Clubs In Lower School Clubs this week I spent some time in the Table Tennis club run by Mr. Cusack. The students in his club are really keen players and have learnt a range of good forehand and backhand shots. I visited the Choir Club where the students were singing songs from the musical Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, which is good preparation for our play on 23rd March. I also spent some time at the EAL club run by Mr. Miles where there was lots of fun and learning as the students played a card game to help them with their English language development. Fun Run and International Breakfast Our annual Fun Run and International Breakfast is due to take place on Friday, 12th February. This is a lovely community event that often involves over 100 participants going for a gentle run together and then having a breakfast. Please make a note in your diaries and come along if you can; we would love to see you there. Reminders
