House RAD We’re a Knockout Event

Dear Parent / Carer 

On Tuesday 9th July 2024, the ‘House RAD- We’re a Knockout’ event will be taking place in the academy. Students in Year 7, 8, 9 and 10 will be partaking in a series of activities on a rotational basis.

  • We’re a Knockout inflatable course
  • CCF outdoor activity
  • Rounder’s sports tournament

The nature of these events is practical, therefore,  students will need to arrive at the academy wearing their full academy PE kit.

The main event students will be participating in during the day is a ‘We’re a Knockout’ inflatable assault course where we are inviting an external organisation to provide our students with an exciting day of fun. On the consent form is a health and safety declaration that is required for all students to take part.  If students have not had this consent declaration form completed by a parent/carer and the form submitted to the academy, then unfortunately they will not be able to participate in this part of the day. This should be completed by Wednesday  3rd July.

The purpose of this house event is rewarding students that have demonstrated good attitude to

learning from last half term. Students should meet a specific criteria which takes into account;

suspensions, demerits, detentions, attendance and internal isolation. If students have not met this criteria, they will be unable to take part in the ‘Were a Knockout’ event and will  participate in alternative activities. Students and parents/ carers will be informed if they have not met this criteria and even if consent has previously been given, they will NOT be able to take part.

If you require any further information then please contact; [email protected]

Please complete this Consent declaration

Kind regards,
