Glyn School will be supporting the Epsom and Ewell Foodbank and the Surrey Epsom Pantry as part of our Community Fundraising in the runup to Easter. The Foodbank and Pantry relies on the local community for food and household donations and we hope we can support them during the Easter Break. The Foodbank and the Pantry aims to ensure that nobody in our local community has to go hungry, but they need help to make this happen. Our donations would help make a real difference. As a school, this year we are focusing on collecting items which can be used to make Food Parcels for families. The items we have been asked to collect Easter Eggs and anything from the list below: • Tinned Fish • Cooking Sauces • Tinned Spaghetti • Instant Mash • Instant Coffee • Tea Bags • Long Life Milk • Ketchup/Mayonnaise • Custard • Powdered Milk • Tinned Vegetables • Tinned Fruit • Long Life Sponge Puddings • Sugar (500gr) • Savoury Biscuits • Biscuits • Crisps • Chocolate Biscuit Bars • Chocolate Spread/Peanut Butter/Honey • Deodorant (Male/Female) • Shower Gel • Shampoo & Conditioner • Adult Toothpaste • Washing Up Liquid Form Tutors and Heads of Year will encourage all our students to support this worthwhile cause. We hope that you will support us with this initiative and ask that students give their donations to Form Tutors or hand them in at Student Reception. The deadline for donations has been extended until Wednesday 2 April 2025. #fooddonations @epsomewellfoodbank @epsompantry @good_company_surrey #donate #supportneeded #surreyschools @glfschools

World Book Day celebrations also continued over into last week with a visit from the author Graham Scott. Graham worked with students across Key Stage 3 classes delivering writing workshops. He commented on numerous occasions on the excellent behaviour and engagement of our students. It was a wonderful opportunity to talk about the power of reading and writing and discuss the huge variety of careers that require writing skills. We hope that those students who purchased Graham Scott’s books enjoy reading them - perhaps a future book for discussion at Book Club? @englishwritergraham #authorvisit #worldbookday #reading #workshop

Glyn School - Employers Careers Presentation: A Fantastic Opportunity for Our Students We are excited to share that today, students from Years 7 to 11 had the incredible opportunity to attend an Employers Careers Presentation delivered by a former Glyn School student now working at DNEG, a leading visual effects and animation company. The presentation was both informative and inspiring, providing students with valuable insights into the world of animation and film production. The presentation was exceptionally well-received by the students, who were captivated by the behind-the-scenes look at how animated films are created. Our former student shared their personal journey, outlining the skills and qualifications needed to succeed in such a dynamic industry. This not only sparked curiosity but also encouraged our students to consider how their current studies can pave the way for future careers. #careers #careerspresentation #animation #filmproduction @glfschools @dneg
