WESTFIELD WEEKLY NEWS Term: 3 Issue: 24

20th July 2018

This is Westfield School Values Tree. In September it was bare but now it is very full!! Students have been working towards earning leaves by demonstrating our school values such as kindness, courage, maturi-ty, empathy and hard work, to name but a few. It is fantastic to see our school values

represented across the year in such a beautiful way. Well done everyone.

Hampton Court July 17th

Key stages 1-4 enjoyed a day at Hampton Court Gardens. We wandered through the maze, looked at beautiful gardens, tried some swings and zip wire as well as enjoyed the well deserved ice cream. Well done to all, thanks to our hosts, and we highly recommend a visit if you haven’t been.

6TH FORM LEAVERS Westfield 6th form bid a fond farewell to Joe, Kiran and Tia this year, some of whom have been with us for a considerable time. Leavers enjoyed a lunch tailored to their favourite foods shared by their friends, family and staff on the 6

th form courtyard.

Leaver’s hoodies, photos and personalised gifts were presented to the students as mementos of their time with us. Westfield staff, pupils and governors, and friends wish all leavers every success in

their future endeavours.

Other leavers Some times students leave us to move on to new schools. This year we are also

saying goodbye to Imani and George, both of whom are moving to different schools. We have known them both for a long time, and are all sad to see them

leave. However, we have had fun celebrating their success, and wish them all the best for their future.
