All girls who knit or crochet (or anyone who would like to give it a go!) can contribute a small blanket to local Birmingham hospitals. Dr Hayton will donate the blankets to A&E Departments, which will then be given to small children. Any girl who would like to contribute should knit or crochet a strip or scarf (25cm x 1m) or a square (25cm x 25cm) which Dr Hayton can then sew together. Any squares or strips should be placed in Dr Hayton’s shelf outside the staffroom, with a note stating the girls’ name, either by the end of this term, or by the beginning of September. Many thanks to 6H who have already made a marvellous blanket!
German exchange trip to Hamburg
When we were not out on trips, our pupils were attending lessons with their exchange partners in our partner school, the Gymnasium Oldenfelde in Hamburg-Rahlstedt. It was fascinating to see the many differences between the English and German school systems.
