The mercury is rising & we want to keep our whole community safe with a couple of small changes this week: 
- Early finish: on Wednesday and Thursday the school day will be compressed so students can leave at 2.10pm
- Relaxed uniform: students may untuck their shirts or wear PE kit to keep cool
We have shared hot weather tips and advice with students as well as raising their awareness of the risks of overheating. At school we are managing the temperature of inside space as best we can, adjusting PE classes to reduce intensity and making indoor space available at break and lunch so pupils can avoid the sun. 

Stay Cool! 🥤🧴👒 #sunsafe #staycool #heatwave #waldegraveschool #enjoyachieveempower
Our Year 12 German and History students have arrived in Berlin today and have already set off on a walking tour around the key sights of the city. They started with the Siegessäule or Victory Tower, a 67-meter-tall monument located in the center of the Tiergarten park - the perfect place to cool off! It is crowned by a striking, golden bronze statue of Victoria, the Roman goddess of victory, affectionately nicknamed “Goldelse” (Golden Elsie) by locals. #Berlin #goldelse #ichliebeberlin #waldegraveschool #enjoyachieveempower
Today we kicked off our three week Summer Teaching Internship Programme. Over the next few weeks these graduates will be getting an insight into what it would be like to be a teacher and getting some classroom experience, and this term is focused on STEM and language subjects. We hope they have a great time and this course confirms whether a teaching career is the right path for them.
