WORK EXPERIENCE
Last week, our Year 10 students embarked on an exciting work experience
journey, immersing themselves in a diverse range of workplaces and gain-
ing valuable insights into the world of work. Among them was Sofia Cee-
say, who had the privilege of interning at Dixonbaxi, a renowned global
brand agency. Sofia's experience was truly remarkable as she had the op-
portunity to participate in meetings alongside some of the most innovative
creators in the industry, overseeing the entire process from ideation to the
final product. Dixonbaxi, known for designing logos for
world-famous campaigns, welcomed Sofia with open
arms, treating her like a member of their own team. To top
it all off, they surprised her with a delightful Dixonbaxi
goody bag as a token of appreciation. Sofia's time at Dix-
onbaxi was undoubtedly inspiring and unforgettable.
SPORTS DAY
A massive thank you for everyone's support in making yesterday's
sports day so successful. There is a lot that goes on behind the scenes

The feedback from the staff at Finsbury park was wonderful, he was so
impressed with our students' excellent behaviour and how we left the
track so tidy!

IDENTITY DAY
Thursday was non-uniform day, when some students
came to school in their beautiful national costumes. It
was wonderful to celebrate the diversity of culture in
the EGA community, and also raise money for Unicef.

MOBILE PHONES IN SCHOOL– SEPTEMBER
Following on from my letter sent earlier this year, I want to remind parents and stu-
dents about the changes which will be introduced in September
Students will be given their own mobile phone pouch on the first day of term
which they need to keep safe for the duration of their school life at EGA. They
will be able to take this home each day and will need to lock their phone in their
pouch before they enter the school premises. This makes the phone unavailable
for them to use during the school day
When students arrive at school, they must have placed their phone in their
pouch. This will be checked by staff on the gates. Students will not be able to en-
ter the school site until this has been done
Phone pouches will be double checked during morning tutor time every day
Sensors at the gates will automatically unlock the pouch when they leave the
school site so it is immediately available to them once they have finished
school.
If you do need to urgently contact your child during the day, this can be done by con-
tacting reception and they will be able to pass a message on or ask the pastoral
teams to support you.
I will be providing more detail over the Summer so look out for information included
with Ms Beagley’s information pack which gives details of all you need for a suc-
cessful start to the year

CHEFS IN SCHOOLS ANNIVERSARY
Last Thursday Bruno, our new Chef, along with his team sup-
ported ‘Chefs In Schools’ five year anniversary event held at
EGA School.
The event was a great success and enjoyed by all.
Chefs in Schools' vision is to employ professional chefs to
improve the quality of school meals whilst educating and in-
spiring children about the benefits of cooking their own food
from scratch. EGA is proud to provide nutritious,
well balanced value-for-money meals to our students every
day in term.
