Hitchin Girls’ School
girls have received certificates throughout the year for keeping
a clean Behaviour for Learning record. I am very proud of the
girls in Jewel House and I would dearly like to see their efforts
and conduct recognised by winning
the ‘fish and chip’ lunch.
SPORTS NEWS: Congratulations
and thanks to all those who have
taken part in our recent Sports’ Day,
and in various House sporting events
throughout the year. Firstly
congratulations to 9J, who have won
both the Year 9 Rounders and Tennis Leagues this year, and to
7J who came first in the Year 7 Sports’ Day, and 2nd in the
Netball and Hockey House League. Special congratulations
go to the Year 7 relay team, who set a new school record for
the 4x100m relay on Sports’ day. The team members were
Synovia Green, Molly Beard, Hettie Inniss and Georie
Felstead. Well done girls. Synovia has also been selected to
run in the North Hertfordshire Athletics team. Mrs. Edwards
has said Synovia is the fastest runner she has taught since
teaching Synovia’s mum!
LITTLE GEMS: It continues to give me much pleasure to read
of all your achievements both inside and outside school.
Remember, you do not have to be an Olympic Gold
medallist to have achieved something worth shouting about.
NEW PREFECTS: I am very pleased to officially welcome
our Prefect body for September 2013. I very much look
forward to working with them all and watching their
contributions to the success of Jewel House. I must also
thank the out-going prefect body who under the leadership
of Georgia Tomkins have supported both the pupils and
staff of Jewel House. I hope experiences they have gained
in their roles will prove valuable to their futures ahead.
As we say goodbye to our Year 13, we must also say goodbye
to their Tutor! Dr. Logie has supported her form for the past
seven years in a very caring and professional manner. I wish
her much enjoyment and fulfilment in her retirement.
It has been a wonderful and very rewarding year being
your Head of House. I could not, of course, support any of
you without my team around me, and so my gratitude and
thanks must also go to the wonderful Jewel House Tutors. I

TERESA HOUSE NEWS
It has been my first year as Head of Teresa House and I have
been so impressed with all your efforts. I would like to take this
opportunity to publicly thank your Tutors for all their hard work
in helping all of you achieve the
very best that you can.
Sports Day and Enterprise:
Congratulations on a fantastic
day - your sporting efforts and
Enterprise stalls were fabulous!
Our sporting champions include
Emily Saunders in 8T, Emma
Saunders and Ellie Mann in 9T.
Teresa House representatives in the Year 11 team performed
brilliantly. Special congratulations to Fran Maydom, Alice
Sunderland and Caroline Willis who won their events.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank the outgoing
Teresa House prefect team for their considerable efforts over
the course of the year. Their support and hard work have
been much appreciated and the Teresa students further
down the school have benefitted greatly from their guidance
and expertise. You are all Teresa Stars!
We welcome the incoming prefect team and look forward
to sharing in their exciting ideas over the coming year.
SUPPORTING OUR SPONSORED CHILD
This term we sent a parcel to our sponsored child, Aracele.
No doubt she will enjoy all the lovely things you gathered
for her. Thank you especially to Natasha Kumar for sending
the parcel on behalf of Teresa House.
Farewell...but not goodbye, we would like to wish Miss O-
Reilly well in her secondment to India next academic year
where she will be teaching in a school and also training
teachers. We look forward to hearing about life in an Indian
school when she returns to us.
Have a restful and enjoyable summer break and I look
forward to welcoming you back in September.
