Head's Weekly Review 25 09 20

Keeping up with everything going on at Roedean.
28 Sep 2020
School News
We have completed the first three weeks of term already, and it is wonderful to see how happy, involved and engaged all the girls are. Last week ended with a Macmillan Coffee Morning, which is an important annual tradition at Roedean, and we are glad that we have been able to adapt this to fit the current situation. Everyone enjoyed a cake, while raising lots of money for this very worthwhile charity.

In other news, on Tuesday last week Sixth Form Classicists had the wonderful opportunity to attend a webinar given by Natalie Haynes, an author who writes about the Classical world. She spoke about her new book ‘Pandora’s Jar: Women in the Greek Myths’, in which she explores 10 women from the Classical world including Pandora, Medusa, Medea, the Amazons, and others.

And finally, it has been wonderful to see the Year 7s enjoying the fantastic weather, while getting up close with the animals on the Farm. They have taken their learning outside the classroom during Science lessons, and others have taken part in Farm Club as part of the co-curricular programme. Read these stories and more in this week’s Head’s Weekly Review.
