Easter Holidays Update

Dear Parents, carers and Nobelians,

As you know tomorrow we would have finished at lunch time ready for the start of the Easter holidays. Even though so much has changed in the last couple of weeks, we still want you all to enjoy a break over Easter and so no classwork will be set from Monday 7 April to Friday 17 April. Normal lesson work will be set again from Monday 20 April.

Whilst the holidays would normally be a time for going out, seeing friends and enjoying (hopefully) some better Spring weather, we do appreciate that the next two weeks may well be quite a challenge for families who have to balance parents working from home, children cooped up in the house and the threat of boredom. Therefore we have created a booklet of fun optional activities that you can dip into as much or as little as you want in order to help you enjoy your time off. The booklet can be accessed from the link to the right on this page (scroll down on a mobile device). Some activities ask you to refer to more detailed instructions which will be posted on Show My Homework from Monday, just because the files are too big to go into the booklet, but please remember that these are optional activities, not part of your regular curriculum.

We hope that everyone is able to enjoy some family time over the Easter break and that you all stay well and keep safe.

Update From The Headteacher 31/03/2020

Dear parents, carers and Nobelians,

I think we would all agree that these are very challenging times. I pay tribute to all of you who are still going to work keeping our essential services going including our wonderful staff, many of whom supervise vulnerable students and those whose parents are engaged in essential work.
Our whole school community has responded in typical Nobelian style and we should like to pay tribute to all our staff who continue to support all our students by setting work and giving regular feedback. Our year heads and senior staff can still be contacted in the usual way.
Obviously there are doctors and nurses doing really valiant work, but our school contributes to the national emergency in a smaller but albeit significant way.
We ask that you continue to encourage all our students to complete set work, it’s vital they don’t fall behind in their studies.
Take care and stay safe
