Year 10 Parents’ Evening

Natalie McGillivary

The Year 10 Parents’ Evening is on Thursday 23rd March. As in previous years, this will take place via School Cloud https://lymmhigh.schoolcloud.co.uk/. You will be able to book a 4-minute appointment between the times of 4:30pm and 7:30pm from 7:00am on Friday 17th March. The appointment will automatically end after 4 minutes. If you have any further questions, then please contact the teacher via email.

It is recommended that you log-on in advance of your first appointment to check that you can access the school cloud. If you need any technical support, please contact IThelpdesk@lymmhigh.org.uk. I have also attached a guide for your support.

If your child has more than one teacher for a subject only one of the teachers will be available on the evening. Some teachers may have a high number of Year 10 classes. Due to this, they may not be able to see all parents or may not be able to answer all of your questions in the allocated time. If there is a teacher that you cannot get an appointment with, but would like to speak to, then please contact them via their school email address, which can be found on the school website.

Turkey/Syria earthquake appeal

Natalie McGillivary

Please read below for the fundraising efforts Lymm High is organising over the next two days for the Turkey/Syria earthquake appeal.

Tomorrow, we are having a cake sale and a raffle so students may wish to bring in some cash. If you would like to donate any cakes for the sale, students can bring these to S107 before form time. Raffle tickets can be purchased from the school shop (in-person and over the phone) and there are some great prizes, including:

  • Refurbished Lenovo L490 Laptop
  • Family portrait session with Andrew Collier
  • Afternoon Tea for two at Statham Lodge
  • Meal for two at Ego’s Lymm
  • Sunday roast platter for two at The Jolly thresher
  • Voucher from Karl Welsh Flowers

On Friday, we will be having a non-uniform day. If students wish to dress down they need to give a pound donation to their form tutors. Please note that students still need to bring their PE kit in for PE lessons.

We are also having our regular end-of-term Doughnut Day event where students can buy Krispy Kreme doughnuts for £1 at breaktime in the main hall. The money raised will be split between the PTA and the earthquake appeal.

Thank you for your support.

‘How to Support your Child with Reading’ evening – Monday 30th January, 5.30–6.30pm

Natalie McGillivary

Due to the range of media and technology available to students in the 21st Century, it is becoming harder to engage young people in reading. It is a fact, however, that reading proves the master skill of school, and developing a life-long reading habit can dramatically improve student outcomes.

On Monday 30th January, we will be running a short ‘How to Support your Child with Reading’ evening which aims to offer help and guidance for parents, and offer a better understanding of the interventions we have running in school. While this evening is intended predominantly for those parents of students taking part in reading interventions (for whom, invitations should already have been received), we would like to extend this invite to any parents who would like to know more about supporting their child’s reading skills.

If you would like to join us, please confirm your attendance here.
