Have you joined the School Lotto yet? Sign up any time on ParentPay or at the Finance Office to be in with a chance to win one of three cash prizes every month and support

the School Trust at the same time.

Finance Office:

Yr 7 French Cycle: Passports & EHIC Cards

If your child still needs to bring in their passport and EHIC card

for the French Cycle trip, can you please check that both items are

in date before handing in. We have had several instances where the EHIC card is out of date - these cannot be accepted and will need to be renewed. The original dead-line for handing these items in has now passed so if you haven't yet

done so, please bring them to the Finance Office as soon as possible.

Unpaid Items

There are a few upcoming trips which are still unpaid for some stu-dents. Please can all parents make sure they are checking their

ParentPay accounts regularly for any outstanding payments.

Music Tuition Invoices

Invoices for Music Tuition have now been sent out. If your child will not be continuing their lessons, please notify Mrs Moyle as soon as

possible.

If you have any questions or concerns regarding the above, please contact Mrs Moyle on 01884 842904 or MoyleL@uffculmeschool.net

Thank you.

Karate Success Congratulations to Will Don (9MITIR) on his excellent progress in karate! In

January he went to Liverpool to try out for the KUGB (Karate Union of Great

Britain) England Squad and was select-ed along with four other members

from his club. He now trains regularly in Liverpool alongside an elite group of

athletes from across the country and has already competed in a ‘Grand Slam’

international tournament. Will also competed in the KUGB National Cham-pionships back in May; he was entered into three categories - individual kumi-te (contact sparring), individual black belt kata (patterns) and Team Kata,

which is a set sequence performed with two others from his club and focusses

on speed, timing and accuracy.

Will's team won GOLD in this event, which was the club’s biggest ever tournament success to date. Finally, he excelled at the Southern Region tournament held in Crawley a few weeks ago. This is a region-al tournament for all clubs in the South of England and Somerset Ryū Club finished top of the medal table overall. Will came away with two gold medals, one for Boys 12-15 Individual Kumite (contact sparring) and another in the Team Kata. He was one of the stand out perform-

ers at the whole event. What an amazing set of achievements - well done Will!
