Postcards From The Science Department

A very special well done (and a postcard) to the boys who have completed their Science homework to such a high level.  

Your work has been amazing!

So thumbs up!

For recognition of their hard endeavour at a time that can be frustrating and difficult to engage (especially with school work) we have sent this postcard, thanking the students personally.  

Thank you boys and keep up with the good work!

You might just get another!

#TwoPointSixChallenge

The Polygon School are taking part in the 2.6 Challenge to help raise money for Southampton City Catering

Sunday the 26th April would have been the date of the London Marathon, many charities across the UK rely on the income generated by such a massive fundraising event. Last year alone the marathon raised £66.4 million pounds. 

In these difficult times charities are being hit hard and are losing out on vital funding streams. 

As a Polygon School community, we would like to take part in the 2.6 Challenge and support our partner City Catering (registered charity number 1160776) who are currently working around the clock to continue to feed families in Southampton.

Our aim is to collectively walk, run or cycle the minimum distance of the London Marathon (26 miles).  However it would be even better if 26 people could run/walk/cycle 2.6 miles each- this would mean we would  cover 2.6 marathons which is just over 68 miles! 

We are asking for all member of our community to participate on Monday 27th April (The day after the London Marathon). 

You can donate using following links:

We would like to collect pictures to celebrate our achievements so please send your photographs into info@polygon.southampton.sch.uk. I know as a staff team many of us will be running at school and from home. 

Remember to follow the government guidelines and keep a social distance!

If you are unable to get out and run, walk or jog please participate in anyway you can. This could be by making posters, climbing stairs, sit ups or anything that involves the number 26 or 2.6!

We look forward to seeing the results - come on team Polygon!
