the rocking horse agreed

So the rocking horse set down from his rockers and set off

to look for a person to paint his coat

Soon he came across a group of frogs Excuse me could I

you possibly paint me a new coat of paint he asked Certainly said the frogs So the frogs got their paint I

and their brushes and went to work

Marvellous murmered the rocking horseHed look I

I

lovely with his new coat Very soon they were finished l

But oh dear He was an awful green colour So as soon as the frogs had gone the horse started rolling in the grass

trying to get as much paint off as he could But very soon he just lay still crying because he looked even worse than J

ever 10

Soon a little crowd of mice came by and asked him what was wrongWhen the rocking horse told the mice they took pity on him and said Never mind we will give you a beautiful spotted coat of new paint but you must stand still because we will have to lean ladders against you to reach

So the mice painted a beautiful dappled coat just as they had promised and although their tiny little brushes tickled

the rocking horsf he never moved an ear He thanked them again and looked very pleased for now he

would look nice for Jill So if you know a little girl with a dappled rocking horse

~ou never know it might be Jill Katrina Randell 2J

As I lower my body

Then a final gulp-water rushing past me and

I come up for air Throwing my arms behind me To clutch what is not there

Afrantic kick I gain a little lead

Water in my mouth

The pace now slowing down

Only we know the pain ahead aching limbs gasps for air Awhirl-pool pulling at our legs I swallow wat8r but before me

The end In a final kick I rake the water Its good to feel something solid

My pounding heart

RUNNING Must keep going

To reach my destination Something pushing me

An inward fascination

Step by step

Mouth open Breath panting

Rain fall ing

Confidence growing Lorger steps Growing faster -shyTwo more steps - shyOne and finished

MATHS CLASSES ROYAL INSTITUTION OF MATHMATICS MASTERCLASSES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE

After the success of Professor Zeeman s televised lectures on mathnJatics

Christmas 1978 the Royal Institute organised a series of ten Saturday morning

classes to stimulate and encourage children in the art and practice of

mathmatics Third Year pupils who are mathmatically able and judged to have

potential and interest were selected The classes were held at the City of London

Polytechnic

Last year our school was represented by Nicole Russell Thomas Bentley and

Stephen Parkinson who all gave up ten Saturdays to rub shoulders with mathmatics

professors teachers and other matbmatically minded pupils They were so

bitten by the bug and created such a good impression on the organizers that

they were invited back to participate in Advanced Maths Masterclasses over the

summer holidays Following their success five pupils will be attending the

masterclasses this year It is hoped that Garoline Hughes Karina Cox Micky Kullar

Mark Killminster and Peter Lyle will enjoy the sessions as much as last years

group did

FOtamprth YbV Trif to VrlCS was Sam on the fifth of May when left school by minibus to catch the

Bam ferry to Calais It was very cold

windy on the boat so most of us

wandered around inside looking in

_and buying breakfast

~

At about 10am we arrived to be greeted

a sunny CalaiS and we started our journey through France to Ypres in Belgium On the way we saw several P l ll

Boxes and other structures left over

from the second world War On arrival in Ypres we went for a ten minute walk through the town After this

we were taken to the Menin Gate The

is one of the buildings that Ypres is most famous for as it is

names of all the soldiers

who have no graves and died in battles

in the First World War are carved in

stone There were thousands if not

millions of names chiselled on stone

~ plaques on the gate which is itsel f

was back to the van to visit

called Hill 60 which was a key

location in the battles as the side who ~~fP occupied it had a clear

years

a massive crater where allied tunnelling

companies had dug under the nill and laia twenty tonnes or explosives which

literally blew orf the top of the hill

We were taken to a museum at Hill 62 where there was part of the origi nal

trench network on exhibition We were

told that it gave a reasonably accurate

impression of what life was like in the

trenches It must have been terrible

Part of the trench was submerged in

water and there was slippery mud

everywhere

Original uniform supplies and weapons

were on display in Hill 62 museum and

also some genuine gory photographs

that made us realise the destruction of

life and buildinS that war brings After a short minibus ride we were back in the centre or YpresWe took a quick

look around the cloth museum answered

our question sheets on the Great War and

stole a last wander around the town to

rind some native rood( chipsJAll too soon it was time to go home after a

tiring but very profitable daytrip

PRACTICAL FIRST AID LECTURES WITH

THE BRITISH RED CROSS

We were taught First Aid by Paul

Tiffin of the British Red CrossHe

visited Uffi in our Life Skills lessons

At first we were embarrassed doing

bandaging and mouth to mouth reshy

suscitation but soon we became more

confident and started to enjoy it

An officer from the British Red

Cros s carne to the school to examine us

for our certificate We were all very

nervous

We think that everyone should

have the first aid training because

accidents happen all the time

TALES FOR APRINCE THE DAPPLED ROCKING HORSE

There once lived a little girl whose name was JillHer mum and dad were poor but they always gave their child as many

toys as they could afford Now one day when Jill went shopping with her parents and

the house was as qUiet as amouse all of Jills toys started

talking and in the middle of the conversation a deep voice grumbled I need a new coat of paint

It was the rocking horse and yes he did need a new I

coat Why dont you go and ask someone to paint you suggested

the teddy bear And the rocking horse agreed

So the rocking horse set down from his rockers and set off

to look for a person to paint his coat

Soon he came across a group of frogs Excuse me could I

you possibly paint me a new coat of paint he asked Certainly said the frogs So the frogs got their paint I

and their brushes and went to work

Marvellous murmered the rocking horseHed look I

I

lovely with his new coat Very soon they were finished l

But oh dear He was an awful green colour So as soon as the frogs had gone the horse started rolling in the grass

trying to get as much paint off as he could But very soon he just lay still crying because he looked even worse than J

ever 10

~~------_______ ~------______ ~--__ -------______ ~~~---___ ----------__________ ------_______ --_-v ~- _=__=~~CJ

i

Soon a little crowd of mice came by and asked him what was wrongWhen the rocking horse told the mice they took pity on him and said Never mind we will give you a beautiful spotted coat of new paint but you must stand still because we will have to lean ladders against you to reach

So the mice painted a beautiful dappled coat just as they had promised and although their tiny little brushes tickled

the rocking horsf he never moved an ear He thanked them again and looked very pleased for now he

would look nice for Jill So if you know a little girl with a dappled rocking horse

~ou never know it might be Jill Katrina Randell 2J

SWIMMING The rippling clear water Calming my tense nerves

As I lower my body

Then a final gulp-water rushing past me and

I come up for air Throwing my arms behind me To clutch what is not there

Afrantic kick I gain a little lead

Water in my mouth

The pace now slowing down

Only we know the pain ahead aching limbs gasps for air Awhirl-pool pulling at our legs I swallow wat8r but before me

The end In a final kick I rake the water Its good to feel something solid

My pounding heart

RUNNING Must keep going

To reach my destination Something pushing me

An inward fascination

Step by step

Mouth open Breath panting

Rain fall ing

Wi nd whi st ling Feet pounding Getting slower Flag ahead

Confidence growing Lorger steps Growing faster -shyTwo more steps - shyOne and finished

Across the lineshyMission accomplished

SCHOOL COUNCIL

After a very slow start the lower school council has managed this year

to organize itself much better thanks to the form representatives and the form

teachers who have been enthusiastic in giving their time

We meet every week and have managed to organize an agenda for the year

If you would like to find out more about the way school council operates Im

sure your form rep Mrs NaYQr or Mr Phillips will gladly help

Why not come along to one of our meetingsjYou may have something useful to add

MATHS CLASSES ROYAL INSTITUTION OF MATHMATICS MASTERCLASSES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE

After the success of Professor Zeeman s televised lectures on mathnJatics

Christmas 1978 the Royal Institute organised a series of ten Saturday morning

classes to stimulate and encourage children in the art and practice of

mathmatics Third Year pupils who are mathmatically able and judged to have

potential and interest were selected The classes were held at the City of London

Polytechnic

Last year our school was represented by Nicole Russell Thomas Bentley and

Stephen Parkinson who all gave up ten Saturdays to rub shoulders with mathmatics

professors teachers and other matbmatically minded pupils They were so

bitten by the bug and created such a good impression on the organizers that

they were invited back to participate in Advanced Maths Masterclasses over the

summer holidays Following their success five pupils will be attending the

masterclasses this year It is hoped that Garoline Hughes Karina Cox Micky Kullar

Mark Killminster and Peter Lyle will enjoy the sessions as much as last years

group did

Bam ferry to Calais It was very cold

windy on the boat so most of us

wandered around inside looking in

_and buying breakfast

~

At about 10am we arrived to be greeted

a sunny CalaiS and we started our journey through France to Ypres in Belgium On the way we saw several P l ll

Boxes and other structures left over

from the second world War On arrival in Ypres we went for a ten minute walk through the town After this

we were taken to the Menin Gate The

is one of the buildings that Ypres is most famous for as it is

names of all the soldiers

who have no graves and died in battles

in the First World War are carved in

stone There were thousands if not

millions of names chiselled on stone

~ plaques on the gate which is itsel f

was back to the van to visit

called Hill 60 which was a key

location in the battles as the side who ~~fP occupied it had a clear

a massive crater where allied tunnelling

companies had dug under the nill and laia twenty tonnes or explosives which

literally blew orf the top of the hill

We were taken to a museum at Hill 62 where there was part of the origi nal

trench network on exhibition We were

told that it gave a reasonably accurate

impression of what life was like in the

trenches It must have been terrible

Part of the trench was submerged in

water and there was slippery mud

everywhere

Original uniform supplies and weapons

were on display in Hill 62 museum and

also some genuine gory photographs

that made us realise the destruction of

life and buildinS that war brings After a short minibus ride we were back in the centre or YpresWe took a quick

look around the cloth museum answered

our question sheets on the Great War and

stole a last wander around the town to

rind some native rood( chipsJAll too soon it was time to go home after a

PRACTICAL FIRST AID LECTURES WITH

THE BRITISH RED CROSS

We were taught First Aid by Paul

Tiffin of the British Red CrossHe

visited Uffi in our Life Skills lessons

At first we were embarrassed doing

bandaging and mouth to mouth reshy

suscitation but soon we became more

confident and started to enjoy it

An officer from the British Red

Cros s carne to the school to examine us

for our certificate We were all very

nervous

We think that everyone should

have the first aid training because

accidents happen all the time

TALES FOR APRINCE THE DAPPLED ROCKING HORSE

There once lived a little girl whose name was JillHer mum and dad were poor but they always gave their child as many

toys as they could afford Now one day when Jill went shopping with her parents and

the house was as qUiet as amouse all of Jills toys started

talking and in the middle of the conversation a deep voice grumbled I need a new coat of paint

It was the rocking horse and yes he did need a new I

coat Why dont you go and ask someone to paint you suggested

the teddy bear And the rocking horse agreed

So the rocking horse set down from his rockers and set off

to look for a person to paint his coat

Soon he came across a group of frogs Excuse me could I

you possibly paint me a new coat of paint he asked Certainly said the frogs So the frogs got their paint I

and their brushes and went to work

Marvellous murmered the rocking horseHed look I

I

lovely with his new coat Very soon they were finished l

But oh dear He was an awful green colour So as soon as the frogs had gone the horse started rolling in the grass

trying to get as much paint off as he could But very soon he just lay still crying because he looked even worse than J

ever 10

~~------_______ ~------______ ~--__ -------______ ~~~---___ ----------__________ ------_______ --_-v ~- _=__=~~CJ

i

Soon a little crowd of mice came by and asked him what was wrongWhen the rocking horse told the mice they took pity on him and said Never mind we will give you a beautiful spotted coat of new paint but you must stand still because we will have to lean ladders against you to reach

So the mice painted a beautiful dappled coat just as they had promised and although their tiny little brushes tickled

the rocking horsf he never moved an ear He thanked them again and looked very pleased for now he

would look nice for Jill So if you know a little girl with a dappled rocking horse

~ou never know it might be Jill Katrina Randell 2J

Pyerng-ja for the family

SWIMMING The rippling clear water Calming my tense nerves

As I lower my body

Then a final gulp-water rushing past me and

I come up for air Throwing my arms behind me To clutch what is not there

Afrantic kick I gain a little lead

Water in my mouth

The pace now slowing down

Only we know the pain ahead aching limbs gasps for air Awhirl-pool pulling at our legs I swallow wat8r but before me

The end In a final kick I rake the water Its good to feel something solid

My pounding heart

RUNNING Must keep going

To reach my destination Something pushing me

An inward fascination

Step by step

Mouth open Breath panting

Rain fall ing

Wi nd whi st ling Feet pounding Getting slower Flag ahead

Confidence growing Lorger steps Growing faster -shyTwo more steps - shyOne and finished

Across the lineshyMission accomplished

teachers who have been enthusiastic in giving their time

We meet every week and have managed to organize an agenda for the year

sure your form rep Mrs NaYQr or Mr Phillips will gladly help

Why not come along to one of our meetingsjYou may have something useful to add

MATHS CLASSES ROYAL INSTITUTION OF MATHMATICS MASTERCLASSES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE

After the success of Professor Zeeman s televised lectures on mathnJatics

Christmas 1978 the Royal Institute organised a series of ten Saturday morning

classes to stimulate and encourage children in the art and practice of

mathmatics Third Year pupils who are mathmatically able and judged to have

potential and interest were selected The classes were held at the City of London

Polytechnic

Last year our school was represented by Nicole Russell Thomas Bentley and

Stephen Parkinson who all gave up ten Saturdays to rub shoulders with mathmatics

professors teachers and other matbmatically minded pupils They were so

bitten by the bug and created such a good impression on the organizers that

they were invited back to participate in Advanced Maths Masterclasses over the

summer holidays Following their success five pupils will be attending the

masterclasses this year It is hoped that Garoline Hughes Karina Cox Micky Kullar

Mark Killminster and Peter Lyle will enjoy the sessions as much as last years

group did

FOtamprth YbV Trif to VrlCS was Sam on the fifth of May when left school by minibus to catch the

Bam ferry to Calais It was very cold

windy on the boat so most of us

wandered around inside looking in

_and buying breakfast

~

At about 10am we arrived to be greeted

a sunny CalaiS and we started our journey through France to Ypres in Belgium On the way we saw several P l ll

Boxes and other structures left over

from the second world War On arrival in Ypres we went for a ten minute walk through the town After this

we were taken to the Menin Gate The

is one of the buildings that Ypres is most famous for as it is

names of all the soldiers

who have no graves and died in battles

in the First World War are carved in

stone There were thousands if not

millions of names chiselled on stone

~ plaques on the gate which is itsel f

was back to the van to visit

called Hill 60 which was a key

location in the battles as the side who ~~fP occupied it had a clear

a massive crater where allied tunnelling

companies had dug under the nill and laia twenty tonnes or explosives which

literally blew orf the top of the hill

We were taken to a museum at Hill 62 where there was part of the origi nal

trench network on exhibition We were

told that it gave a reasonably accurate

impression of what life was like in the

trenches It must have been terrible

Part of the trench was submerged in

water and there was slippery mud

everywhere

Original uniform supplies and weapons

were on display in Hill 62 museum and

also some genuine gory photographs

that made us realise the destruction of

life and buildinS that war brings After a short minibus ride we were back in the centre or YpresWe took a quick

look around the cloth museum answered

our question sheets on the Great War and

stole a last wander around the town to

rind some native rood( chipsJAll too soon it was time to go home after a

tiring but very profitable daytrip

PRACTICAL FIRST AID LECTURES WITH

THE BRITISH RED CROSS

We were taught First Aid by Paul

Tiffin of the British Red CrossHe

visited Uffi in our Life Skills lessons

At first we were embarrassed doing

bandaging and mouth to mouth reshy

suscitation but soon we became more

confident and started to enjoy it

An officer from the British Red

Cros s carne to the school to examine us

for our certificate We were all very

nervous

We think that everyone should

have the first aid training because

accidents happen all the time

TALES FOR APRINCE THE DAPPLED ROCKING HORSE

There once lived a little girl whose name was JillHer mum and dad were poor but they always gave their child as many

toys as they could afford Now one day when Jill went shopping with her parents and

the house was as qUiet as amouse all of Jills toys started

talking and in the middle of the conversation a deep voice grumbled I need a new coat of paint

It was the rocking horse and yes he did need a new I

coat Why dont you go and ask someone to paint you suggested

the teddy bear And the rocking horse agreed

So the rocking horse set down from his rockers and set off

to look for a person to paint his coat

Soon he came across a group of frogs Excuse me could I

you possibly paint me a new coat of paint he asked Certainly said the frogs So the frogs got their paint I

and their brushes and went to work

Marvellous murmered the rocking horseHed look I

I

lovely with his new coat Very soon they were finished l

But oh dear He was an awful green colour So as soon as the frogs had gone the horse started rolling in the grass

trying to get as much paint off as he could But very soon he just lay still crying because he looked even worse than J

ever 10

~~------_______ ~------______ ~--__ -------______ ~~~---___ ----------__________ ------_______ --_-v ~- _=__=~~CJ

i

Soon a little crowd of mice came by and asked him what was wrongWhen the rocking horse told the mice they took pity on him and said Never mind we will give you a beautiful spotted coat of new paint but you must stand still because we will have to lean ladders against you to reach

So the mice painted a beautiful dappled coat just as they had promised and although their tiny little brushes tickled

the rocking horsf he never moved an ear He thanked them again and looked very pleased for now he

would look nice for Jill So if you know a little girl with a dappled rocking horse

SWIMMING The rippling clear water Calming my tense nerves

As I lower my body

Then a final gulp-water rushing past me and

I come up for air Throwing my arms behind me To clutch what is not there

Afrantic kick I gain a little lead

Water in my mouth

The pace now slowing down

Only we know the pain ahead aching limbs gasps for air Awhirl-pool pulling at our legs I swallow wat8r but before me

