Dear Parents / Carers and Friends of Bolingbroke,

This week has been a very special week at Bolingbroke as Ms Sherman and all the teachers in the MFL

department have helped us to celebrate the wonderful array of languages around the world and even closer

to home in Bolingbroke. We have sampled fabulous food, entertainment and had some very special guests.

Last Friday there was a fantastic turn out for the Bugsy Malone auditions. Over 100 pupils auditioned and

really lived up to the Bolingbroke values of being courageous, brave and taking opportunities when they are

presented. The lucky cast list is below but everyone should be incredibly proud of what they achieved. I

would like to thank Ms Breckon, the Music Team, Mr Kalorkoti and Ms Tibbetts who have already done a

wonderful job at bringing such passion and enthusiasm to the set. We can't wait to see rehearsals begin and

we look forward to seeing the performance in the Summer Term. Tickets will be on WisePay very soon and

I suggest getting them early as this is going to be a sell out!

BUGSY MALONE: FULL CAST LIST IS OUT! Thank you so much to all who auditioned on Friday; we were so impressed by all the talent. Unfortunately,

due to the high number of auditionees and space restrictions on the stage, we are unable to take on everyone

who auditioned to be in the cast.

However, there are lots of other ways you can be involved with the show – if you are interested in being part

of the backstage team, front of house, costume/make up or scenery design then please let Miss Breckon or Mr

Kalorkoti know ASAP! Scripts will be available to collect from the Music office from Friday onwards.

LANGUAGES WEEK

MONDAY 25TH - FRIDAY 29TH JANIARY We have had a fantastic week celebrating languages spoken at Bolingbroke and beyond. It kicked off last Friday with

our MFL Assembly; we were fortunate enough to hear a Year 7 group of pupils perform Samba with Ms Breckon

which was absolutely fantastic. They only had 2 weeks to put the piece together and it really made us feel like we

were at Carnival in Rio!

We celebrated a variety of cultural features for Bolingbroke pupils – huge thanks to the following pupils who really

were so brave in speaking in Assembly:

Salma

Wisal

Ariana

Viva

Jessica

Atticus

Louis

Nick

Ruth

Carmen from Ilusion Flamenca performed Flamenco for us; she got pupils clapping in time and shouting “olé"!

The atmosphere she created was very enjoyable!

On Monday, the MFL department met three teachers from Philip

Melanchthon Gymnasium, Meine (near Brunswick), including their

Headteacher, Head of English and English Teacher. They then came to

Bolingbroke on Tuesday, where they had a tour of the school, visited

Year 10 German GCSE in reading group and had lunch with us. We

are forming a partnership with this school so watch this space for

further developments (including trip opportunities and projects).

Ms Crabtree and her team produced a fantastic menu for us on Tuesday, featuring “Tartiflette”. It was

absolutely delicious and gave pupils a real opportunity to sample food from the Savoyard region of France.

Wednesday morning saw team EAL (Ms Smyth and Ms Sherman), alongside the other languages teachers (Ms Jo-

seph and Ms Konneradt) enjoy a tasty selection of breakfast from across the globe. Pupils were keen to share

their stories of where they were born, what language they speak at home and what family they still have abroad

over a croissant and some juice.

On Thursday, Baking Club became it’s very own “La Chandeleur”. Ms Mayotte and Ms Gann did a grand job of

hosting this event. Pupils were given a French version of the crêpe recipe and many followed it perfectly. Ms Kon-

neradt was our star crêpe thrower with Lauren and Hettie having a good go!

Following this event, we had Community Languages Information Evening to discuss pupils in Years 9 and 10

wanting to take a language in their mother tongue. If for any reason, you were unable to attend the event and

would like the resources to be sent out, please email [email protected].

The final event held in Languages Week was on Friday morning for the pupils in Year 10 studying French. Guest

speakers came from Bouygues UK to present a national sustainability competition to pupils. In groups, pupils will

need to prepare an engaging presentation about what they do to be sustainable. Openings and endings are to be

conducted in French and pupils are encouraged to be as creative as possible. We look forward to sharing more on

this with you!

Thank you so much to all those who have both supported and participated in Languages Week. We look forward

to doing even more next year!

