A school full of Christmas decorations, and an amazing variety of Christmas jumpers last Friday tells us that December has truly arrived at Roedean! It was wonderful to welcome Roedean’s Olympic Gold Medal winning Sports Ambassadors, Kate and Helen Richardson-Walsh, to the School at the end of last week. Helen and Kate spent time on the newly opened flood-lit all-weather pitch with girls from every year group, and the girls thought that it was amazing to be coached by two Olympians. In other news, Year 10 students attended a Macbeth workshop on Tuesday run by the London-based Small Things Theatre Company. The actors helped to bring the text to life for the students, focusing on the ways in which Shakespeare uses a range of language, structure, and dramatic devices to present the transformation of the character of Lady Macbeth. And finally, the Winter Wonderland Ball last Friday was a great way for all the Sixth Form to spend time together before the Christmas holidays. With Christmas decorations, great lighting, amazing food made by the catering team, and a homemade photo booth, everyone really enjoyed themselves.
