A Message from the Head
Hello again and welcome to another newsletter filled with great articles about the students of Nailsea
School.
As we ease in to May and can hopefully start to enjoy the longer and warmer days, attention inevitably
turns to exams. As adults, we can all remember how difficult this period is, which is why we try to run as
many lunch time, after school and holiday sessions as possible; allowing students to come along and
spend extra time preparing. This year the attendance by students to extra sessions has been very impressive and hopefully
will ensure good results in August.
It is never too early though to get into the habit of revising and studying hard. Realistically all students should be regularly
spending time recapping on things they have learnt in school. Research suggests that if you revisit a piece of learning
regularly you are much more likely to hard wire the information to the brain. We all know that reading something once and
then not looking at it again until months later only results in relearning not revising. This year we are therefore going to run
end of year exams in each subject for each year group to emphasise just how important studying is and to also give us as
teachers and you as parents an idea of how your child has performed when being tested on the topics covered during the
year. With terminal exams being the only method of summative assessment at all exam levels from now on, it is crucial that
we start the practice of study and revision now.
Finally, good luck to all Year 11 and 13 students particularly in the final exams this summer.
Maths Competitions By Mrs Plaw
Several students from Years 8, 9 and 10 represented the school in
national Maths competitions last term.
On March 18th Hannah Nicoll (Y9), Marta Llobet (Y9), Robbie
Altham (Y8) and Rosanna Wood (Y8) competed in the regional
final of the UKMT Team Maths Challenge.
Rosanna said: “I found the day very exciting and interesting as you
got to think about Maths in a different way. My favourite part was
the relay challenge because it was hard trying to do them really
quickly but accurately and then, once you got it right you had to
sprint across the hall to give the next question to the other pair.
You also got to work with people that you might not normally
work with. Overall the day was lots of fun and a great way of
learning”.
The following week it
was the turn of Year 10
who entered the FMSP
Maths Feast
Competition. Emily
Royce, Megyn Hawker,
Ella Driscoll and
Jasmine Pearson
formed one team, and Thomas Flaherty, Simon Howe, Joe Brown
and Alberto Barcena made up another. In a series of rounds they
worked brilliantly in teams and really held their own in a
competitive field. Both teams really enjoyed the experience and
scored the same total number of points overall. Many thanks to
Georgina Williams, one of our top Y12 mathematicians, who
accompanied the trip and helped out on the day.

BBC Ten Pieces at Colston Hall
Music students from Nailsea School attended the BBC Ten
Pieces concert at the Colston Hall on Thursday 21st April. It
was an amazing event hearing the fantastic musicians from
the BBC Concert Orchestra.
One of the highlights was that our very own Nailsea School
Orchestra played in the foyer of the Colston Hall as everyone
arrived at the building. Nailsea School was the only school to
play and our students did so well, I was incredibly proud of
them.
Our orchestra played: Habernara by Bizet, Horn Concerto by
Mozart and The Hall of the Mountain King by Grieg.
Student Katherine Dumbell got a mention in the BBC
Orchestra Concert as the announcer said “Congratulations”
to the young lady who played the solo horn part with the
School Orchestra in the foyer!
Well done Katherine and all the students who played in the
orchestra. If you want to know more about the BBC Ten
Pieces have a look at their website.
Sports Relief
Students and staff took part in a mega-marathon running
event for this year’s Sport Relief. Those taking part ran
around the school track, contributing to the epic distance
run.
Thanks to Mr Deacon who ran alongside some students
egging them on for support and Chloe Trickey in Yr. 10
deserves a special mention for completing 7 laps.
The total distance covered by students in the school was in
excess of 2,000 miles which would be the equivalent of
running from Nailsea to Africa!
The event raised over £1300 for the Sports Relief cause.
Concerto Winner!
Ann Dumbell, our Head Girl, won the Concerto competition
for the North Somerset Music Service. We are so proud of
her! Huge well done Ann!

Joint Ski Trip
By Mr Mawford Nailsea and Clevedon Schools held a joint ski trip during the
first week of the Easter holidays.
All students really enjoyed
themselves and were a credit to
their schools. Students made
excellent progress, starting at the
beginner slopes early in the week
and taking on the challenge of
the most difficult runs and even
jumping off ramps in the ski park,
by the end of it . The trip was
fantastic and one we are looking
to run again next year.
Student’s View
The trip was fun, enjoyable and I would definitely go on it
again. My favourite part of the trip was the skiing on the
harder slopes and learning how to perfect turns and racing
down slopes.
My favourite evening activity was going out for pizza. I also
liked meeting all the people from Clevedon School and
sharing the experience with newly made friends. Finally I
liked going into the capital and looking around all the shops.
Elin Beaver
When on the skiing trip I enjoyed meeting all of the people
that went from Clevedon and I made some new friends. I
obviously enjoyed the skiing part of the trip where we were
allowed to go freely down the hills and the harder slopes, I
found all of the week fun.
My favourite evening activity was eating at the pizza place
and going to the capital looking around all of the shops. I
would definitely hope to go skiing again soon as this trip was
so good.

