Heritage High School Spring Newsletter 2018

March 2016 NEWS HERITAGE HIGH SCHOOL Do you want to be a record breaker? On Monday 22nd February students in Year 7 at Heritage High School took part in an attempt to break the record for the most students simultaneously taking part in a book quiz. Students from schools around the country joined together to take the same quiz at the same time. Some of the questions were really tricky and the rules were very strict. All students who were in the hall had to be actively taking part and if you left the hall for any reason you were not allowed back in! We all had a lot of fun doing the quiz thanks to some fantastic comparing from Mr Emment. In total we had 138 students successfully complete the quiz. Fortunately no students had to be discounted from our total and all students successfully completed the quiz. The current record is 2,680 people and we will find out on World Book Day, 4th March, if we helped to break the record. A big thank you to everyone who helped organise and support the event, we could not have taken part without your assistance. Be Your Best At Heritage High School we believe it is important for every student to “Be Their Best” and during this term we have launched our “Be Your Best” poster below. There is now an expectation that students always give their best behaviour, best effort and best presentation in every lesson. Below is the new poster to be displayed across the school. Sainsburys Active Kids Vouchers As a school we are collecting the Active Kids vouchers from Sainsburys. The more vouchers we collect, the more new sports equipment we can provide for the students at our school. The vouchers are in Sainsbury’s stores from the 27th January to the 3rd May 2016. If you have any vouchers, please can we ask you to bring them to Student Services where the collection box is placed or hand them to a member of the performance staff. Thank you for your support.