The end In a final kick I rake the water Its good to feel something solid

My pounding heart

RUNNING Must keep going

To reach my destination Something pushing me

An inward fascination

Step by step

Mouth open Breath panting

Rain fall ing

SCHOOL COUNCIL

After a very slow start the lower school council has managed this year

to organize itself much better thanks to the form representatives and the form

teachers who have been enthusiastic in giving their time

We meet every week and have managed to organize an agenda for the year

If you would like to find out more about the way school council operates Im

sure your form rep Mrs NaYQr or Mr Phillips will gladly help

Why not come along to one of our meetingsjYou may have something useful to add

MATHS CLASSES ROYAL INSTITUTION OF MATHMATICS MASTERCLASSES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE

After the success of Professor Zeeman s televised lectures on mathnJatics

Christmas 1978 the Royal Institute organised a series of ten Saturday morning

classes to stimulate and encourage children in the art and practice of

mathmatics Third Year pupils who are mathmatically able and judged to have

potential and interest were selected The classes were held at the City of London

Polytechnic

Last year our school was represented by Nicole Russell Thomas Bentley and

Stephen Parkinson who all gave up ten Saturdays to rub shoulders with mathmatics

professors teachers and other matbmatically minded pupils They were so

bitten by the bug and created such a good impression on the organizers that

they were invited back to participate in Advanced Maths Masterclasses over the

summer holidays Following their success five pupils will be attending the

masterclasses this year It is hoped that Garoline Hughes Karina Cox Micky Kullar

Mark Killminster and Peter Lyle will enjoy the sessions as much as last years

group did

FOtamprth YbV Trif to VrlCS was Sam on the fifth of May when left school by minibus to catch the

Bam ferry to Calais It was very cold

windy on the boat so most of us

wandered around inside looking in

_and buying breakfast

~

At about 10am we arrived to be greeted

a sunny CalaiS and we started our journey through France to Ypres in Belgium On the way we saw several P l ll

Boxes and other structures left over

from the second world War On arrival in Ypres we went for a ten minute walk through the town After this

we were taken to the Menin Gate The

is one of the buildings that Ypres is most famous for as it is

names of all the soldiers

who have no graves and died in battles

in the First World War are carved in

stone There were thousands if not

millions of names chiselled on stone

~ plaques on the gate which is itsel f

was back to the van to visit

called Hill 60 which was a key

location in the battles as the side who ~~fP occupied it had a clear

a massive crater where allied tunnelling

companies had dug under the nill and laia twenty tonnes or explosives which

literally blew orf the top of the hill

We were taken to a museum at Hill 62 where there was part of the origi nal

trench network on exhibition We were

told that it gave a reasonably accurate

impression of what life was like in the

trenches It must have been terrible

Part of the trench was submerged in

water and there was slippery mud

everywhere

Original uniform supplies and weapons

were on display in Hill 62 museum and

also some genuine gory photographs

that made us realise the destruction of

life and buildinS that war brings After a short minibus ride we were back in the centre or YpresWe took a quick

look around the cloth museum answered

our question sheets on the Great War and

stole a last wander around the town to

rind some native rood( chipsJAll too soon it was time to go home after a

tiring but very profitable daytrip

PRACTICAL FIRST AID LECTURES WITH

THE BRITISH RED CROSS

We were taught First Aid by Paul

Tiffin of the British Red CrossHe

visited Uffi in our Life Skills lessons

At first we were embarrassed doing

bandaging and mouth to mouth reshy

suscitation but soon we became more

confident and started to enjoy it

An officer from the British Red

Cros s carne to the school to examine us

for our certificate We were all very

nervous

We think that everyone should

have the first aid training because

accidents happen all the time

TALES FOR APRINCE THE DAPPLED ROCKING HORSE

There once lived a little girl whose name was JillHer mum and dad were poor but they always gave their child as many

toys as they could afford Now one day when Jill went shopping with her parents and

the house was as qUiet as amouse all of Jills toys started

talking and in the middle of the conversation a deep voice grumbled I need a new coat of paint

It was the rocking horse and yes he did need a new I

coat Why dont you go and ask someone to paint you suggested

the teddy bear And the rocking horse agreed

So the rocking horse set down from his rockers and set off

to look for a person to paint his coat

Soon he came across a group of frogs Excuse me could I

you possibly paint me a new coat of paint he asked Certainly said the frogs So the frogs got their paint I

and their brushes and went to work

Marvellous murmered the rocking horseHed look I

I

lovely with his new coat Very soon they were finished l

But oh dear He was an awful green colour So as soon as the frogs had gone the horse started rolling in the grass

trying to get as much paint off as he could But very soon he just lay still crying because he looked even worse than J

ever 10

Soon a little crowd of mice came by and asked him what was wrongWhen the rocking horse told the mice they took pity on him and said Never mind we will give you a beautiful spotted coat of new paint but you must stand still because we will have to lean ladders against you to reach

So the mice painted a beautiful dappled coat just as they had promised and although their tiny little brushes tickled

the rocking horsf he never moved an ear He thanked them again and looked very pleased for now he

would look nice for Jill So if you know a little girl with a dappled rocking horse

~ou never know it might be Jill Katrina Randell 2J

SWIMMING The rippling clear water Calming my tense nerves

As I lower my body

Then a final gulp-water rushing past me and

I come up for air Throwing my arms behind me To clutch what is not there

Afrantic kick I gain a little lead

Water in my mouth

The pace now slowing down

Only we know the pain ahead aching limbs gasps for air Awhirl-pool pulling at our legs I swallow wat8r but before me

The end In a final kick I rake the water Its good to feel something solid

My pounding heart

RUNNING Must keep going

To reach my destination Something pushing me

An inward fascination

Step by step

Mouth open Breath panting

Rain fall ing

Wi nd whi st ling Feet pounding Getting slower Flag ahead

Confidence growing Lorger steps Growing faster -shyTwo more steps - shyOne and finished

to organize itself much better thanks to the form representatives and the form

teachers who have been enthusiastic in giving their time

We meet every week and have managed to organize an agenda for the year

MATHS CLASSES ROYAL INSTITUTION OF MATHMATICS MASTERCLASSES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE

After the success of Professor Zeeman s televised lectures on mathnJatics

Christmas 1978 the Royal Institute organised a series of ten Saturday morning

classes to stimulate and encourage children in the art and practice of

mathmatics Third Year pupils who are mathmatically able and judged to have

potential and interest were selected The classes were held at the City of London

Polytechnic

Last year our school was represented by Nicole Russell Thomas Bentley and

Stephen Parkinson who all gave up ten Saturdays to rub shoulders with mathmatics

professors teachers and other matbmatically minded pupils They were so

bitten by the bug and created such a good impression on the organizers that

they were invited back to participate in Advanced Maths Masterclasses over the

summer holidays Following their success five pupils will be attending the

masterclasses this year It is hoped that Garoline Hughes Karina Cox Micky Kullar

Mark Killminster and Peter Lyle will enjoy the sessions as much as last years

group did

FOtamprth YbV Trif to VrlCS was Sam on the fifth of May when left school by minibus to catch the

Bam ferry to Calais It was very cold

windy on the boat so most of us

wandered around inside looking in

_and buying breakfast

~

At about 10am we arrived to be greeted

a sunny CalaiS and we started our journey through France to Ypres in Belgium On the way we saw several P l ll

Boxes and other structures left over

from the second world War On arrival in Ypres we went for a ten minute walk through the town After this

we were taken to the Menin Gate The

is one of the buildings that Ypres is most famous for as it is

names of all the soldiers

who have no graves and died in battles

in the First World War are carved in

stone There were thousands if not

millions of names chiselled on stone

~ plaques on the gate which is itsel f

was back to the van to visit

called Hill 60 which was a key

location in the battles as the side who ~~fP occupied it had a clear

a massive crater where allied tunnelling

companies had dug under the nill and laia twenty tonnes or explosives which

literally blew orf the top of the hill

We were taken to a museum at Hill 62 where there was part of the origi nal

trench network on exhibition We were

told that it gave a reasonably accurate

impression of what life was like in the

trenches It must have been terrible

Part of the trench was submerged in

water and there was slippery mud

everywhere

Original uniform supplies and weapons

were on display in Hill 62 museum and

also some genuine gory photographs

that made us realise the destruction of

life and buildinS that war brings After a short minibus ride we were back in the centre or YpresWe took a quick

look around the cloth museum answered

our question sheets on the Great War and

stole a last wander around the town to

rind some native rood( chipsJAll too soon it was time to go home after a

tiring but very profitable daytrip

PRACTICAL FIRST AID LECTURES WITH

THE BRITISH RED CROSS

We were taught First Aid by Paul

Tiffin of the British Red CrossHe

visited Uffi in our Life Skills lessons

At first we were embarrassed doing

bandaging and mouth to mouth reshy

suscitation but soon we became more

confident and started to enjoy it

An officer from the British Red

Cros s carne to the school to examine us

for our certificate We were all very

nervous

We think that everyone should

have the first aid training because

accidents happen all the time

TALES FOR APRINCE THE DAPPLED ROCKING HORSE

There once lived a little girl whose name was JillHer mum and dad were poor but they always gave their child as many

toys as they could afford Now one day when Jill went shopping with her parents and

the house was as qUiet as amouse all of Jills toys started

talking and in the middle of the conversation a deep voice grumbled I need a new coat of paint

It was the rocking horse and yes he did need a new I

coat Why dont you go and ask someone to paint you suggested

the teddy bear And the rocking horse agreed

So the rocking horse set down from his rockers and set off

to look for a person to paint his coat

Soon he came across a group of frogs Excuse me could I

you possibly paint me a new coat of paint he asked Certainly said the frogs So the frogs got their paint I

and their brushes and went to work

Marvellous murmered the rocking horseHed look I

I

lovely with his new coat Very soon they were finished l

But oh dear He was an awful green colour So as soon as the frogs had gone the horse started rolling in the grass

trying to get as much paint off as he could But very soon he just lay still crying because he looked even worse than J

ever 10

~~------_______ ~------______ ~--__ -------______ ~~~---___ ----------__________ ------_______ --_-v ~- _=__=~~CJ

i

Soon a little crowd of mice came by and asked him what was wrongWhen the rocking horse told the mice they took pity on him and said Never mind we will give you a beautiful spotted coat of new paint but you must stand still because we will have to lean ladders against you to reach

So the mice painted a beautiful dappled coat just as they had promised and although their tiny little brushes tickled

the rocking horsf he never moved an ear He thanked them again and looked very pleased for now he

would look nice for Jill So if you know a little girl with a dappled rocking horse

~ou never know it might be Jill Katrina Randell 2J

SWIMMING The rippling clear water Calming my tense nerves

As I lower my body

Then a final gulp-water rushing past me and

I come up for air Throwing my arms behind me To clutch what is not there

Afrantic kick I gain a little lead

Water in my mouth

The pace now slowing down

Only we know the pain ahead aching limbs gasps for air Awhirl-pool pulling at our legs I swallow wat8r but before me

The end In a final kick I rake the water Its good to feel something solid

My pounding heart

RUNNING Must keep going

To reach my destination Something pushing me

An inward fascination

Step by step

Mouth open Breath panting

Rain fall ing

Wi nd whi st ling Feet pounding Getting slower Flag ahead

Confidence growing Lorger steps Growing faster -shyTwo more steps - shyOne and finished

teachers who have been enthusiastic in giving their time

We meet every week and have managed to organize an agenda for the year

sure your form rep Mrs NaYQr or Mr Phillips will gladly help

Why not come along to one of our meetingsjYou may have something useful to add

MATHS CLASSES ROYAL INSTITUTION OF MATHMATICS MASTERCLASSES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE

After the success of Professor Zeeman s televised lectures on mathnJatics

Christmas 1978 the Royal Institute organised a series of ten Saturday morning

classes to stimulate and encourage children in the art and practice of

mathmatics Third Year pupils who are mathmatically able and judged to have

potential and interest were selected The classes were held at the City of London

Polytechnic

Last year our school was represented by Nicole Russell Thomas Bentley and

Stephen Parkinson who all gave up ten Saturdays to rub shoulders with mathmatics

professors teachers and other matbmatically minded pupils They were so

bitten by the bug and created such a good impression on the organizers that

they were invited back to participate in Advanced Maths Masterclasses over the

summer holidays Following their success five pupils will be attending the

masterclasses this year It is hoped that Garoline Hughes Karina Cox Micky Kullar

Mark Killminster and Peter Lyle will enjoy the sessions as much as last years

group did

FOtamprth YbV Trif to VrlCS was Sam on the fifth of May when left school by minibus to catch the

Bam ferry to Calais It was very cold

windy on the boat so most of us

wandered around inside looking in

_and buying breakfast

~

At about 10am we arrived to be greeted

a sunny CalaiS and we started our journey through France to Ypres in Belgium On the way we saw several P l ll

Boxes and other structures left over

from the second world War On arrival in Ypres we went for a ten minute walk through the town After this

we were taken to the Menin Gate The

is one of the buildings that Ypres is most famous for as it is

names of all the soldiers

who have no graves and died in battles

in the First World War are carved in

stone There were thousands if not

millions of names chiselled on stone

~ plaques on the gate which is itsel f

was back to the van to visit

called Hill 60 which was a key

location in the battles as the side who ~~fP occupied it had a clear

a massive crater where allied tunnelling

companies had dug under the nill and laia twenty tonnes or explosives which

literally blew orf the top of the hill

We were taken to a museum at Hill 62 where there was part of the origi nal

trench network on exhibition We were

told that it gave a reasonably accurate

impression of what life was like in the

trenches It must have been terrible

Part of the trench was submerged in

water and there was slippery mud

everywhere

Original uniform supplies and weapons

were on display in Hill 62 museum and

also some genuine gory photographs

that made us realise the destruction of

life and buildinS that war brings After a short minibus ride we were back in the centre or YpresWe took a quick

look around the cloth museum answered

our question sheets on the Great War and

stole a last wander around the town to

rind some native rood( chipsJAll too soon it was time to go home after a

tiring but very profitable daytrip

PRACTICAL FIRST AID LECTURES WITH

THE BRITISH RED CROSS

We were taught First Aid by Paul

Tiffin of the British Red CrossHe

visited Uffi in our Life Skills lessons

At first we were embarrassed doing

bandaging and mouth to mouth reshy

suscitation but soon we became more

confident and started to enjoy it

An officer from the British Red

Cros s carne to the school to examine us

for our certificate We were all very

nervous

We think that everyone should

have the first aid training because

accidents happen all the time

TALES FOR APRINCE THE DAPPLED ROCKING HORSE

There once lived a little girl whose name was JillHer mum and dad were poor but they always gave their child as many

toys as they could afford Now one day when Jill went shopping with her parents and

the house was as qUiet as amouse all of Jills toys started

talking and in the middle of the conversation a deep voice grumbled I need a new coat of paint

It was the rocking horse and yes he did need a new I

coat Why dont you go and ask someone to paint you suggested

the teddy bear And the rocking horse agreed

So the rocking horse set down from his rockers and set off

to look for a person to paint his coat

Soon he came across a group of frogs Excuse me could I

you possibly paint me a new coat of paint he asked Certainly said the frogs So the frogs got their paint I

and their brushes and went to work

Marvellous murmered the rocking horseHed look I

I

lovely with his new coat Very soon they were finished l

But oh dear He was an awful green colour So as soon as the frogs had gone the horse started rolling in the grass

trying to get as much paint off as he could But very soon he just lay still crying because he looked even worse than J

ever 10

~~------_______ ~------______ ~--__ -------______ ~~~---___ ----------__________ ------_______ --_-v ~- _=__=~~CJ

Soon a little crowd of mice came by and asked him what was wrongWhen the rocking horse told the mice they took pity on him and said Never mind we will give you a beautiful spotted coat of new paint but you must stand still because we will have to lean ladders against you to reach

So the mice painted a beautiful dappled coat just as they had promised and although their tiny little brushes tickled

the rocking horsf he never moved an ear He thanked them again and looked very pleased for now he

would look nice for Jill So if you know a little girl with a dappled rocking horse

~ou never know it might be Jill Katrina Randell 2J

SWIMMING The rippling clear water Calming my tense nerves

As I lower my body

Then a final gulp-water rushing past me and

I come up for air Throwing my arms behind me To clutch what is not there

Afrantic kick I gain a little lead

Water in my mouth

The pace now slowing down

Only we know the pain ahead aching limbs gasps for air Awhirl-pool pulling at our legs I swallow wat8r but before me

The end In a final kick I rake the water Its good to feel something solid

My pounding heart

RUNNING Must keep going

To reach my destination Something pushing me

An inward fascination

Step by step

Mouth open Breath panting

Rain fall ing

Wi nd whi st ling Feet pounding Getting slower Flag ahead

Confidence growing Lorger steps Growing faster -shyTwo more steps - shyOne and finished

SCHOOL COUNCIL

After a very slow start the lower school council has managed this year

to organize itself much better thanks to the form representatives and the form

teachers who have been enthusiastic in giving their time

We meet every week and have managed to organize an agenda for the year

If you would like to find out more about the way school council operates Im

sure your form rep Mrs NaYQr or Mr Phillips will gladly help

Why not come along to one of our meetingsjYou may have something useful to add

MATHS CLASSES ROYAL INSTITUTION OF MATHMATICS MASTERCLASSES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE

After the success of Professor Zeeman s televised lectures on mathnJatics

Christmas 1978 the Royal Institute organised a series of ten Saturday morning

classes to stimulate and encourage children in the art and practice of

mathmatics Third Year pupils who are mathmatically able and judged to have

potential and interest were selected The classes were held at the City of London

Polytechnic

Last year our school was represented by Nicole Russell Thomas Bentley and

Stephen Parkinson who all gave up ten Saturdays to rub shoulders with mathmatics

professors teachers and other matbmatically minded pupils They were so

bitten by the bug and created such a good impression on the organizers that

they were invited back to participate in Advanced Maths Masterclasses over the

summer holidays Following their success five pupils will be attending the

masterclasses this year It is hoped that Garoline Hughes Karina Cox Micky Kullar

Mark Killminster and Peter Lyle will enjoy the sessions as much as last years

group did

FOtamprth YbV Trif to VrlCS was Sam on the fifth of May when left school by minibus to catch the

