Let's Go Zero!
King's Academy Ringmer has been invited to join the 'Let's Go Zero' Campaign as a trailblazer school. The National Campaign has set all UK schools a target to be carbon-free by 2030.
As one of the leading UK Eco-schools, we are very proud of our eco status and have recently been invited to join the Eco-School of Fame. We have a biomass burner, solar panels, a wind turbine, and a ground source heat pump which combined currently produces 70% of the energy the school uses, in the summer months the school can be completely self-sufficient!
As a result of the recent recognition and the launch of the Let's Go Zero Campaign, The New Scientist have published the following article, below.

Reassurance of COVID-19 letter home
Please be reassured that we do not have a case in the school or any students/staff who have been symptomatic whilst in school. Please see the video newsletter link for further clarification.
Thank you
Thank you to all the parents/carers that have written to myself and my staff to congratulate us on a brilliant return to school.
Student Council
This week we held our first Student Council meeting of the year with 100% attendance. Students are very excited about developing KS3 student leaders. Students were also excited about the launch of the new House System
Lockers
We have asked our students to return all their locker keys from last year as they have had to be moved to be in each Year group bubble. We still have a considerable number outstanding to be returned which means that we are unable to reallocate all the remaining lockers. Please can you help us with this by reminding your son/daughter, who may still have a key from last year, to return it to finance via their tutor asap.
Open Evening 2020
Virtual Open Evening on 1st October and Open Mornings from 5 October to 15 October. If you have any friends or relatives that may be looking at choosing a secondary school with their son/daughter, please refer them to our website for further information on how to book on both events.
Attendance
Thank you for encouraging your son/daughter to come into school since we have been back as this has contributed to our current high attendance figures.
Anxiety

News
Steve Green who you may know as our Environmental Coordinator has decided to retire at Christmas. We are all very proud of the work Steve and his Eco reps have done to make us a leading school in the country. I hope if you see him out and about, that you wish him well.
Have a great weekend
Sian Williams
