What a wonderful last week of term! The Christmas festivities across the school have been full of cheer, and it has been such a fantastic way to round off a brilliant term.

The Christmas Fair was hugely successful and the creativity that went into the student’s stalls made it great fun to walk around. It was incredible that the total raised was well over £10,000 for the year groups dedicated charities. Everyone worked so hard to bring it all together, in particular the Parents’ Guild.

Last week, Kevin Sinfield was in Brighton completing day 6 of his 7 ultramarathons, a gruelling challenge he has taken on to raise funds and awareness for the charity MNDA. As part of his route took him along the seafront road right in front of the School, the students were able to cheer him on as he passed, and as MNDA is the Year 8 charity, two members of staff and two students were invited to join him for a kilometre of his run.

As well as all of the Christmas activities that have taken place in the School, there have also been lots of successes over the last few weeks. There have been many students who have taken Music examinations, including two who passed their diplomas with Distinction. Students also did incredibly well in the BEBRAS computational challenge and in the Bronze CREST Awards.