Bam ferry to Calais It was very cold

windy on the boat so most of us

wandered around inside looking in

_and buying breakfast

~

At about 10am we arrived to be greeted

a sunny CalaiS and we started our journey through France to Ypres in Belgium On the way we saw several P l ll

Boxes and other structures left over

from the second world War On arrival in Ypres we went for a ten minute walk through the town After this

we were taken to the Menin Gate The

is one of the buildings that Ypres is most famous for as it is

names of all the soldiers

who have no graves and died in battles

in the First World War are carved in

stone There were thousands if not

millions of names chiselled on stone

~ plaques on the gate which is itsel f

was back to the van to visit

called Hill 60 which was a key

location in the battles as the side who ~~fP occupied it had a clear

years

a massive crater where allied tunnelling

companies had dug under the nill and laia twenty tonnes or explosives which

literally blew orf the top of the hill

We were taken to a museum at Hill 62 where there was part of the origi nal

trench network on exhibition We were

told that it gave a reasonably accurate

impression of what life was like in the

trenches It must have been terrible

Part of the trench was submerged in

water and there was slippery mud

everywhere

Original uniform supplies and weapons

were on display in Hill 62 museum and

also some genuine gory photographs

that made us realise the destruction of

life and buildinS that war brings After a short minibus ride we were back in the centre or YpresWe took a quick

look around the cloth museum answered

our question sheets on the Great War and

stole a last wander around the town to

rind some native rood( chipsJAll too soon it was time to go home after a

tiring but very profitable daytrip

PRACTICAL FIRST AID LECTURES WITH

THE BRITISH RED CROSS

We were taught First Aid by Paul

Tiffin of the British Red CrossHe

visited Uffi in our Life Skills lessons

At first we were embarrassed doing

bandaging and mouth to mouth reshy

suscitation but soon we became more

confident and started to enjoy it

An officer from the British Red

Cros s carne to the school to examine us

for our certificate We were all very

nervous

We think that everyone should

have the first aid training because

accidents happen all the time

TALES FOR APRINCE THE DAPPLED ROCKING HORSE

There once lived a little girl whose name was JillHer mum and dad were poor but they always gave their child as many

toys as they could afford Now one day when Jill went shopping with her parents and

the house was as qUiet as amouse all of Jills toys started

talking and in the middle of the conversation a deep voice grumbled I need a new coat of paint

It was the rocking horse and yes he did need a new I

coat Why dont you go and ask someone to paint you suggested

the teddy bear And the rocking horse agreed

So the rocking horse set down from his rockers and set off

to look for a person to paint his coat

Soon he came across a group of frogs Excuse me could I

you possibly paint me a new coat of paint he asked Certainly said the frogs So the frogs got their paint I

and their brushes and went to work

Marvellous murmered the rocking horseHed look I

I

lovely with his new coat Very soon they were finished l

But oh dear He was an awful green colour So as soon as the frogs had gone the horse started rolling in the grass

trying to get as much paint off as he could But very soon he just lay still crying because he looked even worse than J

ever 10

~~------_______ ~------______ ~--__ -------______ ~~~---___ ----------__________ ------_______ --_-v ~- _=__=~~CJ

i

Soon a little crowd of mice came by and asked him what was wrongWhen the rocking horse told the mice they took pity on him and said Never mind we will give you a beautiful spotted coat of new paint but you must stand still because we will have to lean ladders against you to reach

So the mice painted a beautiful dappled coat just as they had promised and although their tiny little brushes tickled

the rocking horsf he never moved an ear He thanked them again and looked very pleased for now he

would look nice for Jill So if you know a little girl with a dappled rocking horse

~ou never know it might be Jill Katrina Randell 2J

SWIMMING The rippling clear water Calming my tense nerves

As I lower my body

Then a final gulp-water rushing past me and

I come up for air Throwing my arms behind me To clutch what is not there

Afrantic kick I gain a little lead

Water in my mouth

The pace now slowing down

Only we know the pain ahead aching limbs gasps for air Awhirl-pool pulling at our legs I swallow wat8r but before me

The end In a final kick I rake the water Its good to feel something solid

My pounding heart

RUNNING Must keep going

To reach my destination Something pushing me

An inward fascination

Step by step

Mouth open Breath panting

Rain fall ing

Wi nd whi st ling Feet pounding Getting slower Flag ahead

Confidence growing Lorger steps Growing faster -shyTwo more steps - shyOne and finished

Across the lineshyMission accomplished

teachers who have been enthusiastic in giving their time

We meet every week and have managed to organize an agenda for the year

If you would like to find out more about the way school council operates Im

sure your form rep Mrs NaYQr or Mr Phillips will gladly help

Why not come along to one of our meetingsjYou may have something useful to add

MATHS CLASSES ROYAL INSTITUTION OF MATHMATICS MASTERCLASSES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE

After the success of Professor Zeeman s televised lectures on mathnJatics

Christmas 1978 the Royal Institute organised a series of ten Saturday morning

classes to stimulate and encourage children in the art and practice of

mathmatics Third Year pupils who are mathmatically able and judged to have

potential and interest were selected The classes were held at the City of London

Polytechnic

Last year our school was represented by Nicole Russell Thomas Bentley and

Stephen Parkinson who all gave up ten Saturdays to rub shoulders with mathmatics

professors teachers and other matbmatically minded pupils They were so

bitten by the bug and created such a good impression on the organizers that

they were invited back to participate in Advanced Maths Masterclasses over the

summer holidays Following their success five pupils will be attending the

masterclasses this year It is hoped that Garoline Hughes Karina Cox Micky Kullar

Mark Killminster and Peter Lyle will enjoy the sessions as much as last years

group did

FOtamprth YbV Trif to VrlCS was Sam on the fifth of May when left school by minibus to catch the

Bam ferry to Calais It was very cold

windy on the boat so most of us

wandered around inside looking in

_and buying breakfast

~

At about 10am we arrived to be greeted

a sunny CalaiS and we started our journey through France to Ypres in Belgium On the way we saw several P l ll

Boxes and other structures left over

from the second world War On arrival in Ypres we went for a ten minute walk through the town After this

we were taken to the Menin Gate The

is one of the buildings that Ypres is most famous for as it is

names of all the soldiers

who have no graves and died in battles

in the First World War are carved in

stone There were thousands if not

millions of names chiselled on stone

~ plaques on the gate which is itsel f

was back to the van to visit

called Hill 60 which was a key

location in the battles as the side who ~~fP occupied it had a clear

a massive crater where allied tunnelling

companies had dug under the nill and laia twenty tonnes or explosives which

literally blew orf the top of the hill

We were taken to a museum at Hill 62 where there was part of the origi nal

trench network on exhibition We were

told that it gave a reasonably accurate

impression of what life was like in the

trenches It must have been terrible

Part of the trench was submerged in

water and there was slippery mud

everywhere

Original uniform supplies and weapons

were on display in Hill 62 museum and

also some genuine gory photographs

that made us realise the destruction of

life and buildinS that war brings After a short minibus ride we were back in the centre or YpresWe took a quick

look around the cloth museum answered

our question sheets on the Great War and

stole a last wander around the town to

rind some native rood( chipsJAll too soon it was time to go home after a

tiring but very profitable daytrip

PRACTICAL FIRST AID LECTURES WITH

THE BRITISH RED CROSS

We were taught First Aid by Paul

Tiffin of the British Red CrossHe

visited Uffi in our Life Skills lessons

At first we were embarrassed doing

bandaging and mouth to mouth reshy

suscitation but soon we became more

confident and started to enjoy it

An officer from the British Red

Cros s carne to the school to examine us

for our certificate We were all very

nervous

We think that everyone should

have the first aid training because

accidents happen all the time

TALES FOR APRINCE THE DAPPLED ROCKING HORSE

There once lived a little girl whose name was JillHer mum and dad were poor but they always gave their child as many

toys as they could afford Now one day when Jill went shopping with her parents and

the house was as qUiet as amouse all of Jills toys started

talking and in the middle of the conversation a deep voice grumbled I need a new coat of paint

It was the rocking horse and yes he did need a new I

coat Why dont you go and ask someone to paint you suggested

the teddy bear And the rocking horse agreed

So the rocking horse set down from his rockers and set off

to look for a person to paint his coat

Soon he came across a group of frogs Excuse me could I

you possibly paint me a new coat of paint he asked Certainly said the frogs So the frogs got their paint I

and their brushes and went to work

Marvellous murmered the rocking horseHed look I

I

lovely with his new coat Very soon they were finished l

But oh dear He was an awful green colour So as soon as the frogs had gone the horse started rolling in the grass

trying to get as much paint off as he could But very soon he just lay still crying because he looked even worse than J

ever 10

~~------_______ ~------______ ~--__ -------______ ~~~---___ ----------__________ ------_______ --_-v ~- _=__=~~CJ

Soon a little crowd of mice came by and asked him what was wrongWhen the rocking horse told the mice they took pity on him and said Never mind we will give you a beautiful spotted coat of new paint but you must stand still because we will have to lean ladders against you to reach

So the mice painted a beautiful dappled coat just as they had promised and although their tiny little brushes tickled

the rocking horsf he never moved an ear He thanked them again and looked very pleased for now he

would look nice for Jill So if you know a little girl with a dappled rocking horse

~ou never know it might be Jill Katrina Randell 2J

SWIMMING The rippling clear water Calming my tense nerves

As I lower my body

Then a final gulp-water rushing past me and

I come up for air Throwing my arms behind me To clutch what is not there

Afrantic kick I gain a little lead

Water in my mouth

The pace now slowing down

Only we know the pain ahead aching limbs gasps for air Awhirl-pool pulling at our legs I swallow wat8r but before me

The end In a final kick I rake the water Its good to feel something solid

My pounding heart

RUNNING Must keep going

To reach my destination Something pushing me

An inward fascination

Step by step

Mouth open Breath panting

Rain fall ing

Wi nd whi st ling Feet pounding Getting slower Flag ahead

Confidence growing Lorger steps Growing faster -shyTwo more steps - shyOne and finished

SCHOOL COUNCIL

After a very slow start the lower school council has managed this year

to organize itself much better thanks to the form representatives and the form

teachers who have been enthusiastic in giving their time

We meet every week and have managed to organize an agenda for the year

If you would like to find out more about the way school council operates Im

sure your form rep Mrs NaYQr or Mr Phillips will gladly help

Why not come along to one of our meetingsjYou may have something useful to add

MATHS CLASSES ROYAL INSTITUTION OF MATHMATICS MASTERCLASSES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE

After the success of Professor Zeeman s televised lectures on mathnJatics

Christmas 1978 the Royal Institute organised a series of ten Saturday morning

classes to stimulate and encourage children in the art and practice of

mathmatics Third Year pupils who are mathmatically able and judged to have

potential and interest were selected The classes were held at the City of London

Polytechnic

Last year our school was represented by Nicole Russell Thomas Bentley and

Stephen Parkinson who all gave up ten Saturdays to rub shoulders with mathmatics

professors teachers and other matbmatically minded pupils They were so

bitten by the bug and created such a good impression on the organizers that

they were invited back to participate in Advanced Maths Masterclasses over the

summer holidays Following their success five pupils will be attending the

masterclasses this year It is hoped that Garoline Hughes Karina Cox Micky Kullar

Mark Killminster and Peter Lyle will enjoy the sessions as much as last years

group did

FOtamprth YbV Trif to VrlCS was Sam on the fifth of May when left school by minibus to catch the

Bam ferry to Calais It was very cold

windy on the boat so most of us

wandered around inside looking in

_and buying breakfast

~

At about 10am we arrived to be greeted

a sunny CalaiS and we started our journey through France to Ypres in Belgium On the way we saw several P l ll

Boxes and other structures left over

from the second world War On arrival in Ypres we went for a ten minute walk through the town After this

we were taken to the Menin Gate The

is one of the buildings that Ypres is most famous for as it is

names of all the soldiers

who have no graves and died in battles

in the First World War are carved in

stone There were thousands if not

millions of names chiselled on stone

~ plaques on the gate which is itsel f

was back to the van to visit

called Hill 60 which was a key

location in the battles as the side who ~~fP occupied it had a clear

years

a massive crater where allied tunnelling

companies had dug under the nill and laia twenty tonnes or explosives which

literally blew orf the top of the hill

We were taken to a museum at Hill 62 where there was part of the origi nal

trench network on exhibition We were

told that it gave a reasonably accurate

impression of what life was like in the

trenches It must have been terrible

Part of the trench was submerged in

water and there was slippery mud

everywhere

Original uniform supplies and weapons

were on display in Hill 62 museum and

also some genuine gory photographs

that made us realise the destruction of

life and buildinS that war brings After a short minibus ride we were back in the centre or YpresWe took a quick

look around the cloth museum answered

our question sheets on the Great War and

stole a last wander around the town to

rind some native rood( chipsJAll too soon it was time to go home after a

tiring but very profitable daytrip

PRACTICAL FIRST AID LECTURES WITH

THE BRITISH RED CROSS

We were taught First Aid by Paul

Tiffin of the British Red CrossHe

visited Uffi in our Life Skills lessons

At first we were embarrassed doing

bandaging and mouth to mouth reshy

suscitation but soon we became more

confident and started to enjoy it

An officer from the British Red

Cros s carne to the school to examine us

for our certificate We were all very

nervous

We think that everyone should

have the first aid training because

accidents happen all the time

TALES FOR APRINCE THE DAPPLED ROCKING HORSE

There once lived a little girl whose name was JillHer mum and dad were poor but they always gave their child as many

toys as they could afford Now one day when Jill went shopping with her parents and

the house was as qUiet as amouse all of Jills toys started

talking and in the middle of the conversation a deep voice grumbled I need a new coat of paint

It was the rocking horse and yes he did need a new I

coat Why dont you go and ask someone to paint you suggested

the teddy bear And the rocking horse agreed

So the rocking horse set down from his rockers and set off

to look for a person to paint his coat

Soon he came across a group of frogs Excuse me could I

you possibly paint me a new coat of paint he asked Certainly said the frogs So the frogs got their paint I

and their brushes and went to work

Marvellous murmered the rocking horseHed look I

I

lovely with his new coat Very soon they were finished l

But oh dear He was an awful green colour So as soon as the frogs had gone the horse started rolling in the grass

trying to get as much paint off as he could But very soon he just lay still crying because he looked even worse than J

ever 10

~~------_______ ~------______ ~--__ -------______ ~~~---___ ----------__________ ------_______ --_-v ~- _=__=~~CJ

i

Soon a little crowd of mice came by and asked him what was wrongWhen the rocking horse told the mice they took pity on him and said Never mind we will give you a beautiful spotted coat of new paint but you must stand still because we will have to lean ladders against you to reach

So the mice painted a beautiful dappled coat just as they had promised and although their tiny little brushes tickled

the rocking horsf he never moved an ear He thanked them again and looked very pleased for now he

would look nice for Jill So if you know a little girl with a dappled rocking horse

~ou never know it might be Jill Katrina Randell 2J

SWIMMING The rippling clear water Calming my tense nerves

As I lower my body

Then a final gulp-water rushing past me and

I come up for air Throwing my arms behind me To clutch what is not there

Afrantic kick I gain a little lead

Water in my mouth

The pace now slowing down

Only we know the pain ahead aching limbs gasps for air Awhirl-pool pulling at our legs I swallow wat8r but before me

The end In a final kick I rake the water Its good to feel something solid

My pounding heart

RUNNING Must keep going

To reach my destination Something pushing me

An inward fascination

Step by step

Mouth open Breath panting

Rain fall ing

Wi nd whi st ling Feet pounding Getting slower Flag ahead

Confidence growing Lorger steps Growing faster -shyTwo more steps - shyOne and finished

Across the lineshyMission accomplished

teachers who have been enthusiastic in giving their time

We meet every week and have managed to organize an agenda for the year

If you would like to find out more about the way school council operates Im

sure your form rep Mrs NaYQr or Mr Phillips will gladly help

Why not come along to one of our meetingsjYou may have something useful to add

MATHS CLASSES ROYAL INSTITUTION OF MATHMATICS MASTERCLASSES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE

After the success of Professor Zeeman s televised lectures on mathnJatics

Christmas 1978 the Royal Institute organised a series of ten Saturday morning

classes to stimulate and encourage children in the art and practice of

mathmatics Third Year pupils who are mathmatically able and judged to have

potential and interest were selected The classes were held at the City of London

Polytechnic

Last year our school was represented by Nicole Russell Thomas Bentley and

Stephen Parkinson who all gave up ten Saturdays to rub shoulders with mathmatics

professors teachers and other matbmatically minded pupils They were so

bitten by the bug and created such a good impression on the organizers that

they were invited back to participate in Advanced Maths Masterclasses over the

summer holidays Following their success five pupils will be attending the

masterclasses this year It is hoped that Garoline Hughes Karina Cox Micky Kullar

Mark Killminster and Peter Lyle will enjoy the sessions as much as last years

group did

FOtamprth YbV Trif to VrlCS was Sam on the fifth of May when left school by minibus to catch the

Bam ferry to Calais It was very cold

windy on the boat so most of us

wandered around inside looking in

_and buying breakfast

~

At about 10am we arrived to be greeted

a sunny CalaiS and we started our journey through France to Ypres in Belgium On the way we saw several P l ll

