Good morning, from LCS.
My first update of this half-term includes brief items on:
Eid
Free activity sessions from Sporting Communities
Extra-Curricular Activities
Term Dates
Eid
With Eid al-Adha falling on Friday 6th June, we will authorise 1 day of absence as Religious Observance, for students celebrating this festival. For this absence to be authorised, a form must be completed and returned by the end of Thursday 5th June.
As in the past, 1 school day of absence only will be authorised.
For students in Year 11 and Year 13, any GCSE and/or A Level exams on 6th June will go ahead, as these are formal public exams and dates/times of exams are out of the schools’ control. Students with exams on 6th June must attend for these.
A separate email has been sent to all parents/carers with the link to the Absence Request Form, but I have attached the link again, below, for any parents/carers who have not seen the separate message.

The sessions are open for young people aged 8-16. All you have to do is complete a consent form prior to arriving; the link to this form is below:

Extra-Curricular Activities
As I mentioned in my previous email update, we would like to encourage as many students as possible to take part in one of our extra-curricular activities and clubs this half-term, particularly if they have not done so in the past.
Details of all activities and clubs are on our school website, at the address below.

Term Dates
This half-term is the final one of the academic year, but at 8 weeks is also the longest. Term will finish on Friday 25th July, at the earlier time of 1-40pm.
To help parents/carers plan ahead for future holidays, future term dates can be found on our school website, at the address below:

Thank you for your continued support of our school, our students and our staff.
Keep safe.
