In children, there is a direct link between how they feel and how they behave: they feel good-they behave well, they feel bad-they behave badly. Some aggression is normal and even healthy (especially these days) and not necessarily bad but aggressive behavior in children can also be a symptom of many different underlying problems.

Our music team competed in the European Music Live! Festival, winning six of the twenty competition categories. The three-day festival allowed our musicians to perform and compete in front of a live audience again and we are so proud of the way in which they rehearsed, participated, and supported each other throughout. They also had the chance to mix virtually with students from the other seven schools, in workshops and the Big Music Quiz.

This week we had our second open evening for students in year 9 who will be joining the Libus campus to study IGCSEs. The evening consisted of a presentation about IGCSEs and the subjects that students can choose. It is now important that year 9 students start considering their options in terms of studying the IB diploma or careers programme in year 12 as well as their university choices and eventual careers. This can be quite a daunting task so I hope that the information provided and the communication with staff and current students has helped students and parents with these difficult decisions.