Boxes and other structures left over

from the second world War On arrival in Ypres we went for a ten minute walk through the town After this

we were taken to the Menin Gate The

is one of the buildings that Ypres is most famous for as it is

names of all the soldiers

who have no graves and died in battles

in the First World War are carved in

stone There were thousands if not

millions of names chiselled on stone

~ plaques on the gate which is itsel f

was back to the van to visit

called Hill 60 which was a key

location in the battles as the side who ~~fP occupied it had a clear

a massive crater where allied tunnelling

companies had dug under the nill and laia twenty tonnes or explosives which

literally blew orf the top of the hill

We were taken to a museum at Hill 62 where there was part of the origi nal

trench network on exhibition We were

told that it gave a reasonably accurate

impression of what life was like in the

trenches It must have been terrible

Part of the trench was submerged in

water and there was slippery mud

everywhere

Original uniform supplies and weapons

were on display in Hill 62 museum and

also some genuine gory photographs

that made us realise the destruction of

life and buildinS that war brings After a short minibus ride we were back in the centre or YpresWe took a quick

look around the cloth museum answered

our question sheets on the Great War and

stole a last wander around the town to

rind some native rood( chipsJAll too soon it was time to go home after a

tiring but very profitable daytrip

PRACTICAL FIRST AID LECTURES WITH

THE BRITISH RED CROSS

We were taught First Aid by Paul

Tiffin of the British Red CrossHe

visited Uffi in our Life Skills lessons

At first we were embarrassed doing

bandaging and mouth to mouth reshy

suscitation but soon we became more

confident and started to enjoy it

An officer from the British Red

Cros s carne to the school to examine us

for our certificate We were all very

nervous

We think that everyone should

have the first aid training because

accidents happen all the time

TALES FOR APRINCE THE DAPPLED ROCKING HORSE

There once lived a little girl whose name was JillHer mum and dad were poor but they always gave their child as many

toys as they could afford Now one day when Jill went shopping with her parents and

the house was as qUiet as amouse all of Jills toys started

talking and in the middle of the conversation a deep voice grumbled I need a new coat of paint

It was the rocking horse and yes he did need a new I

coat Why dont you go and ask someone to paint you suggested

the teddy bear And the rocking horse agreed

So the rocking horse set down from his rockers and set off

to look for a person to paint his coat

Soon he came across a group of frogs Excuse me could I

you possibly paint me a new coat of paint he asked Certainly said the frogs So the frogs got their paint I

and their brushes and went to work

Marvellous murmered the rocking horseHed look I

I

lovely with his new coat Very soon they were finished l

But oh dear He was an awful green colour So as soon as the frogs had gone the horse started rolling in the grass

trying to get as much paint off as he could But very soon he just lay still crying because he looked even worse than J

ever 10

Soon a little crowd of mice came by and asked him what was wrongWhen the rocking horse told the mice they took pity on him and said Never mind we will give you a beautiful spotted coat of new paint but you must stand still because we will have to lean ladders against you to reach

So the mice painted a beautiful dappled coat just as they had promised and although their tiny little brushes tickled

the rocking horsf he never moved an ear He thanked them again and looked very pleased for now he

would look nice for Jill So if you know a little girl with a dappled rocking horse

~ou never know it might be Jill Katrina Randell 2J

SWIMMING The rippling clear water Calming my tense nerves

As I lower my body

Then a final gulp-water rushing past me and

I come up for air Throwing my arms behind me To clutch what is not there

Afrantic kick I gain a little lead

Water in my mouth

The pace now slowing down

Only we know the pain ahead aching limbs gasps for air Awhirl-pool pulling at our legs I swallow wat8r but before me

The end In a final kick I rake the water Its good to feel something solid

My pounding heart

RUNNING Must keep going

To reach my destination Something pushing me

An inward fascination

Step by step

Mouth open Breath panting

Rain fall ing

Wi nd whi st ling Feet pounding Getting slower Flag ahead

Confidence growing Lorger steps Growing faster -shyTwo more steps - shyOne and finished

Across the lineshyMission accomplished

SCHOOL COUNCIL

After a very slow start the lower school council has managed this year

to organize itself much better thanks to the form representatives and the form

teachers who have been enthusiastic in giving their time

We meet every week and have managed to organize an agenda for the year

If you would like to find out more about the way school council operates Im

sure your form rep Mrs NaYQr or Mr Phillips will gladly help

Why not come along to one of our meetingsjYou may have something useful to add

MATHS CLASSES ROYAL INSTITUTION OF MATHMATICS MASTERCLASSES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE

After the success of Professor Zeeman s televised lectures on mathnJatics

Christmas 1978 the Royal Institute organised a series of ten Saturday morning

classes to stimulate and encourage children in the art and practice of

mathmatics Third Year pupils who are mathmatically able and judged to have

potential and interest were selected The classes were held at the City of London

Polytechnic

Last year our school was represented by Nicole Russell Thomas Bentley and

Stephen Parkinson who all gave up ten Saturdays to rub shoulders with mathmatics

professors teachers and other matbmatically minded pupils They were so

bitten by the bug and created such a good impression on the organizers that

they were invited back to participate in Advanced Maths Masterclasses over the

summer holidays Following their success five pupils will be attending the

masterclasses this year It is hoped that Garoline Hughes Karina Cox Micky Kullar

Mark Killminster and Peter Lyle will enjoy the sessions as much as last years

group did

FOtamprth YbV Trif to VrlCS was Sam on the fifth of May when left school by minibus to catch the

Bam ferry to Calais It was very cold

windy on the boat so most of us

wandered around inside looking in

_and buying breakfast

~

At about 10am we arrived to be greeted

a sunny CalaiS and we started our journey through France to Ypres in Belgium On the way we saw several P l ll

Boxes and other structures left over

from the second world War On arrival in Ypres we went for a ten minute walk through the town After this

we were taken to the Menin Gate The

is one of the buildings that Ypres is most famous for as it is

names of all the soldiers

who have no graves and died in battles

in the First World War are carved in

stone There were thousands if not

millions of names chiselled on stone

~ plaques on the gate which is itsel f

was back to the van to visit

called Hill 60 which was a key

location in the battles as the side who ~~fP occupied it had a clear

years

a massive crater where allied tunnelling

companies had dug under the nill and laia twenty tonnes or explosives which

literally blew orf the top of the hill

We were taken to a museum at Hill 62 where there was part of the origi nal

trench network on exhibition We were

told that it gave a reasonably accurate

impression of what life was like in the

trenches It must have been terrible

Part of the trench was submerged in

water and there was slippery mud

everywhere

Original uniform supplies and weapons

were on display in Hill 62 museum and

also some genuine gory photographs

that made us realise the destruction of

life and buildinS that war brings After a short minibus ride we were back in the centre or YpresWe took a quick

look around the cloth museum answered

our question sheets on the Great War and

stole a last wander around the town to

rind some native rood( chipsJAll too soon it was time to go home after a

tiring but very profitable daytrip

PRACTICAL FIRST AID LECTURES WITH

THE BRITISH RED CROSS

We were taught First Aid by Paul

Tiffin of the British Red CrossHe

visited Uffi in our Life Skills lessons

At first we were embarrassed doing

bandaging and mouth to mouth reshy

suscitation but soon we became more

confident and started to enjoy it

An officer from the British Red

Cros s carne to the school to examine us

for our certificate We were all very

nervous

We think that everyone should

have the first aid training because

accidents happen all the time

TALES FOR APRINCE THE DAPPLED ROCKING HORSE

There once lived a little girl whose name was JillHer mum and dad were poor but they always gave their child as many

toys as they could afford Now one day when Jill went shopping with her parents and

the house was as qUiet as amouse all of Jills toys started

talking and in the middle of the conversation a deep voice grumbled I need a new coat of paint

It was the rocking horse and yes he did need a new I

coat Why dont you go and ask someone to paint you suggested

the teddy bear And the rocking horse agreed

So the rocking horse set down from his rockers and set off

to look for a person to paint his coat

Soon he came across a group of frogs Excuse me could I

you possibly paint me a new coat of paint he asked Certainly said the frogs So the frogs got their paint I

and their brushes and went to work

Marvellous murmered the rocking horseHed look I

I

lovely with his new coat Very soon they were finished l

But oh dear He was an awful green colour So as soon as the frogs had gone the horse started rolling in the grass

trying to get as much paint off as he could But very soon he just lay still crying because he looked even worse than J

ever 10

~~------_______ ~------______ ~--__ -------______ ~~~---___ ----------__________ ------_______ --_-v ~- _=__=~~CJ

i

Soon a little crowd of mice came by and asked him what was wrongWhen the rocking horse told the mice they took pity on him and said Never mind we will give you a beautiful spotted coat of new paint but you must stand still because we will have to lean ladders against you to reach

So the mice painted a beautiful dappled coat just as they had promised and although their tiny little brushes tickled

the rocking horsf he never moved an ear He thanked them again and looked very pleased for now he

would look nice for Jill So if you know a little girl with a dappled rocking horse

~ou never know it might be Jill Katrina Randell 2J

As I lower my body

Then a final gulp-water rushing past me and

I come up for air Throwing my arms behind me To clutch what is not there

Afrantic kick I gain a little lead

Water in my mouth

The pace now slowing down

Only we know the pain ahead aching limbs gasps for air Awhirl-pool pulling at our legs I swallow wat8r but before me

The end In a final kick I rake the water Its good to feel something solid

My pounding heart

RUNNING Must keep going

To reach my destination Something pushing me

An inward fascination

Step by step

Mouth open Breath panting

Rain fall ing

Wi nd whi st ling Feet pounding Getting slower Flag ahead

Confidence growing Lorger steps Growing faster -shyTwo more steps - shyOne and finished

Across the lineshyMission accomplished

teachers who have been enthusiastic in giving their time

We meet every week and have managed to organize an agenda for the year

sure your form rep Mrs NaYQr or Mr Phillips will gladly help

Why not come along to one of our meetingsjYou may have something useful to add

MATHS CLASSES ROYAL INSTITUTION OF MATHMATICS MASTERCLASSES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE

After the success of Professor Zeeman s televised lectures on mathnJatics

Christmas 1978 the Royal Institute organised a series of ten Saturday morning

classes to stimulate and encourage children in the art and practice of

mathmatics Third Year pupils who are mathmatically able and judged to have

potential and interest were selected The classes were held at the City of London

Polytechnic

Last year our school was represented by Nicole Russell Thomas Bentley and

Stephen Parkinson who all gave up ten Saturdays to rub shoulders with mathmatics

professors teachers and other matbmatically minded pupils They were so

bitten by the bug and created such a good impression on the organizers that

they were invited back to participate in Advanced Maths Masterclasses over the

summer holidays Following their success five pupils will be attending the

masterclasses this year It is hoped that Garoline Hughes Karina Cox Micky Kullar

Mark Killminster and Peter Lyle will enjoy the sessions as much as last years

group did

FOtamprth YbV Trif to VrlCS was Sam on the fifth of May when left school by minibus to catch the

Bam ferry to Calais It was very cold

windy on the boat so most of us

wandered around inside looking in

_and buying breakfast

~

At about 10am we arrived to be greeted

a sunny CalaiS and we started our journey through France to Ypres in Belgium On the way we saw several P l ll

Boxes and other structures left over

from the second world War On arrival in Ypres we went for a ten minute walk through the town After this

we were taken to the Menin Gate The

is one of the buildings that Ypres is most famous for as it is

names of all the soldiers

who have no graves and died in battles

in the First World War are carved in

stone There were thousands if not

millions of names chiselled on stone

~ plaques on the gate which is itsel f

was back to the van to visit

called Hill 60 which was a key

location in the battles as the side who ~~fP occupied it had a clear

a massive crater where allied tunnelling

companies had dug under the nill and laia twenty tonnes or explosives which

literally blew orf the top of the hill

We were taken to a museum at Hill 62 where there was part of the origi nal

trench network on exhibition We were

told that it gave a reasonably accurate

impression of what life was like in the

trenches It must have been terrible

Part of the trench was submerged in

water and there was slippery mud

everywhere

Original uniform supplies and weapons

were on display in Hill 62 museum and

also some genuine gory photographs

that made us realise the destruction of

life and buildinS that war brings After a short minibus ride we were back in the centre or YpresWe took a quick

look around the cloth museum answered

our question sheets on the Great War and

stole a last wander around the town to

rind some native rood( chipsJAll too soon it was time to go home after a

tiring but very profitable daytrip

PRACTICAL FIRST AID LECTURES WITH

THE BRITISH RED CROSS

We were taught First Aid by Paul

Tiffin of the British Red CrossHe

visited Uffi in our Life Skills lessons

At first we were embarrassed doing

bandaging and mouth to mouth reshy

suscitation but soon we became more

confident and started to enjoy it

An officer from the British Red

Cros s carne to the school to examine us

for our certificate We were all very

nervous

We think that everyone should

have the first aid training because

accidents happen all the time

DESIGN amp LAYOUT BY THE SC HOOL

Page 21: The Raineian 1987

Soon a little crowd of mice came by and asked him what was wrongWhen the rocking horse told the mice they took pity on him and said Never mind we will give you a beautiful spotted coat of new paint but you must stand still because we will have to lean ladders against you to reach

So the mice painted a beautiful dappled coat just as they had promised and although their tiny little brushes tickled

the rocking horsf he never moved an ear He thanked them again and looked very pleased for now he

would look nice for Jill So if you know a little girl with a dappled rocking horse

SWIMMING The rippling clear water Calming my tense nerves

As I lower my body

Then a final gulp-water rushing past me and

I come up for air Throwing my arms behind me To clutch what is not there

Afrantic kick I gain a little lead

Water in my mouth

The pace now slowing down

Only we know the pain ahead aching limbs gasps for air Awhirl-pool pulling at our legs I swallow wat8r but before me

The end In a final kick I rake the water Its good to feel something solid

My pounding heart

RUNNING Must keep going

To reach my destination Something pushing me

An inward fascination

Step by step

Mouth open Breath panting

Rain fall ing

Wi nd whi st ling Feet pounding Getting slower Flag ahead

Confidence growing Lorger steps Growing faster -shyTwo more steps - shyOne and finished

After a very slow start the lower school council has managed this year

to organize itself much better thanks to the form representatives and the form

teachers who have been enthusiastic in giving their time

We meet every week and have managed to organize an agenda for the year

MATHS CLASSES ROYAL INSTITUTION OF MATHMATICS MASTERCLASSES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE

After the success of Professor Zeeman s televised lectures on mathnJatics

Christmas 1978 the Royal Institute organised a series of ten Saturday morning

classes to stimulate and encourage children in the art and practice of

mathmatics Third Year pupils who are mathmatically able and judged to have

potential and interest were selected The classes were held at the City of London

Polytechnic

Last year our school was represented by Nicole Russell Thomas Bentley and

Stephen Parkinson who all gave up ten Saturdays to rub shoulders with mathmatics

professors teachers and other matbmatically minded pupils They were so

bitten by the bug and created such a good impression on the organizers that

they were invited back to participate in Advanced Maths Masterclasses over the

summer holidays Following their success five pupils will be attending the

masterclasses this year It is hoped that Garoline Hughes Karina Cox Micky Kullar

Mark Killminster and Peter Lyle will enjoy the sessions as much as last years

group did

FOtamprth YbV Trif to VrlCS was Sam on the fifth of May when left school by minibus to catch the

Bam ferry to Calais It was very cold

windy on the boat so most of us

wandered around inside looking in

_and buying breakfast

~

At about 10am we arrived to be greeted

a sunny CalaiS and we started our journey through France to Ypres in Belgium On the way we saw several P l ll

Boxes and other structures left over

from the second world War On arrival in Ypres we went for a ten minute walk through the town After this

we were taken to the Menin Gate The

is one of the buildings that Ypres is most famous for as it is

names of all the soldiers

who have no graves and died in battles

in the First World War are carved in

stone There were thousands if not

millions of names chiselled on stone

~ plaques on the gate which is itsel f

was back to the van to visit

called Hill 60 which was a key

location in the battles as the side who ~~fP occupied it had a clear

years

a massive crater where allied tunnelling

companies had dug under the nill and laia twenty tonnes or explosives which

literally blew orf the top of the hill

We were taken to a museum at Hill 62 where there was part of the origi nal

trench network on exhibition We were

told that it gave a reasonably accurate

impression of what life was like in the

trenches It must have been terrible

Part of the trench was submerged in

water and there was slippery mud

everywhere

Original uniform supplies and weapons

were on display in Hill 62 museum and

also some genuine gory photographs

that made us realise the destruction of

life and buildinS that war brings After a short minibus ride we were back in the centre or YpresWe took a quick

look around the cloth museum answered

our question sheets on the Great War and

stole a last wander around the town to

rind some native rood( chipsJAll too soon it was time to go home after a

tiring but very profitable daytrip

PRACTICAL FIRST AID LECTURES WITH

THE BRITISH RED CROSS

We were taught First Aid by Paul

Tiffin of the British Red CrossHe

visited Uffi in our Life Skills lessons

At first we were embarrassed doing

bandaging and mouth to mouth reshy

suscitation but soon we became more

confident and started to enjoy it

An officer from the British Red

Cros s carne to the school to examine us

for our certificate We were all very

nervous

We think that everyone should

have the first aid training because

accidents happen all the time

SWIMMING The rippling clear water Calming my tense nerves

As I lower my body

Then a final gulp-water rushing past me and

I come up for air Throwing my arms behind me To clutch what is not there

Afrantic kick I gain a little lead

Water in my mouth

The pace now slowing down

Only we know the pain ahead aching limbs gasps for air Awhirl-pool pulling at our legs I swallow wat8r but before me

The end In a final kick I rake the water Its good to feel something solid

My pounding heart

RUNNING Must keep going

To reach my destination Something pushing me

An inward fascination

Step by step

Mouth open Breath panting

Rain fall ing

Wi nd whi st ling Feet pounding Getting slower Flag ahead

Confidence growing Lorger steps Growing faster -shyTwo more steps - shyOne and finished

Across the lineshyMission accomplished

SCHOOL COUNCIL

After a very slow start the lower school council has managed this year

to organize itself much better thanks to the form representatives and the form

teachers who have been enthusiastic in giving their time

We meet every week and have managed to organize an agenda for the year

If you would like to find out more about the way school council operates Im

sure your form rep Mrs NaYQr or Mr Phillips will gladly help

Why not come along to one of our meetingsjYou may have something useful to add

nutr my brab Tom Bus the recently bereaved widower arrived sadly at the coffin Syrup Funeral Parlour He banged loudly on the gargo yle knocker The door eventually opened and Tom was confronted by an eight foot tall muscle bound man in dark glasses The man had two metal things seemingly stuck to his

