Greetings from the World - A Primary School Languages Cluster
On Thursday 10th December, primary schools from West Swindon came down to Greendown's Drama Studio to get into the festive spirit.
Songs were sung in both French and English.
Oliver Tompkins, Tregoze and Peatmoor were amazing and sung beautifully and the performances were stunning.
Year 8 bloggers who had a partnership with the primary schools were there to say hi to the pupils they comment for.
The bloggers were extremely braves and sung a song in French called 'Nations United at Christmas!'

Gifted and Talented Day
On the 10th December, 12 pupils from Greendown went to Nova Hreod to take part in a competition between many schools around Swindon involving many different subjects including maths and English.
They all had to plan a rescue, write a poem to perform, test reflexes and many other fascinating activities.
If you won these, points would be awarded. Greendown did fantastically well and came first!
Congratulations to everyone who participated!

Yr 11 mock exams
Yr 11's are getting very nervous because they will be getting their mock exam results next Tuesday.
We are sure that they have been working hard on their exams all week making sure they will get good results. People have taken the respect by being silent and considerate so the year 11's can concentrate on their exams.
G-Mag members congratulate all of you that now you can relax and look forward to seeing your results.

Year 9 Cadbury trip IMPORTANT note!
Hello everyone! Just a quick note to remind you all that if you would like to go on the Cadbury world trip, go and see Mrs Al-Hassini for a letter as at the moment there aren't enough people to go, and the trip is in fear of being canceled! So if your in year 9 and want to have a chocolate filled day, get to Mrs Al-Hassini as soon as possible!
Cadbury world trip review
Last Thursday some chocolate loving year 9’s went on a science trip to Cadbury world. We were greeted by free chocolate (and melted chocolate (and marshmallows in mine!) In the essence production near the end). Also we learnt a lot of chocolaty knowledge from the classroom part of the day, and got to buy some chocolate and gifts from the Cadbury shop! All in all it was a great day and I would definitely go back again!

How to dress to impress for boys!
This Winter the boys can wear the following items of clothing for the best impressions!
- Jeans! As they go with everything, so these are a must!
- Hoodies! we know they re popular but they keep you warm and look stylish with jeans!
- Or... Jumpers! as these look good underneath a zip up hoodie! (or on their own...) for extra warmth and extra fashion!
- sneakers and converse! these shoes are a must, have you seen anyone wearing these out and about? if not, then you should be a first and spread the converse trend to your friends!
- Beenie hat! keep your ears warm and still look good!
- A scarf! A contrasting colour to match your hoodie, the jumper and your beenie hat!
- A leather man bag! for those who carry lots and want to look trendy!
- If you don't feel like wearing a hat, then gel up your hair! (make it look messy but not straight up as you don't want to look like Jedward! :S

Cross Country
For almost every school in Swindon, on Saturday 21st, there was a cross country event that took place at Hreod School. The top 10 from each group would represent Swindon in the Wiltshire trials.
Our school, as a whole, did exceedingly well, with many of our pupils ranking on the leader board.
Nyle Clinton stole the show and made it to 2nd place. Hayley Elbourne and Jodie Watt also made the top 5!
Here at G-Mag, we are sure that the school is extremely proud of all of the students who participated in the event and believe congratulations are in order!

Best of the West Tournament
Although the weather was gloomy, the teams of Swindon were still enthusiastic to win 'The Best of the West' football tournament, last Saturday.
All of the teams tried their best and finally, the results were in and the mayor gave out the trophies. The runners-up were the 'Toothill Soldiers'. Second were 'Youth-First' and finally, in first place, was 'West'.
After a great game there was a penalty 'kick-off' with the police. Everyone had loads of fun! The ones to thank for all of this are Huw Solly and PCSO Richard Lane.
We can't wait for the next one!
