Post 16 Options Slides – from year 11 assembly
By Mr D RITCHIE12th September 2016
Friday 27th May marked the end of the current Year 13’s time at St. Joan of Arc. To celebrate this, all students congregated at Our Lady’s Church for mass before being treated to a buffet, courtesy of the PFA (our sincere thanks, once again, go to the PFA for helping to fund this) followed by a Leavers’ Assembly in which subject awards were handed out.
We wish all of our Year 13s the very best of luck in their summer examinations and wish them the very best in their future endeavours!
We are looking in to the possibility of running a ski trip exclusively for St. Joan of Arc Sixth Formers. The parents / carers of all current Year 11 students who have applied to come to St. Joan’s, as well as current Year 12 students, have all received a letter outlining the finer details. Please get your expressions of interest in ASAP. Please speak to Mr. Briggs regarding any questions you may have!
All Year 12 and 13 Students are invited to have complimentary breakfast in the Common Room prior to all of their exams.
Breakfast will be available between 08:00 and 08:45
Thanks to Waitrose Rickmansworth for supplying the food and to Mrs Fry for organising and running the breakfast club.
Following the conclusion of the recent election and a series of interviews on Wednesday, I am pleased to announce the committee for the next academic year.
The committee will officially take up their positions in September, but will be doing some work towards next year in the coming weeks, including their first full committee meeting next Wednesday after school.
Thanks once again to all students that applied and took part in the selection process and thanks to all students and staff for their support.
Our year 10, 11 and 6th form students have been invited to join with RMS students on 8th March to meet with a host of employers including lawyers, doctors, scientists and engineers, business men and women, representatives from universities and so much more. No registration required please just visit on the 8th
Year 12 A’level Art students took part in a weaving workshop with artist Jo Atherton.
Atherton is an artist who creates fascinating and playful tapestries using flotsam and materials found from scouring the coastlines of the UK.
She is fascinated by the curiosities that the tides wash up on to our beaches, the history associated with them, where they came from and who they belonged to.
Jo’s work is currently on display at the Artismeet gallery in Watersmeet until 26th February 2026.More about Jo can be found at www.flotsamweaving.com
