We all remember our time at school, regardless how long ago it was and most of us will remember that one teacher, or perhaps more, that influenced or made a difference to our lives, perhaps even shaping the course of what we went on to do after school. We are fortunate to have Sevenoaks School as one of our sponsors and they in turn are even more fortunate to have Ms Cat Davison as part of their teaching cohort. Ms Davison has been shortlisted for the world’s “best teacher” in a competition set up by The Varkey Foundation, currently in its seventh year, which was set up to recognise one exceptional teacher and their contribution to the profession.
A critical thinking teacher, Ms Davison’s application of curricula applying ethics to action prompted a surge of 120 student-led projects. Further afield, her work with teachers and students in Ghana and the UK has led to a network of 42 community-led solar-powered libraries, EduSpots.
The top 50 teachers will be narrowed down further and 10 finalists will be announced in October, with overall winners revealed at an awards ceremony in Paris in November.
We would also like to take this opportunity to thank Sevenoaks School for their ongoing support of Sevenoaks RFC, both as a sponsor and also for allowing the use of their facilities for training.
We believe rugby acts as a strong bedrock to many, providing a family and home away from home, a set of friends and teammates from different schools and backgrounds - when you put on your club shirt, you are part of that team and you play together as one.
Sevenoaks Rugby Club deliver rugby to club members throughout the season, but also look to take our beloved sport beyond The Paddock and out in to the wider community, to a variety of groups across all education sectors, both primary and secondary. Delivering community coaching camps and festivals during school holidays as well as delivering high quality provision before, during and after school in term time.
With this in mind, we are looking to recruit a Community Rugby Manager to lead our community rugby programme, reporting directly to the Director of Rugby. If you think this might suit you, or perhaps you know somebody that might be interested, please see full job description below and send an email with a short covering letter and full CV to coachajbowman@gmail.com
There is often a debate in the club house, often after an Acorns game, as to what to do next when our knees hang up their boots and retire from full contact rugby…… We believe we have the answer right here - INDOOR BOWLS!
It’s a sport with no restriction placed on the athlete. Age, gender, experience, physical ability - all can be catered for with players ranging from complete beginners to county and even national competition level.
Located in Hollybush, The Sevenoaks & District Indoor Bowls Club is having an open day on Saturday the 2nd October from 10am to 4pm and would love anybody interested in having a go to pop by.