A’ Level Recital March
2016
By Mrs Perkins
Once again the A level Recital was a
wonderful expression of the musical
talent here at Nailsea School. The
Flute Trio; Ann Dumbell, Laura
Packham & Alice Vaughan-Williams
played with expertise and drew us into
their beautiful performance of Haru no
Umi. Martha Jones sang Gershwin and
Schonberg; this provided a delightful
contrast to the instrumental playing. Joshua Hayler had us spell bound with his rendition of Clair de Lune and showed
technical prowess with Allegro by Mozart. Alice Vaughan-Williams played with tremendous skill and expression that
captivated the audience. Ann Dumbell played beautifully entertaining us with the wonderful Concerto by Devienne. Anna
Richardson and Jake Richardson ended a lovely evening with their musical, fresh rendition of Lianna Havizs ‘Gone’.
I count it a privilege to be part of Nailsea School and play a small part in encouraging these gifted musicians.

Year 10 Maths Mentors
By Mrs Plaw This term has seen the launch of a
mentoring scheme whereby 36 of our
fantastic mathematicians in Year 10
are assisting Year 7 students with
their Maths. The Year 7 students are
collected by their Maths Buddies
once a week during tutor time and
they work together on specific areas
of Maths that their Maths teachers
have identified as requiring
additional explanation and practice.
In advance of the scheme the Year 10
students received safeguarding
training from Mr Copleston and I also
talked them through the “Mastery” curriculum that Year 7
follow which has a strong emphasis on number work and
problem solving. The older students have had to brush up on
their own formal methods for multiplication and division so
are getting more out of the project than they expected!
I have been so proud of the mature way that the Year 10
students have taken to their new roles. They have been
brilliant at putting the younger students at ease and are
taking the progress of their buddies really seriously. The Year
7 students are really appreciating the extra help and the
response from parents at a recent Parents’ Evening was
overwhelmingly positive. Watching the students working
together really is a superb example of the community spirit
that makes Nailsea School special.

Pour My Bluff
Nailsea school PTA’s
latest event was the
hugely successful wine
tasting evening “Pour
my Bluff”. Fifty
competitors listened
to the 3 wine
“experts” giving their
views on the wines
being tasted and then
used their own
knowledge/
judgement/guesswork
to determine what the
wine really was. After
a close competition
and nail-biting tie break, Karen Farrell was the overall
winner.
Huge thanks to Ms Hitchings, Mr Copleston and Mrs
Shoesmith for being our highly entertaining “experts” and
to Josh Hayler for his amazing piano playing at the start and
during the interval.
Final reckoning has yet to be done but we have raised in the
region of £250 which will be spent on projects nominated
by both staff and students at the school.
The Humanities House Challenge
A Friday lunchtime House Challenge was led by People and
Beliefs staff who set up an Easter egg contest with a
difference. Students were provided with a mystery box of
resources and challenged to decorate their egg with a
historical or geographical theme. Working in teams
students came up with a number of creative ideas from
Abraham Lincoln to a volcano. The winning duo with their
Winston Churchill egg were Ethan Kabot and Louis
Rumbelow and along with the other two members of the
Griffin team Josh Matthews and Michael Vickers they won
valuable house points for Griffin House.
Sixth Form -Application Advice
Year 12 students have been busy starting to plan for
university applications. All year 12s have been to both UWE
and Bristol University to research what courses are
available and to receive guidance on how to make a strong
application. As well as this, students who think they may
want to apply to Oxford or Cambridge universities have
been to an additional conference, and we have been visited
by 2 former Nailsea students who are now at Oxford (Alice
Packham studying medicine, and Annabel Hancock studying
History) who talked through what is different about
Oxbridge, and gave advice on how to apply.
Thanks to Alice and Annabel for giving up their time.

