HOME-SCHOOL AGREEMENT
As you may have become aware, by the 1st September, every school in the country
has to have in place a home-school agreement. This is one of the provisions of
the School Standards and Framework Act. The Act says that such an agreement is a
statement explaining: the school's aims and values; the school's
responsibilities towards its pupils of compulsory school age; the
responsibilities of the pupil's parents; and what the school expects of its
pupils.
You will find attached to this newsletter our draft home-school agreement. I
would like you to read it and give me your reactions. The pupils are also being
consulted through the School Council. The revised agreement will then be
prepared ready for signature by pupils, parents and School in September.
Headteacher
ATTENTION ALL PARENTS!!
Are you enthusiastic and interested in your son's school? The Governing Body is
being reorganised to strengthen the role of PARENTS from 1st September. We still
have two vacancies for PARENT Governors and therefore we are advertising for a
further week for your nominations. We need people like YOU to play a part in the
continuing improvement of OUR school for the benefit of YOUR sons. The role of
PARENT GOVERNOR is an interesting and rewarding one for which no formal
qualifications are required. For a Parent Governor Nomination please see the
attached.
Progress on reconstituting the new Governing Body is as follows:
Congratulations to Rev. Nick De Keyser who has secured a Parent Governor
position through the sole parent governor nomination received by the first
deadline. Nick is currently a First Governor. There is no longer a category
called First Governors and therefore parents may wish to consider making
nominations from the list of First Governors standing down as it is not
considered good practice for existing governors to nominate themselves.
Two teacher nominations have been received for the single vacancy so there will
be an election amongst the teaching staff.
Congratulations to Marion Pardoe, School Finance Officer, who has secured the
Staff Governor position through a sole staff governor nomination.
Additional parental right
In addition to nominating Parent Governors, parents also have the right to
nominate a new category of Governor called Partnership Governors which replaces
the existing First Governor category. To date we have only received one
nomination from parents and there are five vacancies for YOU to fill. Therefore
we are advertising for a further week for your nominations. Partnership
Governors must be from the community served by the school and committed to the
good government and success of the school. The Governing Body is responsible for
seeking nominations for and appointing Partnership Governors. Parents may wish
to consider making nominations from the list of First Governors standing down as
it is not considered good practice for existing governors to nominate
themselves.
For a Partnership nomination please see the attached.
Mr R Terry - Chairman of Governors

YEAR 10 PARIS TRIP REPORT - MAY 1999
We arrived at Dover Eastern Docks at 8.15 am on Monday morning ready to catch a
P & O Stena Line ferry to Calais where a luxurious Carianne coach awaited us. We
left Calais on the coach at 10.00 am French time and travelled on the motorway
to Paris via the Stade de France and Cité de Sciences.
After a three hour drive and a break for lunch we arrived at the Ibis Hotel in
Pantain in North East Paris. Mrs Dukes had received a fax earlier in the morning
which said we had been transferred from a Youth Hostel to a 2/3* hotel. There
was a lot of confusion and we had to wait on the coach for over an hour watching
Red Dwarf whilst the teachers sorted out the accommodation. However, once Dr
Jackson was called we were promptly told we could stay there after all!
We met for dinner, steak and chips, in a restaurant about 50m away from the
hotel. We had breakfast and dinner here for the rest of our stay.
After a bad night, due to a disturbance next door, we met on the coach after
having breakfast. We were taken to the Eiffel Tower via the Arch de Triomphe. We
had the choice of walking up to the 2nd floor or taking the lift. A group of us
walked up taking in the views and the morning sunshine.
After lunch on the Champs Elysées we walked across the river, past the Obelisque
to the Musée d'Orsay. This was very interesting although there was too much to
see in such a short space of time.
On Wednesday we visited Versailles and managed to get caught in the rush hour
traffic. The Palace of Versailles was very busy and rather rushed with everyone
passing through. The Hall of Mirrors was the best part and we also managed to
walk round the beautiful gardens. We escaped for lunch in Versailles, McDonald's
again, but we were hit by a torrential thunderstorm and we were all soaked! We
returned to the hotel to get changed and went back into Paris for a boat trip on
the Seine. This went past all the famous monuments, the Eiffel Tower, Notre-Dame
and the Universities. We were thoroughly exhausted and went to bed after
watching the Fifth Element on the TV, all in French.
We woke up on the final day to see that it was wet and running. We visited Sacré
Coeur and Montmatre where several of us purchased prints of famous pictures.
After walking down the many steps we returned to the coach and were back on the
road to Calais. We stopped for lunch and had burger and chips for the fourth
time!
We caught an earlier ferry from Calais and we were back in Dover by 5.00 pm.
The trip was thoroughly enjoyed by all and we would like to thank Mrs Dukes for
organising the trip and Mrs Gabriel and Mr Herring for accompanying us.

