As always it has been a busy last week of the session. Tuesday was bright and sunny, just right for the School Sports Day organised by Mr Greenaway and the PE staff and involving all staff in a variety of roles. Competition was keen, full details of the champions and overall house winner are on the website. The PE Department and Mr Lambert (Sports Co-ordinator) were busy again on Wednesday for the Junior Swimming Gala, another successful and competitive event. Congratulations to all pupils who took part in the various events.
The Awards Ceremony last night was a lovely occasion, it is always a delight to celebrate the many and varied achievements of the Knox pupils. Congratulations to all the prizewinners.
Today the school closes for the summer holiday, pupils resume on Thursday 16 August. The school office will be open during the holiday period and can be contacted in the usual way.
Thank you to all members of the school community for another exciting and successful session and best wishes for a peaceful and enjoyable summer.
This is my last update as I am retiring at the end of the session. I would like to take this opportunity to say a personal thank you to all the pupils; staff and parents with whom I have the great pleasure to work over the fifteen years I have been Head Teacher at Knox Academy. It has been a privilege, thank you and best wishes to Mrs Ingham; Head Teacher designate and the school for every success in the future.