MATHS CLASSES ROYAL INSTITUTION OF MATHMATICS MASTERCLASSES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE

After the success of Professor Zeeman s televised lectures on mathnJatics

Christmas 1978 the Royal Institute organised a series of ten Saturday morning

classes to stimulate and encourage children in the art and practice of

mathmatics Third Year pupils who are mathmatically able and judged to have

potential and interest were selected The classes were held at the City of London

Polytechnic

Last year our school was represented by Nicole Russell Thomas Bentley and

Stephen Parkinson who all gave up ten Saturdays to rub shoulders with mathmatics

professors teachers and other matbmatically minded pupils They were so

bitten by the bug and created such a good impression on the organizers that

they were invited back to participate in Advanced Maths Masterclasses over the

summer holidays Following their success five pupils will be attending the

masterclasses this year It is hoped that Garoline Hughes Karina Cox Micky Kullar

Mark Killminster and Peter Lyle will enjoy the sessions as much as last years

group did

FOtamprth YbV Trif to VrlCS was Sam on the fifth of May when left school by minibus to catch the

Bam ferry to Calais It was very cold

windy on the boat so most of us

wandered around inside looking in

_and buying breakfast

~

At about 10am we arrived to be greeted

a sunny CalaiS and we started our journey through France to Ypres in Belgium On the way we saw several P l ll

Boxes and other structures left over

from the second world War On arrival in Ypres we went for a ten minute walk through the town After this

we were taken to the Menin Gate The

is one of the buildings that Ypres is most famous for as it is

names of all the soldiers

who have no graves and died in battles

in the First World War are carved in

stone There were thousands if not

millions of names chiselled on stone

~ plaques on the gate which is itsel f

was back to the van to visit

called Hill 60 which was a key

location in the battles as the side who ~~fP occupied it had a clear

a massive crater where allied tunnelling

companies had dug under the nill and laia twenty tonnes or explosives which

literally blew orf the top of the hill

We were taken to a museum at Hill 62 where there was part of the origi nal

trench network on exhibition We were

told that it gave a reasonably accurate

impression of what life was like in the

trenches It must have been terrible

Part of the trench was submerged in

water and there was slippery mud

everywhere

Original uniform supplies and weapons

were on display in Hill 62 museum and

also some genuine gory photographs

that made us realise the destruction of

life and buildinS that war brings After a short minibus ride we were back in the centre or YpresWe took a quick

look around the cloth museum answered

our question sheets on the Great War and

stole a last wander around the town to

rind some native rood( chipsJAll too soon it was time to go home after a

tiring but very profitable daytrip

PRACTICAL FIRST AID LECTURES WITH

THE BRITISH RED CROSS

We were taught First Aid by Paul

Tiffin of the British Red CrossHe

visited Uffi in our Life Skills lessons

At first we were embarrassed doing

bandaging and mouth to mouth reshy

suscitation but soon we became more

confident and started to enjoy it

An officer from the British Red

Cros s carne to the school to examine us

for our certificate We were all very

nervous

We think that everyone should

have the first aid training because

accidents happen all the time

SWIMMING The rippling clear water Calming my tense nerves

As I lower my body

Then a final gulp-water rushing past me and

I come up for air Throwing my arms behind me To clutch what is not there

Afrantic kick I gain a little lead

Water in my mouth

The pace now slowing down

Only we know the pain ahead aching limbs gasps for air Awhirl-pool pulling at our legs I swallow wat8r but before me

The end In a final kick I rake the water Its good to feel something solid

My pounding heart

RUNNING Must keep going

To reach my destination Something pushing me

An inward fascination

Step by step

Mouth open Breath panting

Rain fall ing

Wi nd whi st ling Feet pounding Getting slower Flag ahead

Confidence growing Lorger steps Growing faster -shyTwo more steps - shyOne and finished

Across the lineshyMission accomplished

SCHOOL COUNCIL

After a very slow start the lower school council has managed this year

to organize itself much better thanks to the form representatives and the form

teachers who have been enthusiastic in giving their time

We meet every week and have managed to organize an agenda for the year

If you would like to find out more about the way school council operates Im

sure your form rep Mrs NaYQr or Mr Phillips will gladly help

Why not come along to one of our meetingsjYou may have something useful to add

MATHS CLASSES ROYAL INSTITUTION OF MATHMATICS MASTERCLASSES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE

After the success of Professor Zeeman s televised lectures on mathnJatics

Christmas 1978 the Royal Institute organised a series of ten Saturday morning

classes to stimulate and encourage children in the art and practice of

mathmatics Third Year pupils who are mathmatically able and judged to have

potential and interest were selected The classes were held at the City of London

Polytechnic

Last year our school was represented by Nicole Russell Thomas Bentley and

Stephen Parkinson who all gave up ten Saturdays to rub shoulders with mathmatics

professors teachers and other matbmatically minded pupils They were so

bitten by the bug and created such a good impression on the organizers that

they were invited back to participate in Advanced Maths Masterclasses over the

summer holidays Following their success five pupils will be attending the

masterclasses this year It is hoped that Garoline Hughes Karina Cox Micky Kullar

Mark Killminster and Peter Lyle will enjoy the sessions as much as last years

group did

FOtamprth YbV Trif to VrlCS was Sam on the fifth of May when left school by minibus to catch the

Bam ferry to Calais It was very cold

windy on the boat so most of us

wandered around inside looking in

_and buying breakfast

~

At about 10am we arrived to be greeted

a sunny CalaiS and we started our journey through France to Ypres in Belgium On the way we saw several P l ll

Boxes and other structures left over

from the second world War On arrival in Ypres we went for a ten minute walk through the town After this

we were taken to the Menin Gate The

is one of the buildings that Ypres is most famous for as it is

names of all the soldiers

who have no graves and died in battles

in the First World War are carved in

stone There were thousands if not

millions of names chiselled on stone

~ plaques on the gate which is itsel f

was back to the van to visit

called Hill 60 which was a key

location in the battles as the side who ~~fP occupied it had a clear

a massive crater where allied tunnelling

companies had dug under the nill and laia twenty tonnes or explosives which

literally blew orf the top of the hill

We were taken to a museum at Hill 62 where there was part of the origi nal

trench network on exhibition We were

told that it gave a reasonably accurate

impression of what life was like in the

trenches It must have been terrible

Part of the trench was submerged in

water and there was slippery mud

everywhere

Original uniform supplies and weapons

were on display in Hill 62 museum and

also some genuine gory photographs

that made us realise the destruction of

life and buildinS that war brings After a short minibus ride we were back in the centre or YpresWe took a quick

look around the cloth museum answered

our question sheets on the Great War and

stole a last wander around the town to

rind some native rood( chipsJAll too soon it was time to go home after a

tiring but very profitable daytrip

PRACTICAL FIRST AID LECTURES WITH

THE BRITISH RED CROSS

We were taught First Aid by Paul

Tiffin of the British Red CrossHe

visited Uffi in our Life Skills lessons

At first we were embarrassed doing

bandaging and mouth to mouth reshy

suscitation but soon we became more

confident and started to enjoy it

An officer from the British Red

Cros s carne to the school to examine us

for our certificate We were all very

nervous

We think that everyone should

have the first aid training because

accidents happen all the time

SWIMMING The rippling clear water Calming my tense nerves

As I lower my body

Then a final gulp-water rushing past me and

I come up for air Throwing my arms behind me To clutch what is not there

Afrantic kick I gain a little lead

Water in my mouth

The pace now slowing down

Only we know the pain ahead aching limbs gasps for air Awhirl-pool pulling at our legs I swallow wat8r but before me

The end In a final kick I rake the water Its good to feel something solid

My pounding heart

RUNNING Must keep going

To reach my destination Something pushing me

An inward fascination

Step by step

Mouth open Breath panting

Rain fall ing

Wi nd whi st ling Feet pounding Getting slower Flag ahead

Confidence growing Lorger steps Growing faster -shyTwo more steps - shyOne and finished

After a very slow start the lower school council has managed this year

to organize itself much better thanks to the form representatives and the form

teachers who have been enthusiastic in giving their time

We meet every week and have managed to organize an agenda for the year

If you would like to find out more about the way school council operates Im

sure your form rep Mrs NaYQr or Mr Phillips will gladly help

Why not come along to one of our meetingsjYou may have something useful to add

MATHS CLASSES ROYAL INSTITUTION OF MATHMATICS MASTERCLASSES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE

After the success of Professor Zeeman s televised lectures on mathnJatics

Christmas 1978 the Royal Institute organised a series of ten Saturday morning

classes to stimulate and encourage children in the art and practice of

mathmatics Third Year pupils who are mathmatically able and judged to have

potential and interest were selected The classes were held at the City of London

Polytechnic

Last year our school was represented by Nicole Russell Thomas Bentley and

Stephen Parkinson who all gave up ten Saturdays to rub shoulders with mathmatics

professors teachers and other matbmatically minded pupils They were so

bitten by the bug and created such a good impression on the organizers that

they were invited back to participate in Advanced Maths Masterclasses over the

summer holidays Following their success five pupils will be attending the

masterclasses this year It is hoped that Garoline Hughes Karina Cox Micky Kullar

Mark Killminster and Peter Lyle will enjoy the sessions as much as last years

group did

FOtamprth YbV Trif to VrlCS was Sam on the fifth of May when left school by minibus to catch the

Bam ferry to Calais It was very cold

windy on the boat so most of us

wandered around inside looking in

_and buying breakfast

~

At about 10am we arrived to be greeted

a sunny CalaiS and we started our journey through France to Ypres in Belgium On the way we saw several P l ll

Boxes and other structures left over

from the second world War On arrival in Ypres we went for a ten minute walk through the town After this

we were taken to the Menin Gate The

is one of the buildings that Ypres is most famous for as it is

names of all the soldiers

who have no graves and died in battles

in the First World War are carved in

stone There were thousands if not

millions of names chiselled on stone

~ plaques on the gate which is itsel f

was back to the van to visit

called Hill 60 which was a key

location in the battles as the side who ~~fP occupied it had a clear

a massive crater where allied tunnelling

companies had dug under the nill and laia twenty tonnes or explosives which

literally blew orf the top of the hill

We were taken to a museum at Hill 62 where there was part of the origi nal

trench network on exhibition We were

told that it gave a reasonably accurate

impression of what life was like in the

trenches It must have been terrible

Part of the trench was submerged in

water and there was slippery mud

everywhere

Original uniform supplies and weapons

were on display in Hill 62 museum and

also some genuine gory photographs

that made us realise the destruction of

life and buildinS that war brings After a short minibus ride we were back in the centre or YpresWe took a quick

look around the cloth museum answered

our question sheets on the Great War and

stole a last wander around the town to

rind some native rood( chipsJAll too soon it was time to go home after a

tiring but very profitable daytrip

PRACTICAL FIRST AID LECTURES WITH

THE BRITISH RED CROSS

We were taught First Aid by Paul

Tiffin of the British Red CrossHe

visited Uffi in our Life Skills lessons

At first we were embarrassed doing

bandaging and mouth to mouth reshy

suscitation but soon we became more

confident and started to enjoy it

An officer from the British Red

Cros s carne to the school to examine us

for our certificate We were all very

nervous

We think that everyone should

have the first aid training because

accidents happen all the time

Love from all of us

Pyerng-ja for the family

SWIMMING The rippling clear water Calming my tense nerves

As I lower my body

Then a final gulp-water rushing past me and

I come up for air Throwing my arms behind me To clutch what is not there

Afrantic kick I gain a little lead

Water in my mouth

The pace now slowing down

Only we know the pain ahead aching limbs gasps for air Awhirl-pool pulling at our legs I swallow wat8r but before me

The end In a final kick I rake the water Its good to feel something solid

My pounding heart

RUNNING Must keep going

To reach my destination Something pushing me

An inward fascination

Step by step

Mouth open Breath panting

Rain fall ing

Wi nd whi st ling Feet pounding Getting slower Flag ahead

Confidence growing Lorger steps Growing faster -shyTwo more steps - shyOne and finished

Across the lineshyMission accomplished

teachers who have been enthusiastic in giving their time

We meet every week and have managed to organize an agenda for the year

sure your form rep Mrs NaYQr or Mr Phillips will gladly help

Why not come along to one of our meetingsjYou may have something useful to add

MATHS CLASSES ROYAL INSTITUTION OF MATHMATICS MASTERCLASSES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE

After the success of Professor Zeeman s televised lectures on mathnJatics

Christmas 1978 the Royal Institute organised a series of ten Saturday morning

classes to stimulate and encourage children in the art and practice of

mathmatics Third Year pupils who are mathmatically able and judged to have

potential and interest were selected The classes were held at the City of London

Polytechnic

Last year our school was represented by Nicole Russell Thomas Bentley and

Stephen Parkinson who all gave up ten Saturdays to rub shoulders with mathmatics

professors teachers and other matbmatically minded pupils They were so

bitten by the bug and created such a good impression on the organizers that

they were invited back to participate in Advanced Maths Masterclasses over the

summer holidays Following their success five pupils will be attending the

masterclasses this year It is hoped that Garoline Hughes Karina Cox Micky Kullar

Mark Killminster and Peter Lyle will enjoy the sessions as much as last years

group did

FOtamprth YbV Trif to VrlCS was Sam on the fifth of May when left school by minibus to catch the

Bam ferry to Calais It was very cold

windy on the boat so most of us

wandered around inside looking in

_and buying breakfast

~

At about 10am we arrived to be greeted

a sunny CalaiS and we started our journey through France to Ypres in Belgium On the way we saw several P l ll

Boxes and other structures left over

from the second world War On arrival in Ypres we went for a ten minute walk through the town After this

we were taken to the Menin Gate The

is one of the buildings that Ypres is most famous for as it is

names of all the soldiers

who have no graves and died in battles

in the First World War are carved in

stone There were thousands if not

millions of names chiselled on stone

~ plaques on the gate which is itsel f

was back to the van to visit

called Hill 60 which was a key

location in the battles as the side who ~~fP occupied it had a clear

a massive crater where allied tunnelling

companies had dug under the nill and laia twenty tonnes or explosives which

literally blew orf the top of the hill

We were taken to a museum at Hill 62 where there was part of the origi nal

trench network on exhibition We were

told that it gave a reasonably accurate

impression of what life was like in the

trenches It must have been terrible

Part of the trench was submerged in

water and there was slippery mud

everywhere

Original uniform supplies and weapons

were on display in Hill 62 museum and

also some genuine gory photographs

that made us realise the destruction of

life and buildinS that war brings After a short minibus ride we were back in the centre or YpresWe took a quick

look around the cloth museum answered

our question sheets on the Great War and

stole a last wander around the town to

rind some native rood( chipsJAll too soon it was time to go home after a

tiring but very profitable daytrip

PRACTICAL FIRST AID LECTURES WITH

THE BRITISH RED CROSS

We were taught First Aid by Paul

Tiffin of the British Red CrossHe

visited Uffi in our Life Skills lessons

At first we were embarrassed doing

bandaging and mouth to mouth reshy

suscitation but soon we became more

confident and started to enjoy it

An officer from the British Red

Cros s carne to the school to examine us

for our certificate We were all very

nervous

We think that everyone should

have the first aid training because

accidents happen all the time

SWIMMING The rippling clear water Calming my tense nerves

As I lower my body

Then a final gulp-water rushing past me and

I come up for air Throwing my arms behind me To clutch what is not there

Afrantic kick I gain a little lead

Water in my mouth

The pace now slowing down

Only we know the pain ahead aching limbs gasps for air Awhirl-pool pulling at our legs I swallow wat8r but before me

The end In a final kick I rake the water Its good to feel something solid

My pounding heart

RUNNING Must keep going

To reach my destination Something pushing me

An inward fascination

Step by step

Mouth open Breath panting

Rain fall ing

Wi nd whi st ling Feet pounding Getting slower Flag ahead

Confidence growing Lorger steps Growing faster -shyTwo more steps - shyOne and finished

Across the lineshyMission accomplished

teachers who have been enthusiastic in giving their time

We meet every week and have managed to organize an agenda for the year

sure your form rep Mrs NaYQr or Mr Phillips will gladly help

MATHS CLASSES ROYAL INSTITUTION OF MATHMATICS MASTERCLASSES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE

After the success of Professor Zeeman s televised lectures on mathnJatics

Christmas 1978 the Royal Institute organised a series of ten Saturday morning

classes to stimulate and encourage children in the art and practice of

mathmatics Third Year pupils who are mathmatically able and judged to have

potential and interest were selected The classes were held at the City of London

Polytechnic

Last year our school was represented by Nicole Russell Thomas Bentley and

Stephen Parkinson who all gave up ten Saturdays to rub shoulders with mathmatics

professors teachers and other matbmatically minded pupils They were so

bitten by the bug and created such a good impression on the organizers that

they were invited back to participate in Advanced Maths Masterclasses over the

summer holidays Following their success five pupils will be attending the

masterclasses this year It is hoped that Garoline Hughes Karina Cox Micky Kullar

Mark Killminster and Peter Lyle will enjoy the sessions as much as last years

group did

FOtamprth YbV Trif to VrlCS was Sam on the fifth of May when left school by minibus to catch the

Bam ferry to Calais It was very cold

windy on the boat so most of us

wandered around inside looking in

_and buying breakfast

~

At about 10am we arrived to be greeted

a sunny CalaiS and we started our journey through France to Ypres in Belgium On the way we saw several P l ll

