At t endance Reward I ni t i at ive
The new initiative, which began in January, sees all students that gain 100% attendance in a week
put in to a prize draw. In the assemblies the following week, three students from each year will be
awarded a prize of their choosing. Prizes include, for Year 7: Free Swim pass, Snack Voucher or
Chocolate Bar and for Years 8, 9 and 10: Early Lunch pass or Snack Voucher with Years 9 and 10 also
having the choice of a 1 week Gym pass. In Year 11, just one winner will be chosen, who will have
the choice between a £5 ?Love 2 Shop?voucher or a 1 week Gym pass.

Form Prizes
There is also a chance for the best attending forms to win a collective prize every half term. Year 7
and 8 form winners will be rewarded by choosing a film to watch, Year 9 and 10 form winners will
receive donuts and hot chocolate and Year 11 will win snack packs to take to ALS.

Reward Trips
All Students who achieve 100% attendance in a term will be invited on a rewards trip at the end of
that term. Years 7 and 8 will be going on a trip to the cinema to watch a latest film and Years 9 and
10 will be invited to a Trafford Centre shopping trip.

The ultimate goal, for every student in Years 7-11 is to achieve at least 97% attendance and
therefore will be invited to the end of year rewards trip which will be a trip to Blackpool Pleasure
Beach or Alton Towers and for Year 11 access to alternative trips and the prom.

                                        This week, two Year 11 students visited the Turton Rotary
                                        Club to give thanks for their sponsorship of the Rotary Youth
                                        Leadership Award. In July, Destiny and Saaemah travelled to
                                        Pettypool (in Cheshire) to spend 6 days developing skills
                                        including planning, teamwork and organisation as they
                                        worked with young people from across the north west to
                                        build a mini adventure playground.

                                        The girls gave a short presentation to the members of the
                                        club and presented the President with an honorary Learn
                                        Dream Achieve badge on behalf on Sharples School. Thanks
                                        again to Turton Rotary for sponsoring this opportunity for
                                        our students

Aut ot rader Boss advi ses Year 10 st udent s

Last week, the CEO of Autotrader visited Sharples to speak to Year 10 on his life experiences and to
advise them on the coming years. His tips for success included getting out to see the wide world,
joining clubs and activities as employers want to see more than good exam results.

Good advice indeed!

                              Macmi llan Chari t y Bake Sale
                              On Tuesday we held a bake sale in aid of Macmillan Cancer Charity.

                              The baking was led by Year 7 student Lewis Makin who had the idea
                              to sell cakes in memory of family members.

                              The cake sale raised a fantastic £300. Well done and thanks everyone
                              who took part.

Pri mary School Super Sci ence
This week we welcomed visitors
from The Oaks and St Paul?s to do
some science with us!

Year 2s, from The Oaks, enjoyed a
session on Materials Science
where they made slime and
toasted marshmallows on the
Bunsen burner!

Year 4s, from St Paul?s, learned all
about sound. They made their own
musical instruments and
investigated the sounds made by
different elastic bands!

Macbet h Theat re Tri p

On Monday, a selection of students went to The Lowry Theatre to see a performance of William
Shakespeare?s Macbeth. This new production retold the story of Shakespeare?s classic tragedy
however, it had a post-apocalyptic twist! The students enjoyed their evening which was filled with
anarchy and uncertainty.

Foot ball Report
The Year 9 football team had a difficult draw against
Rivington and Blackrod on Monday in the Bolton Cup.
Rivington took an early lead and Sharples struggled to
recover. Daniel Bankole looked dangerous upfront and
impressed on his first game of the season. Cole Bridge
went close crashing his free kick against the crossbar
and then Sharples eventually found the net with a well
worked goal. It was only to be a consolation as Sharples
crashed out of the cup.

The following day, Year 10 were looking to progress to
the next round of the cup. It was a good performance by
the team with Edison excelling at the back and Matthew
Senior slotting home from the penalty spot. Overall, it
was a good well fought performance but Sharples ran
out of steam towards the end allowing St Catherine?s to
capitalise. They scored two second half goals which won
the game. The final result was 4-2. Sharples should be
proud as they played some good football.

Unfortunately, the Year 7 and 8 game was postponed by Kearsley until the following week. However,
it was fantastic to see 30 students from both years still turn up to football practice in preparation
for next week. Both Year 7 and 8 have 2 fixtures next week as they look to build on their positive
start to the season.
