OAK HEIGHTS SCHOOL TERM 2 NEWS

As well as Oak Heights offering exceptional education, we also offer students both internal and external to join Oak Heights Tuition. The tuition centre offers after school classes in order to give children the extra push which is needed in order for them to achieve to their highest capability. An initial test is given before they start which allows us to see what the weak and strong points of the children are and what can be done for them to improve. We work with the students to see which method they respond to and understand best when giving them support lessons.
As well as usual tuition which we as a school provide children, we also have after school workshops which take place for the year 11 students in order for them to get enough exam practise to be confident when taking their actual GCSE's. The tuition centre in Hounslow offers English, Maths, Science, French, Spanish and History after school. These workshops are vital as there is only 3 weeks left until half term which means when the students are back their exams will commence.
On the brighter side at Oak Heights in Hounslow we have also organised many tournaments for the children to also have a break from all the exam stress. We will be having a basketball tournament within the next few weeks where all students participating have chosen their teams and will be competing against one another. This tournament will take place at Osterley Leisure Centre. Other tournaments we are going to be organising will be football and Goals and lastly a badminton event which will also take place at Osterley Leisure Centre.
We also have our school trip taking place after the half term on the first weekend back. This trip will last 3 days where we will be going on Friday and returning Sunday evening. This is an exciting event for all the students as well as the teachers who are participating as there are many different activities which take place. These activities are equally fun for children and adults which make's the trip a fun weekend away for all. This is a good opportunity for all the children to be active and carrying out many activities which will help them improve their confidence and team work skills.
At Oak Heights School in Hounslow we aim to balance out the work load with many fun activities. Students should feel as if they are awarded for their hard work and efforts as it would make them want to work even harder. Children are given the luxury to give us their best chosen places to attend for school trips and we then try out best to organise a trip best fit for all of the students. This helps the students to feel as if they are apart of the school and their intake is vital to us.

We will have an assembly on the last day of school were we distribute certificates to specific students for their good hard work or having a continuous good punctuality. It is important to show students that their hard work is recognised as this motivates them to work harder and continue to perform at a high level. We have many students who have worked hard throughout the term and will be rewarded. Having certificates showing your commitment to hard work is good for every students records which is why at Oak Heights we ensure all students are rewarded.
Seeing as the students collect house points throughout the whole term, it’s come to the conclusion of Red house winning as they have the most house points! They will be rewarded with a fun house trip as a reward of their hard team work to win. We will be excited to see who next terms winners will be at Oak Heights School. As the weather will be warming up we will also have our annual trip to PGL where the children are away for the weekend completing many tasks and activities. PGL is a very active trip as they complete many activities such as raft building and canoeing and so on!