Boxes and other structures left over

from the second world War On arrival in Ypres we went for a ten minute walk through the town After this

we were taken to the Menin Gate The

is one of the buildings that Ypres is most famous for as it is

names of all the soldiers

who have no graves and died in battles

in the First World War are carved in

stone There were thousands if not

millions of names chiselled on stone

~ plaques on the gate which is itsel f

was back to the van to visit

called Hill 60 which was a key

location in the battles as the side who ~~fP occupied it had a clear

years

a massive crater where allied tunnelling

companies had dug under the nill and laia twenty tonnes or explosives which

literally blew orf the top of the hill

We were taken to a museum at Hill 62 where there was part of the origi nal

trench network on exhibition We were

told that it gave a reasonably accurate

impression of what life was like in the

trenches It must have been terrible

Part of the trench was submerged in

water and there was slippery mud

everywhere

Original uniform supplies and weapons

were on display in Hill 62 museum and

also some genuine gory photographs

that made us realise the destruction of

life and buildinS that war brings After a short minibus ride we were back in the centre or YpresWe took a quick

look around the cloth museum answered

our question sheets on the Great War and

stole a last wander around the town to

rind some native rood( chipsJAll too soon it was time to go home after a

tiring but very profitable daytrip

PRACTICAL FIRST AID LECTURES WITH

THE BRITISH RED CROSS

We were taught First Aid by Paul

Tiffin of the British Red CrossHe

visited Uffi in our Life Skills lessons

At first we were embarrassed doing

bandaging and mouth to mouth reshy

suscitation but soon we became more

confident and started to enjoy it

An officer from the British Red

Cros s carne to the school to examine us

for our certificate We were all very

nervous

We think that everyone should

have the first aid training because

accidents happen all the time

As I lower my body

Then a final gulp-water rushing past me and

I come up for air Throwing my arms behind me To clutch what is not there

Afrantic kick I gain a little lead

Water in my mouth

The pace now slowing down

Only we know the pain ahead aching limbs gasps for air Awhirl-pool pulling at our legs I swallow wat8r but before me

The end In a final kick I rake the water Its good to feel something solid

My pounding heart

RUNNING Must keep going

To reach my destination Something pushing me

An inward fascination

SCHOOL COUNCIL

After a very slow start the lower school council has managed this year

to organize itself much better thanks to the form representatives and the form

teachers who have been enthusiastic in giving their time

We meet every week and have managed to organize an agenda for the year

If you would like to find out more about the way school council operates Im

sure your form rep Mrs NaYQr or Mr Phillips will gladly help

Why not come along to one of our meetingsjYou may have something useful to add

MATHS CLASSES ROYAL INSTITUTION OF MATHMATICS MASTERCLASSES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE

After the success of Professor Zeeman s televised lectures on mathnJatics

Christmas 1978 the Royal Institute organised a series of ten Saturday morning

classes to stimulate and encourage children in the art and practice of

mathmatics Third Year pupils who are mathmatically able and judged to have

potential and interest were selected The classes were held at the City of London

Polytechnic

Last year our school was represented by Nicole Russell Thomas Bentley and

Stephen Parkinson who all gave up ten Saturdays to rub shoulders with mathmatics

professors teachers and other matbmatically minded pupils They were so

bitten by the bug and created such a good impression on the organizers that

they were invited back to participate in Advanced Maths Masterclasses over the

summer holidays Following their success five pupils will be attending the

masterclasses this year It is hoped that Garoline Hughes Karina Cox Micky Kullar

Mark Killminster and Peter Lyle will enjoy the sessions as much as last years

group did

FOtamprth YbV Trif to VrlCS was Sam on the fifth of May when left school by minibus to catch the

Bam ferry to Calais It was very cold

windy on the boat so most of us

wandered around inside looking in

_and buying breakfast

~

At about 10am we arrived to be greeted

a sunny CalaiS and we started our journey through France to Ypres in Belgium On the way we saw several P l ll

Boxes and other structures left over

from the second world War On arrival in Ypres we went for a ten minute walk through the town After this

we were taken to the Menin Gate The

is one of the buildings that Ypres is most famous for as it is

names of all the soldiers

who have no graves and died in battles

in the First World War are carved in

stone There were thousands if not

millions of names chiselled on stone

~ plaques on the gate which is itsel f

was back to the van to visit

called Hill 60 which was a key

location in the battles as the side who ~~fP occupied it had a clear

years

a massive crater where allied tunnelling

companies had dug under the nill and laia twenty tonnes or explosives which

literally blew orf the top of the hill

We were taken to a museum at Hill 62 where there was part of the origi nal

trench network on exhibition We were

told that it gave a reasonably accurate

impression of what life was like in the

trenches It must have been terrible

Part of the trench was submerged in

water and there was slippery mud

everywhere

Original uniform supplies and weapons

were on display in Hill 62 museum and

also some genuine gory photographs

that made us realise the destruction of

life and buildinS that war brings After a short minibus ride we were back in the centre or YpresWe took a quick

look around the cloth museum answered

our question sheets on the Great War and

stole a last wander around the town to

rind some native rood( chipsJAll too soon it was time to go home after a

tiring but very profitable daytrip

PRACTICAL FIRST AID LECTURES WITH

THE BRITISH RED CROSS

We were taught First Aid by Paul

Tiffin of the British Red CrossHe

visited Uffi in our Life Skills lessons

At first we were embarrassed doing

bandaging and mouth to mouth reshy

suscitation but soon we became more

confident and started to enjoy it

An officer from the British Red

Cros s carne to the school to examine us

for our certificate We were all very

nervous

We think that everyone should

have the first aid training because

accidents happen all the time

SNOWDON Everyone arrived outside the school gates at B30am prompt eager to set off First of all all the luggage was put into the black bags then put onto the roof of two mini-buses and tied down Then we all said good-bye to our parents and got on board most of the way we had the tadio on vety loud It was a vety long Way When we got there we had to drive up a very steep hill to a barn with a wall in front of it When we all got off the minishybuses everyone wanted to get their luggage but we first had to pitch the tents Mr Willett and Mr Wilson put one tent up to show how it was done Samantha Prigg was complaining about all the sheeps muck on the grass so Mr Willett threw some on her After we had pitched the tents and put all the lugga~e in them we all just sat around laughing For dinner that night we had a stew~ it wasnt fabulous but at least it was edible After dinner and after the washing up was done every-one went back down to their tents until it was time for cocoa Every-one was supposed to stay in their tents until Bam but we was all up at630am When Mr Willett came down we all rushed back to our tents Af tet breakfast we all had to get our ruck sacks because we were going to Beddgelert Why do we need our ruck-sacks we thought we soon found out We had to walk Not just along flat ground but along three different mountains it was a teally titing ~oJalk When we

87shyfinally got back to do was sleep In the evening we a story by Miss off to bed By Wednesday getting up a bit people were late which was at breakfast we got

all we wanted

SCHOOL COUNCIL

After a very slow start the lower school council has managed this year

to organize itself much better thanks to the form representatives and the form

teachers who have been enthusiastic in giving their time

We meet every week and have managed to organize an agenda for the year

If you would like to find out more about the way school council operates Im

sure your form rep Mrs NaYQr or Mr Phillips will gladly help

Why not come along to one of our meetingsjYou may have something useful to add

nutr my brab Tom Bus the recently bereaved widower arrived sadly at the coffin Syrup Funeral Parlour He banged loudly on the gargo yle knocker The door eventually opened and Tom was confronted by an eight foot tall muscle bound man in dark glasses The man had two metal things seemingly stuck to his

MATHS CLASSES ROYAL INSTITUTION OF MATHMATICS MASTERCLASSES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE

After the success of Professor Zeeman s televised lectures on mathnJatics

Christmas 1978 the Royal Institute organised a series of ten Saturday morning

classes to stimulate and encourage children in the art and practice of

mathmatics Third Year pupils who are mathmatically able and judged to have

potential and interest were selected The classes were held at the City of London

Polytechnic

Last year our school was represented by Nicole Russell Thomas Bentley and

Stephen Parkinson who all gave up ten Saturdays to rub shoulders with mathmatics

professors teachers and other matbmatically minded pupils They were so

bitten by the bug and created such a good impression on the organizers that

they were invited back to participate in Advanced Maths Masterclasses over the

summer holidays Following their success five pupils will be attending the

masterclasses this year It is hoped that Garoline Hughes Karina Cox Micky Kullar

Mark Killminster and Peter Lyle will enjoy the sessions as much as last years

group did

FOtamprth YbV Trif to VrlCS was Sam on the fifth of May when left school by minibus to catch the

Bam ferry to Calais It was very cold

windy on the boat so most of us

wandered around inside looking in

_and buying breakfast

~

At about 10am we arrived to be greeted

a sunny CalaiS and we started our journey through France to Ypres in Belgium On the way we saw several P l ll

Boxes and other structures left over

from the second world War On arrival in Ypres we went for a ten minute walk through the town After this

we were taken to the Menin Gate The

is one of the buildings that Ypres is most famous for as it is

names of all the soldiers

who have no graves and died in battles

in the First World War are carved in

stone There were thousands if not

millions of names chiselled on stone

~ plaques on the gate which is itsel f

was back to the van to visit

called Hill 60 which was a key

location in the battles as the side who ~~fP occupied it had a clear

years

a massive crater where allied tunnelling

companies had dug under the nill and laia twenty tonnes or explosives which

literally blew orf the top of the hill

We were taken to a museum at Hill 62 where there was part of the origi nal

trench network on exhibition We were

told that it gave a reasonably accurate

impression of what life was like in the

trenches It must have been terrible

Part of the trench was submerged in

water and there was slippery mud

everywhere

Original uniform supplies and weapons

were on display in Hill 62 museum and

also some genuine gory photographs

that made us realise the destruction of

life and buildinS that war brings After a short minibus ride we were back in the centre or YpresWe took a quick

look around the cloth museum answered

our question sheets on the Great War and

stole a last wander around the town to

rind some native rood( chipsJAll too soon it was time to go home after a

tiring but very profitable daytrip

PRACTICAL FIRST AID LECTURES WITH

THE BRITISH RED CROSS

We were taught First Aid by Paul

Tiffin of the British Red CrossHe

visited Uffi in our Life Skills lessons

At first we were embarrassed doing

bandaging and mouth to mouth reshy

suscitation but soon we became more

confident and started to enjoy it

An officer from the British Red

Cros s carne to the school to examine us

for our certificate We were all very

nervous

We think that everyone should

have the first aid training because

accidents happen all the time

SNOWDON Everyone arrived outside the school gates at B30am prompt eager to set off First of all all the luggage was put into the black bags then put onto the roof of two mini-buses and tied down Then we all said good-bye to our parents and got on board most of the way we had the tadio on vety loud It was a vety long Way When we got there we had to drive up a very steep hill to a barn with a wall in front of it When we all got off the minishybuses everyone wanted to get their luggage but we first had to pitch the tents Mr Willett and Mr Wilson put one tent up to show how it was done Samantha Prigg was complaining about all the sheeps muck on the grass so Mr Willett threw some on her After we had pitched the tents and put all the lugga~e in them we all just sat around laughing For dinner that night we had a stew~ it wasnt fabulous but at least it was edible After dinner and after the washing up was done every-one went back down to their tents until it was time for cocoa Every-one was supposed to stay in their tents until Bam but we was all up at630am When Mr Willett came down we all rushed back to our tents Af tet breakfast we all had to get our ruck sacks because we were going to Beddgelert Why do we need our ruck-sacks we thought we soon found out We had to walk Not just along flat ground but along three different mountains it was a teally titing ~oJalk When we

87shyfinally got back to do was sleep In the evening we a story by Miss off to bed By Wednesday getting up a bit people were late which was at breakfast we got

all we wanted

had cocoa and Fuller then

we were all later and some for breakfast

B30am After our rucksacks

again collected our ready made packed lunch and got on board the mini-buses We were going to the beach for the day where we swam played rounders and9 s9uared king ball~ Thursday was the day we had to climb Mt Snowdon We got our pack lunches ready and had a clothes inspection to see if our clothes were warm enough We drove to the bottom of Snowdon and then got out and started to climb After the first five minutes we all wanted to rest When we got to the top there was a cafe and we all had a dtink It was a hatd journey going down but eas iet than going up That night everyone was tired and could not wait to go to bed On our last day we went to the Slate Mines and on the Blaenow Pfestiniog Railway which was 9Llite eHutingWhen we got off we were in Porthmadog where we went shopping We spent the rest of the day in the river ne x t to the camp-site this was gteat fun All too soon our holiday was over and we had to sweep out our tents pack everthing away and head home - after first waving to the sheep of course

SCHOOL COUNCIL

After a very slow start the lower school council has managed this year

to organize itself much better thanks to the form representatives and the form

teachers who have been enthusiastic in giving their time

We meet every week and have managed to organize an agenda for the year

If you would like to find out more about the way school council operates Im

sure your form rep Mrs NaYQr or Mr Phillips will gladly help

Why not come along to one of our meetingsjYou may have something useful to add

nutr my brab Tom Bus the recently bereaved widower arrived sadly at the coffin Syrup Funeral Parlour He banged loudly on the gargo yle knocker The door eventually opened and Tom was confronted by an eight foot tall muscle bound man in dark glasses The man had two metal things seemingly stuck to his

MATHS CLASSES ROYAL INSTITUTION OF MATHMATICS MASTERCLASSES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE

After the success of Professor Zeeman s televised lectures on mathnJatics

Christmas 1978 the Royal Institute organised a series of ten Saturday morning

classes to stimulate and encourage children in the art and practice of

mathmatics Third Year pupils who are mathmatically able and judged to have

potential and interest were selected The classes were held at the City of London

Polytechnic

Last year our school was represented by Nicole Russell Thomas Bentley and

Stephen Parkinson who all gave up ten Saturdays to rub shoulders with mathmatics

professors teachers and other matbmatically minded pupils They were so

bitten by the bug and created such a good impression on the organizers that

they were invited back to participate in Advanced Maths Masterclasses over the

summer holidays Following their success five pupils will be attending the

masterclasses this year It is hoped that Garoline Hughes Karina Cox Micky Kullar

Mark Killminster and Peter Lyle will enjoy the sessions as much as last years

group did

FOtamprth YbV Trif to VrlCS was Sam on the fifth of May when left school by minibus to catch the

Bam ferry to Calais It was very cold

windy on the boat so most of us

wandered around inside looking in

_and buying breakfast

~

At about 10am we arrived to be greeted

a sunny CalaiS and we started our journey through France to Ypres in Belgium On the way we saw several P l ll

Boxes and other structures left over

from the second world War On arrival in Ypres we went for a ten minute walk through the town After this

we were taken to the Menin Gate The

is one of the buildings that Ypres is most famous for as it is

names of all the soldiers

who have no graves and died in battles

in the First World War are carved in

stone There were thousands if not

millions of names chiselled on stone

~ plaques on the gate which is itsel f

was back to the van to visit

called Hill 60 which was a key

location in the battles as the side who ~~fP occupied it had a clear

a massive crater where allied tunnelling

companies had dug under the nill and laia twenty tonnes or explosives which

literally blew orf the top of the hill

We were taken to a museum at Hill 62 where there was part of the origi nal

trench network on exhibition We were

told that it gave a reasonably accurate

impression of what life was like in the

trenches It must have been terrible

Part of the trench was submerged in

water and there was slippery mud

everywhere

Original uniform supplies and weapons

were on display in Hill 62 museum and

also some genuine gory photographs

that made us realise the destruction of

life and buildinS that war brings After a short minibus ride we were back in the centre or YpresWe took a quick

look around the cloth museum answered

our question sheets on the Great War and

stole a last wander around the town to

rind some native rood( chipsJAll too soon it was time to go home after a

tiring but very profitable daytrip

PRACTICAL FIRST AID LECTURES WITH

THE BRITISH RED CROSS

We were taught First Aid by Paul

Tiffin of the British Red CrossHe

visited Uffi in our Life Skills lessons

At first we were embarrassed doing

bandaging and mouth to mouth reshy

suscitation but soon we became more

confident and started to enjoy it

An officer from the British Red

Cros s carne to the school to examine us

for our certificate We were all very

nervous

We think that everyone should

have the first aid training because

accidents happen all the time

nutr my brab Tom Bus the recently bereaved widower arrived sadly at the coffin Syrup Funeral Parlour He banged loudly on the gargo yle knocker The door eventually opened and Tom was confronted by an eight foot tall muscle bound man in dark glasses The man had two metal things seemingly stuck to his

neck that Tom could only conceive were trendy fashion accesot~ies

MATHS CLASSES ROYAL INSTITUTION OF MATHMATICS MASTERCLASSES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE

After the success of Professor Zeeman s televised lectures on mathnJatics

Christmas 1978 the Royal Institute organised a series of ten Saturday morning

classes to stimulate and encourage children in the art and practice of

mathmatics Third Year pupils who are mathmatically able and judged to have

potential and interest were selected The classes were held at the City of London

Polytechnic

Last year our school was represented by Nicole Russell Thomas Bentley and

Stephen Parkinson who all gave up ten Saturdays to rub shoulders with mathmatics

professors teachers and other matbmatically minded pupils They were so

bitten by the bug and created such a good impression on the organizers that

they were invited back to participate in Advanced Maths Masterclasses over the

summer holidays Following their success five pupils will be attending the

masterclasses this year It is hoped that Garoline Hughes Karina Cox Micky Kullar

Mark Killminster and Peter Lyle will enjoy the sessions as much as last years

group did

FOtamprth YbV Trif to VrlCS was Sam on the fifth of May when left school by minibus to catch the

Bam ferry to Calais It was very cold

windy on the boat so most of us

wandered around inside looking in

_and buying breakfast

~

At about 10am we arrived to be greeted

a sunny CalaiS and we started our journey through France to Ypres in Belgium On the way we saw several P l ll

