Water

 

 

 

Water House have recently elected two new House Captains for the academic year 2011-12. They are Bartek  and Emily - both from Water 6! They are supported by our two Vice Captains – Ben and Nina.  They are available at any time to discuss ideas or issues you may wish to take to the House Council.

Water House Council is well represented again this year with two tutor representatives (reps) from each of our tutor group.  We also have a strong voice on the Academy Council and several representatives in the Health Squad.  If you have any issues you need to raise, make sure you speak with your own tutor reps and they will pass on your concern.

Water House continues to support Water Aid as our chosen charity and students have been finding out about water issues across the world in tutor time. This year we have launched an Inter-House Charity Challenge, to see which House and which tutor group within each House can raise the most money for their charity. Water is hoping to win this, of course!

This year, there is also a re-vamped Rewards scheme, where you can turn the stamps in your planner into brilliant prizes. The more stamps you collect, the better your prize will be! Plus, along the way, you will be rewarded by certificates ranging from Bronze (40 credits) to Double Diamond (280 credits). By the way, you need 3 stamps for one credit!

Look out for Water students around the Academy – they are always the best dressed with blue badges!

Mrs Husband has currently taken her maternity leave, so Miss Durrani has taken over as House Learning Leader for Water. Miss Gibson (Maria) continues to provide invaluable support in her role as Standards and Achievement Learning Mentor (SALM), and Mr Bell is the Student Liaison Officer (SLO) for Water.

We are hugely proud of all our Water students and are looking forward to celebrating fantastic GCSE and vocational results with our Y11s and many Double Diamond Certificates by the end of the year. Swim on Water House!
