What a joyous start to the Spring Term this week has been! Snow has graced us twice already, transforming the School grounds into a magical winter wonderland. Pupils eagerly made the most of the snow while it lasted, bringing joy and excitement to the start of the term. The School has been bustling with energy as teaching and learning resumed in full swing on Tuesday.
Year 11 pupils have spent the past few days diligently preparing for their Mock exams, which began today. We wish them the very best as they navigate the week ahead and demonstrate their hard work in these assessments.
This morning, the entire Senior School had the privilege of welcoming back former pupil Josh Bruyns, who shared his incredible journey to the Olympics. It was a pleasure to hear about his impressive achievements, and his assembly served as a powerful source of inspiration. His story reminded everyone of the remarkable outcomes that can be achieved through hard work, dedication, and perseverance.
