Spring Term Cheer and Dance Showcase On Friday 27th March I had the pleasure of accompanying not one but two cheer leading squads who were taking part in the Spring Term Cheer and Dance Showcase at the Excel Centre. As we have come to expect at these events, there was some stiff competition from the other teams present. Robert Clack School were there in force, with many more tricks and a really polished performance. St Angela’s School from Newham were also present (our main rivals), and they did look extremely impressive this term. Both of our squads, the JRCS Wolves (who meet on Thursdays after school) and the JRCS Leopards (who meet on JRCS Leopards I would also like to take this opportunity to thank Mrs Davies and Miss Saunderson who Well done to all on your various achievements throughout the week, from learning to lay a table to leading a fellow student through a cave!

Ms Montague OSHL Co-ordinator D of E News Nineteen Reasons for a celebration! 19 Jo Richardson students have been successful in completing their Duke of Edinburgh Awards following the last expedition season. These awards were celebrated at a ceremony at Barking Town Hall on Wednesday evening 1st April, attended by award holders and their families from across the borough. Peter Fleet the London Director of D of E, presented the students with their certificates and encouraged them to shout about their awards and use them to demonstrate vital skills that will be useful in university, college and job applications in the future. Cllr Darren Rodwell, Leader of Barking and Dagenham Council, said that the students were ‘Borough Champions’, and had shown excellent citizenship through their participation in the award. At JRCS we are certainly extremely proud of all those who have taken up the considerable challenge of the Duke of Edinburgh Award, alongside their studies in KS4 and 5. Many congratulations to each and every one, they are: Rosie Dunn, Emily Vincent, Billy Simson, Charlotte Craven, Clara Dikongue, Aderonke Adesenoye, Jay Batchelor, Tomi Adegbenla, Andrew Odame Kwakye, Korede Salami, Salvi (Mohammed) Islam, Vanessa Moreira, Paula Stuomaite, Elizabeth Olabode, Yaseen Lahmami, and Anjolaade Ogunwolu (all Year 11 - bronze award), Stephanie Taylor and Dean Payne (both Year 12 - silver award), and Sarah Hadley (Year 13 gold award). Four ‘Golden Girls’ on Practice Expedition! Congratulations to the four Sixth Form students who completed their Gold Practice Expedition over Easter holidays. Stephanie Taylor and Yinka Egbedeyi in Year 12 and Katherine Pirie and Martyna Kortarska in Year 13 travelled to Trewern Outdoor Centre on the Wales/England borders on 13th April and then completed four days of canoeing including practising skills on the River Usk and River Wye, and then undertaking a two day expedition on the Brecon and Monmouthshire Canal.

Mark settled into the role extremely well, showing good leadership skills which resulted in his peers voting him the winner of the Jack Petchey Award. Mark said “I really enjoyed the course, it was a great experience. If anyone has the opportunity to do this programme, they should 100% do it”. Well done Mark! Mrs Falzon LSU Manager School Email Account Please can you ensure that you check your email account each week. This is important to see if you have overdue library books. If you do, then return them to the school library promptly. Students will receive a reminder email each week concerning overdue books and fines will now be issued to students who do not return library books. Once a fourth reminder is reached, a letter home will be issued concerning the book fine. It is the responsibility of every student to look after and return library books on time. If any student has an issue regarding library books they should see the school librarian. Ms Osland Librarian Good luck Miss Wilkinson!