YEAR 10 BUSINESS STUDIES VISITS TO AVO INTERNATIONAL AND SHEPHERDS NEAME BREWERY
- JUNE 1999
Year 10 have been involved in Project Business U.K. for the last seven weeks.
This project develops links between schools and local businesses, with emphasis
being placed on practical learning.
Our business partners have been Mr Andrew Eberlein from Avo International and Mr
Terry Westwater from Spain Brothers & Co., Accountants. Both partners have been
involved in teaching Year 10 the practical aspects of running a business.
As part of this project Year 10 made a visit to Avo International and Shepherds
Neame Brewery. These companies showed an excellent insight into the production
processes used and the impact they have on the local economy.

YEAR 10 VISIT TO BRUNEL UNIVERSITY -
15th JUNE 1999
On the 15th June the Design & Technology Department arranged for fifty Year 10
boys to attend the Brunel University Design Degree Show. The trip to Brunel was
enjoyed by most of the group with many ideas gained for our current GCSE
projects. The exhibits were varied and interesting, ranging from a ladder that
folded into a briefcase to an inflatable hovercraft. The only downside to the
trip was the time constraint; we spent over four hours on the coach to two hours
at the exhibition. It was still an informative experience.

YEAR 12 ANCIENT HISTORY TRIP - CAERLEON & CAERWENT - 23rd June
On Wednesday 23rd June Mr Haines took a group of four Ancient History students
on a one day visit to Caerleon and Caerwent in Wales.
After a 4 hour car journey during which we crossed the Severn Bridge, we arrived
in our first port of call - Caerleon. We first inspected the remains of the
amphitheatre which was part of the fortress. Then we went to the local museum to
see the collection of Roman inscriptions all of which were from the local area.
Then to the remains of the legionery bath suite . The final thing we saw in
Caerleon were the foundations of the Roman Barracks - the only visible example
to be found in Britain. A group of American tourists were also visiting but they
managed to mistake the foundations of four barrack blocks for a castle!
In the afternoon we went to Caerwent which is much smaller than Caerleon.
However, size doesn't matter as we were fortunate enough to meet two
archaeologists excavating the monumental eastern entrance to the Forum Basilica.
We then made a tour of the foundations of town houses and shops ending with a
walk around the remaining town defences and bastions. One of our students was
convinced he had discovered a stone age arrow head which, according to Mr
Haines, was a pebble - hmm!

GEOGRAPHY FIELD WORK
This is the second of three days being spent by year 10 Geography GCSE pupils on
field work. Groups are investigating the impact man has on the River Dour; the
effects of tourism at Langdon Cliffs and the characteristics of Dover's Central
Business District.
In a week's time, 12th-16th July the Lower Sixth 'A' Level Geography students
will be conducting field work. This will include a trip to London's Docklands
and the Thames Barrier; urban transects of Canterbury; the Stour Valley and
surveys of ecosystems.
Dr A French - Head of Geography
CAREERS EDUCATION
Part of the Government's drive to improve education has been focused on Careers
Education and Guidance reforms. This includes the monitoring and improving of
Careers Libraries within schools and provision of extra money to upgrade them.
As part of this, the School's Careers Library was inspected by a representative
of Kent Careers Services this week. The facilities passed all inspection
criteria with flying colours and we have been given the Careers Library
Standards Award. We now qualify to bid for some of these extra funds through the
Careers Service to allow further developments of the Careers Library facility to
be carried out.