DUKE OF EDINBURGH TUTORING: MATHS AT HONEYWELL

By Miss Donaldson

This D of E Cycle, a group of year 10 pupils has been working with a group of year 6 pupils at Honeywell Junior

School. This was the brainchild of Mr Horley, who was really keen to give pupils the experience of Maths from the

other side of the classroom – after all, explaining how to do Maths helps us to understand Maths better ourselves!.

The pupils have planned and delivered topics on a range of subjects – from place value to angles – making sure that

the sessions were purposeful, engaging and, most of all, fun! They’ve really impressed with their enthusiasm for the

subject, and have made sure that the pupils in their group feel really confident with the Maths that they cover. I’ve

really enjoyed watching them grow as teachers over the past few weeks – even overhearing some comments that

wouldn’t be out of place from a qualified teacher in the classroom.

Hilly Bryde, Maths co-ordinator at Honeywell, has been really pleased with the project:

Maths Club has been running since September and has been a real success. Year 10 from The Bolingbroke Academy has

been coming to Honeywell School to deliver fun maths activities supporting the year 6 curriculum. The year 6 children really

look forward to Maths Club every week. Not only is it fun for them but it also supports their current topic; it increases their

confidence too.

“I loved it, I learnt about angles and the game was so much fun" said one pupil after a session.

Well done to all of our Year 10 tutors – you have been a credit to Bolingbroke Academy and real role models as

Mathematicians.

Taking part in Maths Tutoring at Honeywell were: Sophie Alger, Ahmed Ali, Adem Amellal, Sasha Authier-Labille,

Rosie Bishop, Dylan Bowles, Amin Egal, Ariana Farmanfarmaian, Sadag Ilyas, Saad Kchiouar, Artur Kergall, Theo

Rooney, Alexa Scutt-Thomson, Kaydena Smith and Harry Ward.

ENRICHMENT & DUKE OF EDINBURGH

The last day for Enrichment for this cycle is Thursday 4th February.

Next week pupils will be given the opportunity to pick their new enrichment choices. There will be lots on offer

so pick carefully. We have so many amazing enrichments whether it be sport, music or cooking there really is

something for everyone and it’s a great opportunity to try something new!

As well as changes to the Enrichment cycle we also have a new Duke of Edinburgh cycle that will start on Friday

4th March.

MATHS CORNER 9

News from Maths this fortnight

Our Key Stage Three Pupils have all been working very hard on geometry this term. We revisit geometry every

Spring in order for pupils to build up their portfolio of skills – including angle rules and constructions. It’s been

great to walk into lessons and see how their confidence has grown, with our year 9s now tackling some really

complex problems.

Year 10 have covered a real variety of topics – from rearranging formulae to representing inequalities. I’ve been

particularly impressed by their mastery of vectors. This was a topic I myself did not enjoy at school but their

enthusiasm has been infectious and it has been a really positive week for both staff and pupils.

As this is a short term, most pupils will be sitting their post-learning assessments right at the end of assessment

week or the beginning of review week to give them time to cover all of their new learning. Good luck to all our

pupils!

Manga High – star performers

We’re steadily improving our position in the UK rank-

ings, moving from 88th to 59th in the past two weeks.

However, we’re a long way from our goal to be in the

top 10. Please encourage your children to get involved

– it will boost their own learning and support Boling-

broke in the UK competition

Well done to our top performers over the last 30 days.

We’ve got representatives from years 7, 8 and 10 in this

list…can year 9 up their game in time for the next edi-

tion of the Courageous Hound?!

Well done to Susan Hoult – who not only got the

correct answer to last fortnight’s puzzle (97) but

also replied in the speediest time ever for a Par-

ent Puzzle! Here’s another quick puzzle……

I am a special parallelogram. My diagonals

cross at right angles but none of my interi-

or angles are right angles. What am I?

E-mail your solutions to this week’s parent puzzle to

r.donaldson@arkbolingbrokeacademy. Each correct

answer goes into the half termly draw to win maths

equipment for your child (and a treat for you!)

Times Table of the Week…

We’re pleased to announce that log in details have

been updated and all pupils can now log in to

www.ttrockstars.com to either practise on their own

in the “studio” or compete with pupils across the

country at “festivals”. Parents are encouraged to

have a go too – it’s addictive! Have fun!

