The Sandon School Newsletter 6 November 2014 Year 11 Media Studies Students at a Secret Hollywood Film Location In Media Studies one of our pieces of controlled assessment is to make the opening to a thriller film. We each allocated ourselves different roles. I was the director, Kia Tinsley the editor, Lucy Swift the camerawoman and Sophie Swift the actress. We all visited a secret film location in Essex to do the shooting. I was lucky enough to have privileged access to this. The location has been used to shoot many Hollywood films and music videos due to its eerie, post apocalyptic qualities. Hopefully the resulting opening sequence of our film `Missing` will reflect this. We have all really enjoyed producing this piece of work and look forward to others sharing their opinions in future celebration assemblies. Ruth Perry Year 11 NON-UNIFORM DAY We are holding a non-uniform day on Friday, 5 December in support of the Huntington's Disease Association. Students are requested to wear something seasonal or festive! Students are asked to donate a minimum of £1 which will be collected during morning registration. Students should be sure to wear clothes appropriate to a day in school – no fancy dress and no designs that could be offensive to any sector of our community and no spray dyed hair, glitter or face paint please. Trainers may be worn but all other health, safety and security rules apply to footwear and jewellery. Students may, of course, wear school uniform if they wish. Thank you for your support of this worthwhile charity. Amanda Trusler Key Stage 3 WW1 Commemoration Day 11-11-2014 All Year 7, 8 and 9 students will have usual lessons on Tuesday but every lesson will have a WW1 theme. All years will see Richard Knight whose performance captures a soldier’s experience of World War One. SCHOOL TRIPS All letters home to students regarding school trips are available on the parents’ area of iSpace. You can, of course, print these and return to school if your child has mislaid theirs.