Boxes and other structures left over

from the second world War On arrival in Ypres we went for a ten minute walk through the town After this

we were taken to the Menin Gate The

is one of the buildings that Ypres is most famous for as it is

names of all the soldiers

who have no graves and died in battles

in the First World War are carved in

stone There were thousands if not

millions of names chiselled on stone

~ plaques on the gate which is itsel f

was back to the van to visit

called Hill 60 which was a key

location in the battles as the side who ~~fP occupied it had a clear

a massive crater where allied tunnelling

companies had dug under the nill and laia twenty tonnes or explosives which

literally blew orf the top of the hill

We were taken to a museum at Hill 62 where there was part of the origi nal

trench network on exhibition We were

told that it gave a reasonably accurate

impression of what life was like in the

trenches It must have been terrible

Part of the trench was submerged in

water and there was slippery mud

everywhere

Original uniform supplies and weapons

were on display in Hill 62 museum and

also some genuine gory photographs

that made us realise the destruction of

life and buildinS that war brings After a short minibus ride we were back in the centre or YpresWe took a quick

look around the cloth museum answered

our question sheets on the Great War and

stole a last wander around the town to

rind some native rood( chipsJAll too soon it was time to go home after a

tiring but very profitable daytrip

PRACTICAL FIRST AID LECTURES WITH

THE BRITISH RED CROSS

We were taught First Aid by Paul

Tiffin of the British Red CrossHe

visited Uffi in our Life Skills lessons

At first we were embarrassed doing

bandaging and mouth to mouth reshy

suscitation but soon we became more

confident and started to enjoy it

An officer from the British Red

Cros s carne to the school to examine us

for our certificate We were all very

nervous

We think that everyone should

have the first aid training because

accidents happen all the time

MATHS CLASSES ROYAL INSTITUTION OF MATHMATICS MASTERCLASSES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE

After the success of Professor Zeeman s televised lectures on mathnJatics

Christmas 1978 the Royal Institute organised a series of ten Saturday morning

classes to stimulate and encourage children in the art and practice of

mathmatics Third Year pupils who are mathmatically able and judged to have

potential and interest were selected The classes were held at the City of London

Polytechnic

Last year our school was represented by Nicole Russell Thomas Bentley and

Stephen Parkinson who all gave up ten Saturdays to rub shoulders with mathmatics

professors teachers and other matbmatically minded pupils They were so

bitten by the bug and created such a good impression on the organizers that

they were invited back to participate in Advanced Maths Masterclasses over the

summer holidays Following their success five pupils will be attending the

masterclasses this year It is hoped that Garoline Hughes Karina Cox Micky Kullar

Mark Killminster and Peter Lyle will enjoy the sessions as much as last years

group did

FOtamprth YbV Trif to VrlCS was Sam on the fifth of May when left school by minibus to catch the

Bam ferry to Calais It was very cold

windy on the boat so most of us

wandered around inside looking in

_and buying breakfast

~

At about 10am we arrived to be greeted

a sunny CalaiS and we started our journey through France to Ypres in Belgium On the way we saw several P l ll

Boxes and other structures left over

from the second world War On arrival in Ypres we went for a ten minute walk through the town After this

we were taken to the Menin Gate The

is one of the buildings that Ypres is most famous for as it is

names of all the soldiers

who have no graves and died in battles

in the First World War are carved in

stone There were thousands if not

millions of names chiselled on stone

~ plaques on the gate which is itsel f

was back to the van to visit

called Hill 60 which was a key

location in the battles as the side who ~~fP occupied it had a clear

a massive crater where allied tunnelling

companies had dug under the nill and laia twenty tonnes or explosives which

literally blew orf the top of the hill

We were taken to a museum at Hill 62 where there was part of the origi nal

trench network on exhibition We were

told that it gave a reasonably accurate

impression of what life was like in the

trenches It must have been terrible

Part of the trench was submerged in

water and there was slippery mud

everywhere

Original uniform supplies and weapons

were on display in Hill 62 museum and

also some genuine gory photographs

that made us realise the destruction of

life and buildinS that war brings After a short minibus ride we were back in the centre or YpresWe took a quick

look around the cloth museum answered

our question sheets on the Great War and

stole a last wander around the town to

rind some native rood( chipsJAll too soon it was time to go home after a

tiring but very profitable daytrip

PRACTICAL FIRST AID LECTURES WITH

THE BRITISH RED CROSS

We were taught First Aid by Paul

Tiffin of the British Red CrossHe

visited Uffi in our Life Skills lessons

At first we were embarrassed doing

bandaging and mouth to mouth reshy

suscitation but soon we became more

confident and started to enjoy it

An officer from the British Red

Cros s carne to the school to examine us

for our certificate We were all very

nervous

We think that everyone should

have the first aid training because

accidents happen all the time

MATHS CLASSES ROYAL INSTITUTION OF MATHMATICS MASTERCLASSES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE

After the success of Professor Zeeman s televised lectures on mathnJatics

Christmas 1978 the Royal Institute organised a series of ten Saturday morning

classes to stimulate and encourage children in the art and practice of

mathmatics Third Year pupils who are mathmatically able and judged to have

potential and interest were selected The classes were held at the City of London

Polytechnic

Last year our school was represented by Nicole Russell Thomas Bentley and

Stephen Parkinson who all gave up ten Saturdays to rub shoulders with mathmatics

professors teachers and other matbmatically minded pupils They were so

bitten by the bug and created such a good impression on the organizers that

they were invited back to participate in Advanced Maths Masterclasses over the

summer holidays Following their success five pupils will be attending the

masterclasses this year It is hoped that Garoline Hughes Karina Cox Micky Kullar

Mark Killminster and Peter Lyle will enjoy the sessions as much as last years

group did

FOtamprth YbV Trif to VrlCS was Sam on the fifth of May when left school by minibus to catch the

Bam ferry to Calais It was very cold

windy on the boat so most of us

wandered around inside looking in

_and buying breakfast

~

At about 10am we arrived to be greeted

a sunny CalaiS and we started our journey through France to Ypres in Belgium On the way we saw several P l ll

Boxes and other structures left over

from the second world War On arrival in Ypres we went for a ten minute walk through the town After this

we were taken to the Menin Gate The

is one of the buildings that Ypres is most famous for as it is

names of all the soldiers

who have no graves and died in battles

in the First World War are carved in

stone There were thousands if not

millions of names chiselled on stone

~ plaques on the gate which is itsel f

was back to the van to visit

called Hill 60 which was a key

location in the battles as the side who ~~fP occupied it had a clear

a massive crater where allied tunnelling

companies had dug under the nill and laia twenty tonnes or explosives which

literally blew orf the top of the hill

We were taken to a museum at Hill 62 where there was part of the origi nal

trench network on exhibition We were

told that it gave a reasonably accurate

impression of what life was like in the

trenches It must have been terrible

Part of the trench was submerged in

water and there was slippery mud

everywhere

Original uniform supplies and weapons

were on display in Hill 62 museum and

also some genuine gory photographs

that made us realise the destruction of

life and buildinS that war brings After a short minibus ride we were back in the centre or YpresWe took a quick

look around the cloth museum answered

our question sheets on the Great War and

stole a last wander around the town to

rind some native rood( chipsJAll too soon it was time to go home after a

tiring but very profitable daytrip

PRACTICAL FIRST AID LECTURES WITH

THE BRITISH RED CROSS

We were taught First Aid by Paul

Tiffin of the British Red CrossHe

visited Uffi in our Life Skills lessons

At first we were embarrassed doing

bandaging and mouth to mouth reshy

suscitation but soon we became more

confident and started to enjoy it

An officer from the British Red

Cros s carne to the school to examine us

for our certificate We were all very

nervous

We think that everyone should

have the first aid training because

accidents happen all the time

MATHS CLASSES ROYAL INSTITUTION OF MATHMATICS MASTERCLASSES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE

After the success of Professor Zeeman s televised lectures on mathnJatics

Christmas 1978 the Royal Institute organised a series of ten Saturday morning

classes to stimulate and encourage children in the art and practice of

mathmatics Third Year pupils who are mathmatically able and judged to have

potential and interest were selected The classes were held at the City of London

Polytechnic

Last year our school was represented by Nicole Russell Thomas Bentley and

Stephen Parkinson who all gave up ten Saturdays to rub shoulders with mathmatics

professors teachers and other matbmatically minded pupils They were so

bitten by the bug and created such a good impression on the organizers that

they were invited back to participate in Advanced Maths Masterclasses over the

summer holidays Following their success five pupils will be attending the

masterclasses this year It is hoped that Garoline Hughes Karina Cox Micky Kullar

Mark Killminster and Peter Lyle will enjoy the sessions as much as last years

group did

FOtamprth YbV Trif to VrlCS was Sam on the fifth of May when left school by minibus to catch the

Bam ferry to Calais It was very cold

windy on the boat so most of us

wandered around inside looking in

_and buying breakfast

~

At about 10am we arrived to be greeted

a sunny CalaiS and we started our journey through France to Ypres in Belgium On the way we saw several P l ll

Boxes and other structures left over

from the second world War On arrival in Ypres we went for a ten minute walk through the town After this

we were taken to the Menin Gate The

is one of the buildings that Ypres is most famous for as it is

names of all the soldiers

who have no graves and died in battles

in the First World War are carved in

stone There were thousands if not

millions of names chiselled on stone

~ plaques on the gate which is itsel f

was back to the van to visit

called Hill 60 which was a key

location in the battles as the side who ~~fP occupied it had a clear

a massive crater where allied tunnelling

companies had dug under the nill and laia twenty tonnes or explosives which

literally blew orf the top of the hill

We were taken to a museum at Hill 62 where there was part of the origi nal

trench network on exhibition We were

told that it gave a reasonably accurate

impression of what life was like in the

trenches It must have been terrible

Part of the trench was submerged in

water and there was slippery mud

everywhere

Original uniform supplies and weapons

were on display in Hill 62 museum and

also some genuine gory photographs

that made us realise the destruction of

life and buildinS that war brings After a short minibus ride we were back in the centre or YpresWe took a quick

look around the cloth museum answered

our question sheets on the Great War and

stole a last wander around the town to

rind some native rood( chipsJAll too soon it was time to go home after a

tiring but very profitable daytrip

PRACTICAL FIRST AID LECTURES WITH

THE BRITISH RED CROSS

We were taught First Aid by Paul

Tiffin of the British Red CrossHe

visited Uffi in our Life Skills lessons

At first we were embarrassed doing

bandaging and mouth to mouth reshy

suscitation but soon we became more

confident and started to enjoy it

An officer from the British Red

Cros s carne to the school to examine us

for our certificate We were all very

nervous

We think that everyone should

have the first aid training because

accidents happen all the time

MATHS CLASSES ROYAL INSTITUTION OF MATHMATICS MASTERCLASSES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE

After the success of Professor Zeeman s televised lectures on mathnJatics

Christmas 1978 the Royal Institute organised a series of ten Saturday morning

classes to stimulate and encourage children in the art and practice of

mathmatics Third Year pupils who are mathmatically able and judged to have

potential and interest were selected The classes were held at the City of London

Polytechnic

Last year our school was represented by Nicole Russell Thomas Bentley and

Stephen Parkinson who all gave up ten Saturdays to rub shoulders with mathmatics

professors teachers and other matbmatically minded pupils They were so

bitten by the bug and created such a good impression on the organizers that

they were invited back to participate in Advanced Maths Masterclasses over the

summer holidays Following their success five pupils will be attending the

masterclasses this year It is hoped that Garoline Hughes Karina Cox Micky Kullar

Mark Killminster and Peter Lyle will enjoy the sessions as much as last years

group did

FOtamprth YbV Trif to VrlCS was Sam on the fifth of May when left school by minibus to catch the

Bam ferry to Calais It was very cold

windy on the boat so most of us

wandered around inside looking in

_and buying breakfast

~

At about 10am we arrived to be greeted

a sunny CalaiS and we started our journey through France to Ypres in Belgium On the way we saw several P l ll

Boxes and other structures left over

from the second world War On arrival in Ypres we went for a ten minute walk through the town After this

we were taken to the Menin Gate The

is one of the buildings that Ypres is most famous for as it is

names of all the soldiers

who have no graves and died in battles

in the First World War are carved in

stone There were thousands if not

millions of names chiselled on stone

~ plaques on the gate which is itsel f

was back to the van to visit

called Hill 60 which was a key

location in the battles as the side who ~~fP occupied it had a clear

a massive crater where allied tunnelling

companies had dug under the nill and laia twenty tonnes or explosives which

literally blew orf the top of the hill

We were taken to a museum at Hill 62 where there was part of the origi nal

trench network on exhibition We were

told that it gave a reasonably accurate

impression of what life was like in the

trenches It must have been terrible

Part of the trench was submerged in

water and there was slippery mud

everywhere

Original uniform supplies and weapons

were on display in Hill 62 museum and

also some genuine gory photographs

that made us realise the destruction of

life and buildinS that war brings After a short minibus ride we were back in the centre or YpresWe took a quick

look around the cloth museum answered

our question sheets on the Great War and

stole a last wander around the town to

rind some native rood( chipsJAll too soon it was time to go home after a

tiring but very profitable daytrip

PRACTICAL FIRST AID LECTURES WITH

THE BRITISH RED CROSS

We were taught First Aid by Paul

Tiffin of the British Red CrossHe

visited Uffi in our Life Skills lessons

At first we were embarrassed doing

bandaging and mouth to mouth reshy

suscitation but soon we became more

confident and started to enjoy it

An officer from the British Red

Cros s carne to the school to examine us

for our certificate We were all very

nervous

We think that everyone should

have the first aid training because

accidents happen all the time

MATHS CLASSES ROYAL INSTITUTION OF MATHMATICS MASTERCLASSES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE

After the success of Professor Zeeman s televised lectures on mathnJatics

Christmas 1978 the Royal Institute organised a series of ten Saturday morning

classes to stimulate and encourage children in the art and practice of

mathmatics Third Year pupils who are mathmatically able and judged to have

potential and interest were selected The classes were held at the City of London

Polytechnic

Last year our school was represented by Nicole Russell Thomas Bentley and

Stephen Parkinson who all gave up ten Saturdays to rub shoulders with mathmatics

professors teachers and other matbmatically minded pupils They were so

bitten by the bug and created such a good impression on the organizers that

they were invited back to participate in Advanced Maths Masterclasses over the

summer holidays Following their success five pupils will be attending the

masterclasses this year It is hoped that Garoline Hughes Karina Cox Micky Kullar

Mark Killminster and Peter Lyle will enjoy the sessions as much as last years

group did

FOtamprth YbV Trif to VrlCS was Sam on the fifth of May when left school by minibus to catch the

Bam ferry to Calais It was very cold

windy on the boat so most of us

wandered around inside looking in

_and buying breakfast

~

At about 10am we arrived to be greeted

a sunny CalaiS and we started our journey through France to Ypres in Belgium On the way we saw several P l ll

Boxes and other structures left over

from the second world War On arrival in Ypres we went for a ten minute walk through the town After this

we were taken to the Menin Gate The

is one of the buildings that Ypres is most famous for as it is

names of all the soldiers

who have no graves and died in battles

in the First World War are carved in

stone There were thousands if not

millions of names chiselled on stone

~ plaques on the gate which is itsel f

was back to the van to visit

called Hill 60 which was a key

location in the battles as the side who ~~fP occupied it had a clear

a massive crater where allied tunnelling

companies had dug under the nill and laia twenty tonnes or explosives which

literally blew orf the top of the hill

We were taken to a museum at Hill 62 where there was part of the origi nal

trench network on exhibition We were

told that it gave a reasonably accurate

impression of what life was like in the

trenches It must have been terrible

Part of the trench was submerged in

water and there was slippery mud

everywhere

Original uniform supplies and weapons

were on display in Hill 62 museum and

also some genuine gory photographs

that made us realise the destruction of

life and buildinS that war brings After a short minibus ride we were back in the centre or YpresWe took a quick

look around the cloth museum answered

our question sheets on the Great War and

stole a last wander around the town to

rind some native rood( chipsJAll too soon it was time to go home after a

tiring but very profitable daytrip

PRACTICAL FIRST AID LECTURES WITH

THE BRITISH RED CROSS

We were taught First Aid by Paul

Tiffin of the British Red CrossHe

visited Uffi in our Life Skills lessons

At first we were embarrassed doing

bandaging and mouth to mouth reshy

suscitation but soon we became more

confident and started to enjoy it

An officer from the British Red

Cros s carne to the school to examine us

for our certificate We were all very

nervous

We think that everyone should

have the first aid training because

accidents happen all the time

MATHS CLASSES ROYAL INSTITUTION OF MATHMATICS MASTERCLASSES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE

After the success of Professor Zeeman s televised lectures on mathnJatics

Christmas 1978 the Royal Institute organised a series of ten Saturday morning

classes to stimulate and encourage children in the art and practice of

mathmatics Third Year pupils who are mathmatically able and judged to have

potential and interest were selected The classes were held at the City of London

Polytechnic

Last year our school was represented by Nicole Russell Thomas Bentley and

Stephen Parkinson who all gave up ten Saturdays to rub shoulders with mathmatics

professors teachers and other matbmatically minded pupils They were so

bitten by the bug and created such a good impression on the organizers that

they were invited back to participate in Advanced Maths Masterclasses over the

summer holidays Following their success five pupils will be attending the

masterclasses this year It is hoped that Garoline Hughes Karina Cox Micky Kullar

Mark Killminster and Peter Lyle will enjoy the sessions as much as last years

group did

FOtamprth YbV Trif to VrlCS was Sam on the fifth of May when left school by minibus to catch the

Bam ferry to Calais It was very cold

windy on the boat so most of us

wandered around inside looking in

_and buying breakfast

~

At about 10am we arrived to be greeted

a sunny CalaiS and we started our journey through France to Ypres in Belgium On the way we saw several P l ll

