Message from the Headteacher
This week, CNS held a promotional event at the Forum and it was a real success! The event was really buzzing with both staff and students presenting and performing. During the day there were drama and music performances, sporting demonstrations, 6th form presentations and art displays. We were grateful to be joined at the event by the Guildhall School of Music and Drama. The school received a number of compliments from various members of the public.
The winter weather can often bring a different perspective to life, dark mornings and early evenings, wet and windy weather, children spending more time indoors and increasing distractions (especially for the very young) in the lead up to Christmas. However, it is also a good time to encourage activities such as reading or longer family evening meals as you sit around the table and chat. Tables seem to have magic properties; ask your child what happened at school as they come through the door and the response is likely to be “nothing” but sitting at a table over a meal and the discussion suddenly opens up.
Whatever you are doing, (fireworks maybe) have a great weekend.
