Dear Parents,<\/p>\n
I\u2019m currently away at the IAPS Headteachers conference because we\u2019re all learning too. I will be back with another video message next week and look forward to seeing some of you at the Macmillan coffee morning tomorrow in the Parent Hub.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s also Open Morning for prospective parents, so please do make sure your children arrive at school as smart as always, ready to become involved and show the school at its best.<\/p>\n
Best wishes,
\nNicky<\/p>\n

The session is online, via MS Teams, as follows:<\/p>\n Join: https:\/\/teams.microsoft.com\/meet\/311266251953459?p=yfoAt2m6lQIuzf66JA<\/a> This is a super opportunity to hear more about the trip and ask any questions you may have.<\/p>\n Kind Regards, <\/p>\n Upcoming events at the Amey Theatre<\/strong><\/p>\n 7 October, 7:00pm – How Many Pikachus Would it Take to Power a Lightbulb?<\/a><\/p>\n Join Oxbridge Professor Dr Tom Crawford as he takes us on a whirlwind tour of the maths of his favourite fantasy worlds as featured in his upcoming popular maths book \u2018How Many Pikachus Would it Take to Power a Lightbulb?\u2019. Expect to learn how to calculate the insurance policy of a Hobbit, the blast radius of the Death Star, the optimal way to defeat the Avengers, and who is richer: Super Mario or Sonic the Hedgehog? Dr Tom Crawford teaches Maths at the University of Oxford and the University of Cambridge, as well as running the award-winning \u2018Tom Rocks Maths\u2019 outreach programme. With over 31.4 million views on YouTube, it\u2019s likely you\u2019ve seen him taking a high school maths exam with no preparation, or talking all things fluid dynamics on Numberphile. Suitable for ages 12+, but we recommend 14+ to get the most out of the event.<\/p>\n 12 October, 7:00pm – TRICH<\/a><\/p>\n This is a solo show about living with trichotillomania. You might not know what that is, but don\u2019t worry, I\u2019ll tell you when you get here. You\u2019ll meet a teenage girl with an undeniable secret that no one seems to notice, so she hides in her basement cubicle wondering if anyone will come downstairs. Whoa, did that get too dark too fast? Let\u2019s try this again: TRICH is a depressing super fun show about mental health, isolation, and forging a path toward recovery through humor, vulnerability, and far too many 90s references.<\/p>\n 27 – 31 October, 7:30pm (2:30pm Sat mat) – AOS present: Come From Away<\/a><\/p>\n The show is set around the shocking events of 11 September 2001, when terrorist attacks using airliners rocked the USA. As a result, all US airspace was immediately closed to planes, and suddenly the small Newfoundland town of Gander had 38 international aircraft and over 7,000 passengers diverted to their small airport. The story that you will see unfold shows how the frightened, confused passengers and the townspeople gradually come together and find common bonds that create lasting, life-affirming friendships. The show includes great joy and compassion, new-found love, as well as tragedy and heartbreak. It\u2019s an experience that will lift you up and show the depths of our shared humanity. For this show there is a special under 25’s ticket price, of just \u00a316. Perfect for some of Abingdon\u2019s older students.<\/p>\n 5 November, 7:00pm – NT Live: Golden Boy<\/a><\/p>\nNotices<\/h3>\n
