Year 7 have been using a variety of (very!) persuasive skills to try to talk Mrs McClure into a number of new ideas for the school including Golden Time for older students, residential trips taking place abroad again (including a ski-ing one), prizes or treats for the house that wins the Shield every term, holding our own Solefield Olympics, more opportunities to discuss current affairs at school and a greater variety of activities for older boys at school. Their letters were well-researched, eloquent and thoughtful not to mention beautifully and clearly argued. Mrs McClure will be going to see the boys to discuss their ideas in their next English lesson to see how we can implement some of them. Watch this space!
