Senior High Notes 24th September 2021

There was a real buzz in school today with the first House competition of the year taking place. It was wonderful to have so many students taking part or spectating. There will be many opportunities for our students to take part in a wide variety of competitions, representing their house, over the course of this year. Wherever a student’s talent lies there will be an opportunity from football to bench ball, house challenge, debating and even house gardening.

Primary High Notes 24th September

I have really enjoyed visiting Primary classrooms this week, seeing fabulous learning taking place. Dr Ngwerume took Year 5 outside for their science lesson, where they had created the planets and were mapping out the solar system in the playground. Year 1 were particularly active in their French lesson with Madame Seymour, with pupils being asked to Levez-vous! (stand up) and Levez votre main droite. I have also heard so much wonderful singing in music as Mrs Cooke and our pupils prepare for Harvest Festival.

I am sure, like me, you were gripped with the US Open last week - such incredible tennis being played by very talented athletes. In my live assembly this morning, we watched some of the highlights from the women’s final between Emma Raducanu and Leylah Fernandez. Emma went through 10 rounds to get to the final without losing a set, absolutely incredible.

On Wednesday it was lovely to hear the enthusiasm and excitement from all of our Primary pupils taking part in their tennis lessons with our tennis coach Mr Salmon. It is wonderful to have tennis coaching all year round with such an excellent qualified coach.

I very much enjoyed welcoming parents of U3, L4 and new U4s in person to school last night to hear presentations on how we support all of our students both academically and pastorally through their school journey. This morning in my first live assembly on Teams we looked ahead to the journey our students will go on this year. I shared this picture of a walk I used to enjoy every day when I lived in Scotland.

It has been wonderful to see our pupils enjoying the outside spaces in school this week. The warm weather has enabled class teachers to take pupils outside to explore their surroundings and bring their classroom learning to life. Pupils have also enjoyed resuming their weekly tennis lessons, return to swimming and starting our new provision for Juniors for their Games afternoon on Tuesdays based at Moorways.

I hope you all had a wonderful summer and are now ready to settle back into the new academic year. The children have come back to school with a renewed energy and readiness for learning, and it has been so lovely to see them all again and to catch up with their summer news. The school is alive with excited voices again and it is brilliant to be back.