Boxes and other structures left over

from the second world War On arrival in Ypres we went for a ten minute walk through the town After this

we were taken to the Menin Gate The

is one of the buildings that Ypres is most famous for as it is

names of all the soldiers

who have no graves and died in battles

in the First World War are carved in

stone There were thousands if not

millions of names chiselled on stone

~ plaques on the gate which is itsel f

was back to the van to visit

called Hill 60 which was a key

location in the battles as the side who ~~fP occupied it had a clear

a massive crater where allied tunnelling

companies had dug under the nill and laia twenty tonnes or explosives which

literally blew orf the top of the hill

We were taken to a museum at Hill 62 where there was part of the origi nal

trench network on exhibition We were

told that it gave a reasonably accurate

impression of what life was like in the

trenches It must have been terrible

Part of the trench was submerged in

water and there was slippery mud

everywhere

Original uniform supplies and weapons

were on display in Hill 62 museum and

also some genuine gory photographs

that made us realise the destruction of

life and buildinS that war brings After a short minibus ride we were back in the centre or YpresWe took a quick

look around the cloth museum answered

our question sheets on the Great War and

stole a last wander around the town to

rind some native rood( chipsJAll too soon it was time to go home after a

tiring but very profitable daytrip

PRACTICAL FIRST AID LECTURES WITH

THE BRITISH RED CROSS

We were taught First Aid by Paul

Tiffin of the British Red CrossHe

visited Uffi in our Life Skills lessons

At first we were embarrassed doing

bandaging and mouth to mouth reshy

suscitation but soon we became more

confident and started to enjoy it

An officer from the British Red

Cros s carne to the school to examine us

for our certificate We were all very

nervous

We think that everyone should

have the first aid training because

accidents happen all the time

MATHS CLASSES ROYAL INSTITUTION OF MATHMATICS MASTERCLASSES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE

After the success of Professor Zeeman s televised lectures on mathnJatics

Christmas 1978 the Royal Institute organised a series of ten Saturday morning

classes to stimulate and encourage children in the art and practice of

mathmatics Third Year pupils who are mathmatically able and judged to have

potential and interest were selected The classes were held at the City of London

Polytechnic

Last year our school was represented by Nicole Russell Thomas Bentley and

Stephen Parkinson who all gave up ten Saturdays to rub shoulders with mathmatics

professors teachers and other matbmatically minded pupils They were so

bitten by the bug and created such a good impression on the organizers that

they were invited back to participate in Advanced Maths Masterclasses over the

summer holidays Following their success five pupils will be attending the

masterclasses this year It is hoped that Garoline Hughes Karina Cox Micky Kullar

Mark Killminster and Peter Lyle will enjoy the sessions as much as last years

group did

FOtamprth YbV Trif to VrlCS was Sam on the fifth of May when left school by minibus to catch the

Bam ferry to Calais It was very cold

windy on the boat so most of us

wandered around inside looking in

_and buying breakfast

~

At about 10am we arrived to be greeted

a sunny CalaiS and we started our journey through France to Ypres in Belgium On the way we saw several P l ll

Boxes and other structures left over

from the second world War On arrival in Ypres we went for a ten minute walk through the town After this

we were taken to the Menin Gate The

is one of the buildings that Ypres is most famous for as it is

names of all the soldiers

who have no graves and died in battles

in the First World War are carved in

stone There were thousands if not

millions of names chiselled on stone

~ plaques on the gate which is itsel f

was back to the van to visit

called Hill 60 which was a key

location in the battles as the side who ~~fP occupied it had a clear

a massive crater where allied tunnelling

companies had dug under the nill and laia twenty tonnes or explosives which

literally blew orf the top of the hill

We were taken to a museum at Hill 62 where there was part of the origi nal

trench network on exhibition We were

told that it gave a reasonably accurate

impression of what life was like in the

trenches It must have been terrible

Part of the trench was submerged in

water and there was slippery mud

everywhere

Original uniform supplies and weapons

were on display in Hill 62 museum and

also some genuine gory photographs

that made us realise the destruction of

life and buildinS that war brings After a short minibus ride we were back in the centre or YpresWe took a quick

look around the cloth museum answered

our question sheets on the Great War and

stole a last wander around the town to

rind some native rood( chipsJAll too soon it was time to go home after a

tiring but very profitable daytrip

PRACTICAL FIRST AID LECTURES WITH

THE BRITISH RED CROSS

We were taught First Aid by Paul

Tiffin of the British Red CrossHe

visited Uffi in our Life Skills lessons

At first we were embarrassed doing

bandaging and mouth to mouth reshy

suscitation but soon we became more

confident and started to enjoy it

An officer from the British Red

Cros s carne to the school to examine us

for our certificate We were all very

nervous

We think that everyone should

have the first aid training because

accidents happen all the time

FOtamprth YbV Trif to VrlCS was Sam on the fifth of May when left school by minibus to catch the

Bam ferry to Calais It was very cold

windy on the boat so most of us

wandered around inside looking in

_and buying breakfast

~

At about 10am we arrived to be greeted

a sunny CalaiS and we started our journey through France to Ypres in Belgium On the way we saw several P l ll

Boxes and other structures left over

from the second world War On arrival in Ypres we went for a ten minute walk through the town After this

we were taken to the Menin Gate The

is one of the buildings that Ypres is most famous for as it is

names of all the soldiers

who have no graves and died in battles

in the First World War are carved in

stone There were thousands if not

millions of names chiselled on stone

~ plaques on the gate which is itsel f

was back to the van to visit

called Hill 60 which was a key

location in the battles as the side who ~~fP occupied it had a clear

a massive crater where allied tunnelling

companies had dug under the nill and laia twenty tonnes or explosives which

literally blew orf the top of the hill

We were taken to a museum at Hill 62 where there was part of the origi nal

trench network on exhibition We were

told that it gave a reasonably accurate

impression of what life was like in the

trenches It must have been terrible

Part of the trench was submerged in

water and there was slippery mud

everywhere

Original uniform supplies and weapons

were on display in Hill 62 museum and

also some genuine gory photographs

that made us realise the destruction of

life and buildinS that war brings After a short minibus ride we were back in the centre or YpresWe took a quick

look around the cloth museum answered

our question sheets on the Great War and

stole a last wander around the town to

rind some native rood( chipsJAll too soon it was time to go home after a

tiring but very profitable daytrip

PRACTICAL FIRST AID LECTURES WITH

THE BRITISH RED CROSS

We were taught First Aid by Paul

Tiffin of the British Red CrossHe

visited Uffi in our Life Skills lessons

At first we were embarrassed doing

bandaging and mouth to mouth reshy

suscitation but soon we became more

confident and started to enjoy it

An officer from the British Red

Cros s carne to the school to examine us

for our certificate We were all very

nervous

We think that everyone should

have the first aid training because

accidents happen all the time

FOtamprth YbV Trif to VrlCS was Sam on the fifth of May when left school by minibus to catch the

Bam ferry to Calais It was very cold

windy on the boat so most of us

wandered around inside looking in

_and buying breakfast

~

At about 10am we arrived to be greeted

a sunny CalaiS and we started our journey through France to Ypres in Belgium On the way we saw several P l ll

Boxes and other structures left over

from the second world War On arrival in Ypres we went for a ten minute walk through the town After this

we were taken to the Menin Gate The

is one of the buildings that Ypres is most famous for as it is

names of all the soldiers

who have no graves and died in battles

in the First World War are carved in

stone There were thousands if not

millions of names chiselled on stone

~ plaques on the gate which is itsel f

was back to the van to visit

called Hill 60 which was a key

location in the battles as the side who ~~fP occupied it had a clear

years

a massive crater where allied tunnelling

companies had dug under the nill and laia twenty tonnes or explosives which

literally blew orf the top of the hill

We were taken to a museum at Hill 62 where there was part of the origi nal

trench network on exhibition We were

told that it gave a reasonably accurate

impression of what life was like in the

trenches It must have been terrible

Part of the trench was submerged in

water and there was slippery mud

everywhere

Original uniform supplies and weapons

were on display in Hill 62 museum and

also some genuine gory photographs

that made us realise the destruction of

life and buildinS that war brings After a short minibus ride we were back in the centre or YpresWe took a quick

look around the cloth museum answered

our question sheets on the Great War and

stole a last wander around the town to

rind some native rood( chipsJAll too soon it was time to go home after a

tiring but very profitable daytrip

PRACTICAL FIRST AID LECTURES WITH

THE BRITISH RED CROSS

We were taught First Aid by Paul

Tiffin of the British Red CrossHe

visited Uffi in our Life Skills lessons

At first we were embarrassed doing

bandaging and mouth to mouth reshy

suscitation but soon we became more

confident and started to enjoy it

An officer from the British Red

Cros s carne to the school to examine us

for our certificate We were all very

nervous

We think that everyone should

have the first aid training because

accidents happen all the time

FOtamprth YbV Trif to VrlCS was Sam on the fifth of May when left school by minibus to catch the

Bam ferry to Calais It was very cold

windy on the boat so most of us

wandered around inside looking in

_and buying breakfast

~

At about 10am we arrived to be greeted

a sunny CalaiS and we started our journey through France to Ypres in Belgium On the way we saw several P l ll

Boxes and other structures left over

from the second world War On arrival in Ypres we went for a ten minute walk through the town After this

we were taken to the Menin Gate The

is one of the buildings that Ypres is most famous for as it is

names of all the soldiers

who have no graves and died in battles

in the First World War are carved in

stone There were thousands if not

millions of names chiselled on stone

~ plaques on the gate which is itsel f

was back to the van to visit

called Hill 60 which was a key

location in the battles as the side who ~~fP occupied it had a clear

years

a massive crater where allied tunnelling

companies had dug under the nill and laia twenty tonnes or explosives which

literally blew orf the top of the hill

We were taken to a museum at Hill 62 where there was part of the origi nal

trench network on exhibition We were

told that it gave a reasonably accurate

impression of what life was like in the

trenches It must have been terrible

Part of the trench was submerged in

water and there was slippery mud

everywhere

Original uniform supplies and weapons

were on display in Hill 62 museum and

also some genuine gory photographs

that made us realise the destruction of

life and buildinS that war brings After a short minibus ride we were back in the centre or YpresWe took a quick

look around the cloth museum answered

our question sheets on the Great War and

stole a last wander around the town to

rind some native rood( chipsJAll too soon it was time to go home after a

tiring but very profitable daytrip

PRACTICAL FIRST AID LECTURES WITH

THE BRITISH RED CROSS

We were taught First Aid by Paul

Tiffin of the British Red CrossHe

visited Uffi in our Life Skills lessons

At first we were embarrassed doing

bandaging and mouth to mouth reshy

suscitation but soon we became more

confident and started to enjoy it

An officer from the British Red

Cros s carne to the school to examine us

for our certificate We were all very

nervous

We think that everyone should

have the first aid training because

accidents happen all the time

FOtamprth YbV Trif to VrlCS was Sam on the fifth of May when left school by minibus to catch the

Bam ferry to Calais It was very cold

windy on the boat so most of us

wandered around inside looking in

_and buying breakfast

~

At about 10am we arrived to be greeted

a sunny CalaiS and we started our journey through France to Ypres in Belgium On the way we saw several P l ll

Boxes and other structures left over

from the second world War On arrival in Ypres we went for a ten minute walk through the town After this

we were taken to the Menin Gate The

is one of the buildings that Ypres is most famous for as it is

names of all the soldiers

who have no graves and died in battles

in the First World War are carved in

stone There were thousands if not

millions of names chiselled on stone

~ plaques on the gate which is itsel f

was back to the van to visit

called Hill 60 which was a key

location in the battles as the side who ~~fP occupied it had a clear

~- and could therefore fire shells -2~---~~~--~~~rll~~F~ stralght into

years

a massive crater where allied tunnelling

companies had dug under the nill and laia twenty tonnes or explosives which

literally blew orf the top of the hill

We were taken to a museum at Hill 62 where there was part of the origi nal

trench network on exhibition We were

told that it gave a reasonably accurate

impression of what life was like in the

trenches It must have been terrible

Part of the trench was submerged in

water and there was slippery mud

everywhere

Original uniform supplies and weapons

were on display in Hill 62 museum and

also some genuine gory photographs

that made us realise the destruction of

life and buildinS that war brings After a short minibus ride we were back in the centre or YpresWe took a quick

look around the cloth museum answered

our question sheets on the Great War and

stole a last wander around the town to

rind some native rood( chipsJAll too soon it was time to go home after a

tiring but very profitable daytrip

PRACTICAL FIRST AID LECTURES WITH

THE BRITISH RED CROSS

We were taught First Aid by Paul

Tiffin of the British Red CrossHe

visited Uffi in our Life Skills lessons

At first we were embarrassed doing

bandaging and mouth to mouth reshy

suscitation but soon we became more

confident and started to enjoy it

An officer from the British Red

Cros s carne to the school to examine us

for our certificate We were all very

nervous

We think that everyone should

have the first aid training because

accidents happen all the time

FOtamprth YbV Trif to VrlCS was Sam on the fifth of May when left school by minibus to catch the

Bam ferry to Calais It was very cold

windy on the boat so most of us

wandered around inside looking in

_and buying breakfast

~

At about 10am we arrived to be greeted

a sunny CalaiS and we started our journey through France to Ypres in Belgium On the way we saw several P l ll

Boxes and other structures left over

from the second world War On arrival in Ypres we went for a ten minute walk through the town After this

we were taken to the Menin Gate The

is one of the buildings that Ypres is most famous for as it is

names of all the soldiers

who have no graves and died in battles

in the First World War are carved in

stone There were thousands if not

millions of names chiselled on stone

~ plaques on the gate which is itsel f

was back to the van to visit

called Hill 60 which was a key

location in the battles as the side who ~~fP occupied it had a clear

~- and could therefore fire shells -2~---~~~--~~~rll~~F~ stralght into

years

a massive crater where allied tunnelling

companies had dug under the nill and laia twenty tonnes or explosives which

literally blew orf the top of the hill

We were taken to a museum at Hill 62 where there was part of the origi nal

trench network on exhibition We were

told that it gave a reasonably accurate

impression of what life was like in the

trenches It must have been terrible

Part of the trench was submerged in

water and there was slippery mud

everywhere

Original uniform supplies and weapons

were on display in Hill 62 museum and

also some genuine gory photographs

that made us realise the destruction of

life and buildinS that war brings After a short minibus ride we were back in the centre or YpresWe took a quick

look around the cloth museum answered

our question sheets on the Great War and

stole a last wander around the town to

rind some native rood( chipsJAll too soon it was time to go home after a

tiring but very profitable daytrip

PRACTICAL FIRST AID LECTURES WITH

THE BRITISH RED CROSS

We were taught First Aid by Paul

Tiffin of the British Red CrossHe

visited Uffi in our Life Skills lessons

At first we were embarrassed doing

bandaging and mouth to mouth reshy

suscitation but soon we became more

confident and started to enjoy it

An officer from the British Red

Cros s carne to the school to examine us

for our certificate We were all very

nervous

We think that everyone should

have the first aid training because

accidents happen all the time

FOtamprth YbV Trif to VrlCS was Sam on the fifth of May when left school by minibus to catch the

Bam ferry to Calais It was very cold

windy on the boat so most of us

wandered around inside looking in

_and buying breakfast

~

At about 10am we arrived to be greeted

a sunny CalaiS and we started our journey through France to Ypres in Belgium On the way we saw several P l ll

Boxes and other structures left over

from the second world War On arrival in Ypres we went for a ten minute walk through the town After this

we were taken to the Menin Gate The

is one of the buildings that Ypres is most famous for as it is

names of all the soldiers

who have no graves and died in battles

in the First World War are carved in

stone There were thousands if not

millions of names chiselled on stone

~ plaques on the gate which is itsel f

was back to the van to visit

called Hill 60 which was a key

location in the battles as the side who ~~fP occupied it had a clear

years

a massive crater where allied tunnelling

companies had dug under the nill and laia twenty tonnes or explosives which

literally blew orf the top of the hill

We were taken to a museum at Hill 62 where there was part of the origi nal

trench network on exhibition We were

told that it gave a reasonably accurate

impression of what life was like in the

trenches It must have been terrible

Part of the trench was submerged in

water and there was slippery mud

everywhere

Original uniform supplies and weapons

were on display in Hill 62 museum and

also some genuine gory photographs

that made us realise the destruction of

life and buildinS that war brings After a short minibus ride we were back in the centre or YpresWe took a quick

look around the cloth museum answered

our question sheets on the Great War and

stole a last wander around the town to

rind some native rood( chipsJAll too soon it was time to go home after a

tiring but very profitable daytrip

PRACTICAL FIRST AID LECTURES WITH

THE BRITISH RED CROSS

We were taught First Aid by Paul

Tiffin of the British Red CrossHe

visited Uffi in our Life Skills lessons

At first we were embarrassed doing

bandaging and mouth to mouth reshy

suscitation but soon we became more

confident and started to enjoy it

An officer from the British Red

Cros s carne to the school to examine us

for our certificate We were all very

nervous

We think that everyone should

have the first aid training because

accidents happen all the time

we were taken to the Menin Gate The

told that it gave a reasonably accurate

Original uniform supplies and weapons

were on display in Hill 62 museum and

also some genuine gory photographs

PRACTICAL FIRST AID LECTURES WITH

THE BRITISH RED CROSS

We were taught First Aid by Paul

Tiffin of the British Red CrossHe

visited Uffi in our Life Skills lessons

At first we were embarrassed doing

bandaging and mouth to mouth reshy

suscitation but soon we became more

confident and started to enjoy it

An officer from the British Red

Cros s carne to the school to examine us

for our certificate We were all very

nervous

We think that everyone should

have the first aid training because

accidents happen all the time

a massive crater where allied tunnelling

companies had dug under the nill and laia twenty tonnes or explosives which

literally blew orf the top of the hill

We were taken to a museum at Hill 62 where there was part of the origi nal

trench network on exhibition We were

told that it gave a reasonably accurate

impression of what life was like in the

trenches It must have been terrible

Part of the trench was submerged in

water and there was slippery mud

everywhere

Original uniform supplies and weapons

were on display in Hill 62 museum and

also some genuine gory photographs

that made us realise the destruction of

life and buildinS that war brings After a short minibus ride we were back in the centre or YpresWe took a quick

look around the cloth museum answered

our question sheets on the Great War and

stole a last wander around the town to

rind some native rood( chipsJAll too soon it was time to go home after a

tiring but very profitable daytrip

PRACTICAL FIRST AID LECTURES WITH

THE BRITISH RED CROSS

We were taught First Aid by Paul

Tiffin of the British Red CrossHe

visited Uffi in our Life Skills lessons

At first we were embarrassed doing

bandaging and mouth to mouth reshy

suscitation but soon we became more

confident and started to enjoy it

An officer from the British Red

Cros s carne to the school to examine us

for our certificate We were all very

nervous

We think that everyone should

have the first aid training because

accidents happen all the time
