KAR Newsletter - 22/03/24

Dear parents and carers,

I hope you have had a great week.

We have kicked off our celebration assemblies this week, to mark the achievements and attendance within each Year Group. I was delighted to see our Year 7’s engage in this today with such a positive spirit, and it was fantastic to see our school band perform for them. We look forward to the older year groups next week.

On Thursday, we held a special event for our county champions in the Under 14s Rugby 7s County Cup. To celebrate their win, we formed a guard of honour for the team and cheered them through the school, followed by a celebration assembly. This was an exceptional effort against much larger schools, where the girls showed resilience and teamwork to get over the line. We took the time to reflect on how we are a team at Ringmer, and stronger for working together. I asked the students to reflect on what positive legacy they will leave on the school by the time they get to Year 11, and how everyone can play their part. We are therefore very proud to be Ringmer!

I hope you have a good weekend.

Best wishes,
Mr Harvey