Religious Roller Coaster
7E have been learning about the changes in religion that took place under the successive Tudor monarchs in their History lessons with Ms Heal.
You wouldn’t have known if you were coming or going in 16th century England with the changes each King or Queen made!
To consolidate their understanding of this, the group were asked to produce a 3D model showing these changes in the form of a roller coaster. The students could choose any method they wanted to show these changes.
The group produced some fantastic work and here are photos of 3 students’ efforts.
Ms Heal said ‘I am constantly amazed by the talents of our students when given creative, open ended tasks, such as these. Some of the models could be showcased in a museum. Super work’
Scavenger Hunt Rewards Trip
Students at
Nailsea
School who
were
nominated
by their
tutors and
Heads of
House for
good
behaviour and progress were treated to a Scavenger Hunt
rewards trip based around Easter. This was held at
Nowhere Wood and involved taking pictures of various bits
of nature. Over 60 students attended the trip during school
time and students were also rewarded with some Easter
egg prizes kindly donated by Lidl (Worle branch) by team
manager, local resident and parent Mr Vick.
Bikeability
Bikeability provided on road and off road cycle training to
Nailsea School pupils offering them practical skills and an
understanding of how to cycle on today’s roads.
The group headed out of Nailsea School on their bikes for
the training which is government-recognised, as part of our
Healthy Schools initiative.
Twenty Eight students were involved in the training varying
in age from year 7 to Year 9 which encouraged students to
lead a healthy and active lifestyle whilst remaining safe.
Aspire Programme
Last term the ‘Aspire’ programme was launched with the
Nailsea students identified as More Able and Talented. As
well as lots of opportunities within lessons for these
students to really stretch and challenge themselves there is
a termly challenge set that these students can submit
entries for. Last term the focus was on an animal
behaviours, extending some work that students may have
touched upon in Science lessons. Ben Clasper (8B) really
stood out as having taken real time and effort to find out the
reasons for these behaviours. Well done, Ben!
An extract of Ben’s research is below:
Q: Why do bats hang upside down when at
rest?
A: Bats need to escape quickly if a predator
were to attack. So, if they hang upside-down,
they are already in the position to drop and
open their wings to fly. Also, it is to hide from
predators. Finally, they do it because they can’t produce
enough lift from the ground, so they hang from trees so
they can pick up speed from falling.
Q: Why do hedgehogs ‘self-anoint’, that is,
produce large quantities of frothy saliva,
which they spread over their spines?
A: Hedgehogs may do this at a very early age – when their eyes are still closed. They chew on an object and use it to cover themselves
with their own saliva. When hedgehogs do this, it is called self-anointing. The reason they do this is still unclear but there have been many theories. People believe that it is to cover their scent from their predators. Some also believe that hedgehogs use it as a perfume and use it to attract the females. Finally, people say that it is used for protection from toxins and other poisons.

Maths Inspiration - in Bath
Last term we travelled to Bath for Maths Inspiration 2016.
We were given a talk on ‘Randomness’ by Hannah Fry, one
on ‘Pi, Pizza and the Electric Guitar’ by David Acheson and
finally a talk on ‘Codes, Chords and Combinations’ by Ben
Sparks. This was all hosted by Numberphile’s very own Matt
Parker (Numberphile is a Maths-themed YouTube channel).
All the speakers were incredibly enthusiastic about their
fields and definitely spread their love of the subject to the
rest of us.
My personal favourite was the talk on the Maths behind
music and standing waves. However, we also looked at
topics not conventionally covered in school, such as number
theory and cryptography. It was nice to see Maths as an art
form, not just as a tool that can be used in our everyday
lives. There was plenty of musical entertainment from the
speakers, as well as a tower of pizza boxes used to
represent infinite series!
The event was a huge success and I really do hope that it
runs again next year. A big thank you to the Maths
department and all who helped out.

The Berlin Trip 2016 Ellie Marshall Year 12.
12 History and
German students
departed from Bristol
airport, sporting
coordinated British
Racing Green hoodies
- with sights set on
the destination of
Berlin. Despite
having tackled a full
school day just hours
prior to the flight,
our energy levels
were high. After
travelling a mere
803.3 miles we
landed (surprisingly
smoothly) onto German soil.
The first day of the trip was undoubtedly the most
emotionally moving. We awoke early and took the “Zug” to
the Berlin suburb Sachenhausen, where we faced the
remnants of the Nazi Concentration camp which homed
political prisoners from 1936-45. The camp was full of
personal stories and belongings which truly brought the
reality to light. Jake Richardson said “Despite the experience
being harrowing, I’m unbelievable grateful to have seen
this.” To conclude the day, we went out for a delicious meal
followed by 10 pin bowling.
With one incredible experience behind us, the whole group
were excited for the following day. We visited the Jewish
museum which told the story of the Jewish population in
Germany from the medieval era through to the trials
regarding Auschwitz. By far the most breathtaking aspect of
this museum were the specially designed voids which
represents the absence of Jews from German society. The
memory void contained 10,000 metal faces covering the
floor; they are dedicated to all the innocent victims of war
and violence. During the afternoon we were taken on a tour
of the Wansee Villa, the building in which “The Final
Solution” was established by some of the leading German
Nazis. The tour was rich with information, especially zoning
in on the root of anti-Semitic attitudes. During the evening
we visited the famous Reichstag, renowned for its clear
dome representative of the transparency of the German
democracy.
Excitement was prominent on the final day. Awaking to the
sight of settled, heavy snow, was icing on the cake for an
already memorable trip. Wrapped up and prepared for the
frost, we headed towards one of Berlin’s most iconic
landmarks, The Brandenburg Gate. From here, we set out on
our walking tour of the Berlin Wall which took us through the
centre of Berlin,
showing the divide
between left and
right. This
significant ex-
landmark was
highly influential in
German life during
the Cold War. We
finished the trip at
the DDR museum
which contained
donated belongings
from the East
German society.
When leaving the
museum we were
caught in a heavy
flurry of snow. We naturally took shelter in an amazing local
waffle and pancake house finishing our trip, with quite
literally, a cherry on top.

