THE OLC • The OLC is open at break, lunchtime and after school for help with your school-work and home-work • You can borrow library books to take home • There is a book club, writing club and lots of other activities in the OLC • All Y7 students take part in the Accelerated Reader scheme • Our Open Learning Centre Manager is called Mrs Finch and our assistant Open Learning Centre Manager is called Mr Robinson. • Some students also work as student librarians • You can also buy school equipment here
What if you have an accident or don’t feel well? Then you go to the Medical Room to see Mr Chapman or Nurse Liz.
We have a Medical Room where Mr Chapman is our full time First-Aider, so he is always on hand to deal with things like bumps and bruises (or blisters from new school shoes!) It is important that if you have asthma you bring a spare inhaler to school on the first day for him to keep in his cupboard, (along with an inhaler to keep in your blazer pocket so that it’s near you at all times) Nurse Liz has a room next door to him, and she helps the students who have more complicated medical needs, and chats to students about how to keep healthy.
Home Work You will get a lot more Home-Work at secondary school than you are used to but you will probably get longer time to do it in! You can also go to Home-Work club in the OLC where adults will help you with your home-work! It is very important that you do your home-work to help you with your learning and so that you don’t fall behind in your work. If you don’t do your home-work you will have to attend catch-up sessions and letters will be sent home to your parents.
