Day of Celebration 2008 |
| As published in the 'Mini Manners'
Newsletter, this year the Day of Celebration will be held on
Tuesday 16th December at Stratford
Leisure Centre. |
Local
students amongst top ten in the country.
Stratford-upon-Avon Grammar School for Girls,
its staff, parents and students can feel justifiably proud of their
excellent results from the 2008 summer public examinations. These
were reported in August, but the school has recently received extra
information from the examination boards about top scorers. For the
full press release please click

Charity News: Leukaemia Research.
 |
Sir Ian Botham, known to all as ‘Beefy’,
is famous for his sponsored walks in aid of leukaemia research
as well as being a cricketing legend in the 1980s. At the moment
he is walking all over Britain in different towns accompanied
by celebrities and members of the public. On Tuesday October
14th 2008 he walked from Marks and Spencer’s in Stratford
to Charlecote Park. |
Daley Thompson, Olympic gold medal holder
for the decathlon, walked along with Sir Ian and we were able to divert
them along the school path and round the school's centre lawn.8CP
were in charge of the posters directing him - and most of the school
were there to cheer him on his way. Some of 8CP generously baked cakes
at the weekend and held a cake sale on Monday in aid of leukaemia
research and the rest of the form took assembly on Tuesday and presented
some well researched information about the disease. They also held
a collection after assembly.
All in all thanks to their efforts they raised £180.00. Thank
you very much to all those who contributed - and if anyone still wishes
to add their contribution please put money or cheques in an envelope
marked Leukaemia Research and put the envelope into the letter box
outside the office and we will add it to the total; every little helps.
The rest of Year 8 played quick cricket in their PE lesson to celebrate
the occasion.
