Summer Term - Latest Broadsheet Friday 13th June 2014 Message from the Head This week has been very hot and busy but we are not complaining! In the middle of all this activity the pupils in Year 8 have had the good news of their success in Common Entrance. Together with the Scholars their destinations are: Harrison is off to Our Lady of Sion Aydan and Samuel to Hurstpierpoint James and Daniel to Brighton College Sophie, Millie, Sebastian, Lewis and William to Lancing College. We congratulate all of them on their excellent results! As a Woodard School we should have a school banner. Secretly Eileen and I have had one designed and made in Belgium. At Eileen’s suggestion it portrays Mary, the mother of Jesus, protecting children under her cloak just as this school shelters under the shadow of St. Mary’s Church. The Manor house in one shape or form has been under the church’s protection for centuries. On Wednesday morning I celebrated the school Eucharist and blessed the banner. It will be processed in Lancing College Chapel at the Eucharist on Wednesday 25 June and I hope some of you will be able to join us. It will be processed again at Prize Giving. The newsletter features a picture of the new banner which is a gift to the school from Eileen and myself and also commemorates my 40th anniversary as priest in the Church of England on St Peter’s Day, 29 June. PREP SCHOOLS’ EUCHARIST, LANCING COLLEGE CHAPEL All parents are invited to the prep schools’ service at Lancing College Chapel on Wednesday 25 June starting at 12.00pm. Remember to bring your picnic which will follow after the service.