Headteacher visit to Army Cadets By Mr Hellier
Nailsea School Headteacher, Mr Wade, paid a visit to a
recent training weekend being held by the local Army Cadets
at their camp on the Mendip Hills. A number of Nailsea
School students are members of the Nailsea Platoon of
Somerset Army Cadets. Part of their training syllabus
involves attending camps with young people from other
cadet groups from around the area.
Mr Wade was able to see the cadets taking part in various
activities and lessons. The cadets were able to talk him
through their experiences and what they enjoyed doing
whilst at cadets. Students from other schools seemed quite
envious that Nailsea’s Headteacher was visiting his students.
As well as Army Cadets Nailsea School has students who are
members of the Sea Cadets, Royal Marine Cadets, Air
Cadets, Police Cadets and St. John’s Ambulance Cadets. All of
these organisations, together with others such as Scouts and
Guides, offer fantastic opportunities for young people. Mr
Wade, a Sea Cadet himself in his younger years, recognises
the importance of such organisations.
‘I have always been a keen advocate of youth organisations
as they offer children the opportunity to get involved in so
many different activities, as well as help them to develop
independence, self-discipline, communications skills and the
benefits of team work.’ Enthused Mr Wade ‘Whether
students choose to join the Army Cadets, Air Cadets, Sea
Cadets, Police Cadets, Scouts or any other group the benefits
are definitely there.’
Any student wanting to find out more information about any
of the cadet forces, or any youth organisations, can drop in
to Room 20 and speak to Mr Hellier who can advise on
contact details and meeting times, etc.
The South West Skills Show
The South West Skills Show will be held at UWE Conference Centre on the 5th July. The South West Skills Show will be the largest
employer-led skills and careers event in the South West. The show will provide a stage for young people, and those within their sphere
of influence, the opportunity to ‘have a go’ at a range of work related skills, speak to employers from all over the South West, many
with global operations. It will offer the chance to look at specific careers, talk to people already doing the jobs, and gain a complete
understanding of the routes in to employment or further education.
For employers and sponsors, the show provides a unique opportunity to showcase their businesses and industry to a large number of
local young people, meeting and shaping the employees of the future. For my information about the events http://

School Council— London Trip
Nailsea School
Student
Council
experienced a
thought
provoking trip
to London
taking in the
London Eye
and the Houses of Parliament. Students had the fantastic
opportunity of seeing Home Secretary Theresa May debating
in parliament. This was followed up with a workshop where
the students from Year 7 through to Year 13 were set a
number of challenges to focus their learning on how people
can affect change. Using the suffragette movement as an
example students considered whether breaking the law was
a necessary step in advancing a cause.
Working in groups, students were then challenged to design
their own campaign for change and chose subjects including
the EU and Brexit, changes to examination grading, the
curriculum in comparison to European schools and the rising
price of chocolate.
School President Alex George said “It was amazing to witness
first-hand the parliamentary system at work in such a
magnificent, historically fascinating building. It is essential
that young people are educated about how their country
and their future is governed, so that they know how to get
involved and how to create meaningful change. This trip,
including the excellent workshops led by the tour guides,
was incredibly beneficial as well as enjoyable”
The parliamentary workers complimented the students,
stating they were impressed with their work and made a
point of commenting on how well the different age groups
integrated which is not something they often see. Director
of Learning and Achievement Mr Copleston said “Nailsea
School students are often encouraged to work together and
break down the boundaries between year groups which
provides an opportunity to learn from their peers. The
Student Council today demonstrated a mature approach in
tackling some complex issues and we observed some
insightful opinions from both Year 7s and Year 13s. This trip
will have taught students that there are a number of ways to
get their voice heard and we look forward to seeing the
results of this on return to school.”
