Bronte School

Headmaster’s Newsletter 50

23 October 2015

Time simply ran away when this morning I

started on minor tweaks needed to convertmy locks to an Elvis look-alike, but while my

own top remained unchanged, there were

some completely splendid, totally weird

and wonderful creations walking through

the gates for Bronte’s annual Bad Hair Day.

Bronte Art

The creations reflected the artistic talents

of our children (and maybe just a little bitof parents too!) and these are also

demonstrated in a wonderful range of art

works being undertaken by Mrs Britton’s 

Year 4 classes.

Parent’s Meetings

It was a week of evening parents’  events.

Tuesday and Wednesday evenings were

devoted to parents’  meetings with class

teachers , and on Thursday Year 4 and 5

parents gathered for a briefing and Q & A

session with Mrs Wood about “Life  After

Bronte” - the pathway to senior school.

Year 1 & Year 2 London Aquarium Trip

Years 1 and 2 had a fishy day on Monday, as

they journeyed to London’s  South Bank for

a visit to the London Aquarium. Many

thanks to Mrs Russell, Mrs Dhariwal, Mrs

Kaur, Ms Shand and Mrs Lockyer for

accompanying the staff for the encounters

with all sorts of marine life.