Top Tip from Team Maths: REVISION

With assessment week comes the inevitable pre-

test revision. Lots of pupils find revision intimidat-

ing – particularly because learning in maths is cu-

mulative and so they need to remember everything

they’ve ever learned! Here are our top tips for

making revision stress free:

Little and often is best. Can your child do

twenty minutes before and after school?

Don’t just read notes – children need to

practise! They can ask their teacher for

practice sheets or look on websites such as

BBC Bitesize or Khan Academy

They should try and achieve a balance be-

tween building confidence with basic prac-

tice and getting used to challenging or unfa-

miliar questions. They can treat it like a

work out – hard questions first, when their

brains are fresh, and then finish on some

confidence-boosting easy questions.

There were some outstanding performances from both teams and individuals in the year 8 girls and

boys teams, with wins in the Paarlauf relay race. But it was the year 7 girls and boys that pushed for

glory. Individual victories in the Vertical Jump and Individual 2 lap sprint from promising young athlete

Amir Sultan-Edwards and team wins in the Paarlauf and 4x2lap relay saw the Year 7 Girls take silver

overall, and the year 7 boys took bronze overall.

BOLINGBROKE GIRLS REPRESENT WANDSWORTH AND GO THROUGH

TO 2ND ROUND OF THE LONDON YOUTH GAMES HANDBALL FINALS!

By Mr Jones Tuesday afternoon saw the first round of the London Youth Games Girls Handball tournament take place in

which Bolingbroke were representing Wandsworth at both U13 & U15 level. Bolingbroke welcomed Chelsea

Academy to our ‘patch’ where the girls were waiting and ready to go.

Both handball teams were made up of Netball and footballers with a few ringers pulled in! This proved to be

an advantage for Bolingbroke as the skills, movements and tactics where easier to pick up.

Game 1 saw the U13 fixture take place. Bolingbroke started off at a higher intensity than Chelsea, and this was

maintained throughout the game with Bolingbroke running out comfortable 15-1 winners. Comfortable

winner’s maybe, but that was due to the attitudes and intensity levels with which the girls played. They gave

Chelsea no time on the ball and were precise and clinical in possession. Great performances all round!

Game 2 saw a tougher test take place. An ‘EPIC’ match in the end which saw the two teams go blow for blow

for the full game. The full time score was a thrilling 7-7 which then took the game into extra-time. The final 2

minutes of the game saw Bolingbroke’s superior fitness and experience take over, and with 2 unanswered

goals, Bolingbroke ended up 9-7 winners! Again, super performances all round!

Bring on round 2!

YEAR 7S GIRLS FOOTBALL VS GRAVENEY

By Mr Brooks

Year 7 Girls Football had their first fixture of the year against Graveney on their lovely astroturf. The girls

started brightly, our strike partnership of Sophie Howarth and Etta Sam causing Graveney problems. A

slick passing move by Graveney led to a goal, quickly followed by another and we trailed by two after 15

minutes. The introduction of Misti Wright into defence solidified us and the team began to circulate the ball

well, building some great attacks. Fardowsa Ade and Emily Dzubiev added energy through our midfield

with Poppy Ward and Georgia Maddocks flying up and down the wings. Ella Howarth commanded well

from goal showing great composure on the ball. A great move between our front 3 triangle of Sophie

Howarth and Molly Cook resulted in space for Etta Sam to take a shot, her powerful volley struck the

crossbar but we were denied a goal. We were not to be down for long as Sophie created herself a chance to

score and took her opportunity with composure. A great fixture and performance from the girls despite the 2

-1 loss with the score line not reflecting our performance.

Year 8 Boys Football vs Southfields

Year 8 took on Southfields in their first fixture since the Christmas break. There was a new look to the team

with a number of new players making their debuts. We were on wide, 4G pitch so the game we expected was

to be expansive and fast paced which is exactly how the game begun. Both teams circulated the ball with confi-

dence with a lot of players taking on defenders with some great footwork. Debutant Addawe Ali was a con-

stant menace on the left wing with his pace and trickery winning us a penalty that he also converted. Despite a

number of fine individual performances from Sunny Balogun, David de Coulon and Eddie Cornwall-

Jones we suffered a defeat.
