french exchange host families needed
HELP! Host families needed for the French Exchange visit to Ware.
Would you be willing to have a French boy or girl to stay for a week ( 21 - 28 March)? I am looking for homes for one girl and three boys.
The idea is for the French students to experience English family life with you in the evenings, having been out on trips with their teachers during the day. There will be one joint day out which your son / daughter is welcome to join.(see attached letter)
Please email me by 27 January if you are able to help.
Many thanks,
Mrs B Martin, MFL Department

Show My Homework is an online homework calendar that allows students and parents to access the homework that has been set from any computer. Homework can also be handed in online. It’s simple…no password is necessary, either click on the link on the school website or by go to www.showmyhomework.co.uk/thechauncy.
Encourage your child into good habits and log on each evening after school together and you too can see what homework has been set.

Ofsted 2008
“The school provides an extremely supportive and caring ethos in which all students receive the help and guidance they need to do well.” Ofsted came suddenly, worked swiftly and reported promptly that Chauncy is a good school with outstanding features. They were very complimentary about leadership and management and the pastoral care we provide. They described behaviour as very good and the students’ contribution to the community as outstanding. The best aspect, in my view, was that they praised the way our students look after each other, whether as mentors or just as young people in their everyday lives. Thirteen “outstanding” and twenty six “good” grades to build on for next time—possibly in 2013.