POETRY
Nine young poets from 7CH have had their work published in an anthology of
children's verse.
The anthology, called "Kaleidoscope Kent", is published by the poetry magazine
"Poetry Now" and poems were selected through the Young Writers Competition.
The poets are: Nathan Allen, Kenneth Birmingham, Terry Butcher, Adis Dobzardic,
David Harper, Gareth Hewer, Mark Jenkins, Simon Lawfull and Ben Punton.
This is a particular achievement for Adis, who has only been speaking English
for eighteen months.
This is Adis' poem:
Grandad's Watch
It is midnight
I look at my watch
It is my Grandad's watch.
He gave it to me
As a present to remember him
And I miss him so much.
The war brought me to England
But left him in Yugoslavia.
On the back of the watch I feel
The letters, deeply engraved,
"Adusu od deda".
"To Adis from his Grandad".
Mrs S Rose - English Department
HOMEWORK CLUB
The facility of a supervised after-school homework club has been offered
throughout this term. A few boys took advantage of it initially but lately there
have been no takers. The club was set up to help working parents and to provide
a quiet environment for boys to do homework. It appears, however, that there is
no a need for this facility, so the club has now been discontinued.
Mrs S Rose - English Department
MODERN LANGUAGES
There will be help lessons held in French and German during the lunchtime break
on Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays. These are available for Year 7 to Year 10
pupils and will be held in Room 17 commencing at 1.30 pm.
Mrs F Lloyd - Head of Modern Languages
MUSIC
Summer Concert: The next musical event will take place on Wednesday 14th July at

refreshments will be served, included in the admission charge of £3.00 for
adults and £1.00 for students. Please make this concert known amongst family,
friends and others who may be interested. You are warmly invited to attend and
we hope you will be able to join us.
The musicians will also be in action at the Junior Prizegiving on the following
Wednesday, 21st July.
Other Music News: Our congratulations are due to Michael Quinn (12SW) who is the

Ramsgate between 24th June and 3rd July.
Mr R Davies - Director of Music
SCHOOL LIBRARY NEWS
Tesco Computers for Schools: I am pleased to report that earlier last month an
order was placed with Tesco for a computer. Following a slow start ground was
made up during the last six weeks. The computer is due to arrive early on in the
Autumn Term.
Free Books for Schools: An order has also been placed for a selection of reading
books covering Key Stages 3 and 4 with a number of audio tapes. Hopefully these
will arrive before the end of term.
Thank you all, parents, pupils and friends for your contributions, however large
or small, they are all much appreciated.
Mrs L George - School Librarian
SPECTACLE COLLECTION
We are going to start collecting old spectacles to send to Vision Aid Overseas,
a charity which provides people in developing countries with otherwise
unobtainable spectacles. In ten years volunteer optometrists and opticians from
all over Britain have visited nine African countries, as well as India, Jamaica,
Peru and Vietnam to help more than 200,000 people.
We will be making a collection of spectacles to send to VAO during the Autumn
Term so please don't throw your old spectacles away. You can send them in to the
School Office at any time - don't worry if they do not have cases as apparently
VAO do not need them.
Mrs J Luckhurst - School Secretary
PARENTS AND FRIENDS ASSOCIATION
As usual members of the PFA will be helping to serve refreshments at Sports Day
next Wednesday 7th July and any parents who have some time to spare and can
volunteer to help would be very welcome.

OLD PHAROSIANS' ASSOCIATION
The July edition of the association's newsletter will be published soon and will
be distributed to more than 700 former pupils throughout the world. It includes
news of old boys and their continuing careers as well as tributes to those who
have died, among them former association President Alf Gunn who served on the
committee for many years.
At the committee meeting in June it was decided to spend up to £1,000 on the
provision of a computer which will be situated in the Library area and which
will be used by the Old Pharosians' archivist's team on their frequent visits to
the school. The hard disk will be removable but a copy of the archives will be
available on the computer which can be used by boys (and any old boys visiting
the school) who may wish to access the archives. This, we hope, will promote
more interest in the association - and the history of the school - among the
present pupils.
The association's Annual Meeting and Dinner will take place on Saturday 25th
September. The meeting is at 11.00 am, the football match against the school's
1st XI is at 2.30 pm and the dinner starts at 7.30 pm. Any old boys who would
like to attend are welcome. More details and booking forms for the dinner are
available from the school.

