“It was such a privilege for me to be able to accompany the Year 5 and 6 students to Grafham Water Activity Centre. They all embraced every activity with positivity and were super supportive of each other throughout the week.
While residentials may be daunting for some, it is always a wonderful opportunity to push yourself out of your comfort zone and embrace new challenges, being in the right place at the right time with the right equipment to the focus and concentration needed for water, height and endurance activities.
I hope all the children have shared all about their adventures and made some wonderful memories.”
Mrs Julia Saghri, Head of Preparatory School

🇬🇧 80th VE Day celebrations 🇬🇧
In the true spirit of wartime Britain, the 80th anniversary of VE Day brought our community together to reflect on the historic moment, immerse themselves in childhood games of the era and crucially share the personal family stories of both students and staff alike.

It takes a very brave student to sponge their (Head)teacher*… or an excellent cause! 🧽
Students and teachers came out in support of Miss Fillmore’s fundraising efforts for @helpforheroes and @hockey_4_heroes today, with a ‘sponge the teacher’ charity event. During the May half term, Miss Fillmore is yet again set to be part of a team, taking on a mammoth task.
“The Mission:
There are 2,021,209 veterans currently living in the UK. Over the course of 9 challenging days in May, our men’s and women’s squads will undertake an incredible challenge, attempting to complete a cumulative 2,021,209 metres of intense and gruelling fitness racing, one metre for every single veteran, in addition to playing 54 hockey matches.”
The teachers who took part were all brilliant sports and the students raised over £165 in just one lunchtime.
If you would like to support Miss Fillmore and @helpforheroes, head to our bio where you will find the link.

*the sponging of Mr. Muskin was accompanied by a cry of “I’m really sorry” as the sponge was mid-flight! 😄

Gandalf, Zurg from Toy Story and the Mona Lisa… it must be Year 13’s celebration day!
Our students soaked up the sun yesterday on their final day before the serious task of their exams commence, but not before the serious task of the assault course. Witnessing a cow (Mr Tedd) and the Mona Lisa (Mr Plummer), complete the course, was something to behold!
We hope all of our students enjoyed their well deserved downtime and feel re-energised for the next few weeks ahead. As always, we are here to support you throughout.
