It’s Alright to be Bright! will run from 16-23 October this year. The national initiative is organised by NAGC (National Association for Gifted Children) and aims to celebrate the diversity of children’s gifts and talents, whether football or frisbee, maths or mechanics, literacy or languages; help children understand the value of their abilities; raise children’s confidence in their gifts and talents; and raise awareness of the social and emotional needs of gifted children and the essential support required by their parents and carers. www.itsalrighttobebright.com/index.html Looking for something to do this summer? Have a look at the Sheffield City Council ‘Go For It!’ brochure on: All students who have been offered places to study at High Storrs commencing September 2010 must read the documents in the attached letter pack for information about:
After enrolment all Y12 students must attend on Monday 6th September. Induction commences at 8.40 until 12.05. Lessons commence on Tuesday 6th September. ‘For never was a story of more woe Than this of Juliet and her Romeo..’ We are delighted to let you know about this year’s school production, Shakespeare’s ‘Romeo and Juliet’, at 7pm on Monday 19th and Tuesday 20th July 2010. After last year’s success of ‘The Wiz’, we are performing once again at the City Hall as part of the Sheffield Children’s Festival. The Memorial Hall is a smaller, more intimate space and has inspired us to set the play in the jazz era. Our fast paced production promises a mixture of romance, comedy and tragedy. High Storrs School is renowned for its exciting, high quality productions with a talented cast and this one is not to be missed. Tickets priced £7/£5 (concessions) can be bought from the Sheffield City Hall Box Office, Barkers Pool, Sheffield 1 – Tel. 0114 2789 789. You can also obtain tickets from the school Finance Office from 14th June by returning the attached slip (see below to download this). ‘Good-night, good-night! Parting is such sweet sorrow That I shall say good-night till it be morrow.’
Sheffield Information Link have produced a downloadable document ‘Places to Visit’ that includes places of interest that are free to visit duirng the school holidays as well as those with fees. Visit http://www.sheffinfolink.org.uk/ and search for the ‘Places to Visit’ booklet. Students return on Monday 14th June. All students must see their form tutor and arrange a transition interview. Transition reviews must be collected from form tutors. A2 teaching commences on Tuesday 15th June.
Our BSF rebuild has given us a real chance to expand the ways that we use technology at school. High Storrs now has a stronger focus than ever on using technology to enhance teaching and learning, and also to make the school a more connected, efficient and collaborative place. Our Managed Learning Environment (MLE) is currently being developed, and teachers are starting to use this as a learning resource for students. This video explains what the MLE is, and also details some of the other ways in which technology is impacting what we do at High Storrs. James Cross – eLearning coordinator |