ATHLETICS
In the Powell Trophy Inter Schools Athletics Match the combined Year 8, 9 and 10
teams produced some excellent performances to lose to the eventual winners by
one point - The Duke of Yorks School.
Particularly outstanding was a new personal best in the Year 9 discus (1.25 kgs)
by Ricky Stanley who threw 35.86m which is a new outright school record. Well
done to all participants.
Kent County Athletics Championships
Three members of the school competed in the County Championships. Michael
Roberts made a fine effort to win the 3,000 metres. Daniel Trenowden came 5th in
the 800 metres and Ricky Stanley came 3rd in the Junior Shot event.
CRICKET NEWS
On Tuesday 29th June two friendly matches (limited overs) against Norton
Knatchbull G.S., Ashford, saw Year 9 beaten by a very strong side (113 for 6 in
20 overs). Our reply was 75 all out in 16 overs. Year 10 had a comfortable win
in their match at home on a wet wicket.
Year 7 Cricket
Friendly -v- Harvey G.S. (Away)
Year 7 having already lost to Harvey Grammar School earlier in the season
achieved an excellent win in a 25 overs match at Folkestone on Friday 25th June.
An outstanding batting performance by the captain Jonathan Towe who scored 59
not out was ably supported by Stephen O'Brien who made 18 not out.
Competent bowling from Jonathan Towe, Stephen O'Brien and Stephen King kept
their total down to 107 for 6 in 25 overs and this was achieved in 16 overs.
Year 8 Cricket
DGSB -v- Harvey G.S. 8th June
(DGSB won by 6 runs)
Once we arrived at Harvey after a bit of rain their Captain put us in to bat.
With the conditions this seemed a bad tactic although Captain, John Stokes, was
going to ask to bat first if he had won the toss anyway. Daniel Taylor got us
off the mark with a single but with the 6th ball of the game John Mapp was
bowled by their fast bowler for O. Daniel Taylor was then out for 1 (he was run
out). John Stokes was then out for 0. Now we were 3-3. We needed a pair of
batsmen that were going to get us going, and that's what Robbie Guy and Edward
Close did. They put on a partnership of 16 before Edward Close was bowled for 4.
The new batsman was Simon Arter. He was out for 0. The next batsman was Richard
Horsler. He hit our first 4 off his first ball but was then out for 9. Next in
came Tom Bird. He stayed in for the rest of the over. Robbie Guy hit a 6 before
he made a single. Tom Bird then hit a 4. However in the next over he was bowled
for 6. Kitson Keen came in and got 1 not out. Then Robbie Guy was bowled for 17
and Richard Trenowden came in and was 1 not out. Chris Lucas didn't get a bat.
We ended on 69-8.
After a few chicken sandwiches Harvey's innings got under way. Their first
wicket fell when one of their players was caught by Kitson Keen. This was off
Richard Trenowden's bowling and they were 14 for 1. Then one of their batsman
was run out by Simon Arter whose fumble made them run, 16-2. After a few
no-balls Simon eventually took his first wicket, when Edward Close caught off
his bowling. The next batsman was out in exactly the same way and the following
was out for 0. He was caught by Daniel Taylor and the bowler was Edward Close.
The batsman who was still in was bowled out by Daniel Taylor and then their star
bowler was caught superbly by Chris Lucas off Daniel Taylor's bowling. They now
had 2 batsmen who had scored a lot of runs. They needed 16 runs to win off 5
overs. Then John Stokes came back to bowl and we needed a wicket maiden. John
did exactly that. Now we needed to get the other batsman out who was on 17.
Edward Close bowled a ball which hit the bat and was caught by Tom Bird. They
only needed 6 runs off 10 balls but Daniel Taylor got the last wicket caught
brilliantly by John Stokes. DGSB had won an exciting game by 6 runs.
Tom Bird - 8PY
OLD PHAROSIANS CRICKET -v- SCHOOL 1ST XI
Wednesday 30th June
A strong Old Pharosians team beat a weakened school side with an overwhelming
248 for 3. In reply the school team only managed 97 all out.
TABLE TENNIS
The Year 7 8 and 9 table tennis house matches have unfortunately been brought to
an early finish with the gymnasium being placed out of bounds.
Fortunately, although not all the matches have been played in the above
mentioned house matches the league is based upon an average per leg and not
games won basis, so the final league positions are shown below. Teams failing to
turn up gain zero points, unplayed matches where teams turn up the teams gain
110 points.

Viewers to the TV programme Guinness Book of Records may be interested to know
that two members of the ladies table tennis team tried to beat the world record
of consecutive hits in 60 seconds the other week - the record standing at 184
strokes per minute. Unfortunately they failed to beat the record by 18 strokes,
hitting 166. The average number of hits in a minute is also being run on a
league basis and the leagues below show the average hits per minute each team
achieves over the total number of matches played. Again, unfortunately this
league has had to be cut short. Teams failing to turn up are allocated zero
points, whilst games unplayed due to restrictions in the gym are not counted.
