Each September our Year 7 students spend the week together at Bushcraft, learning new skills, forging new friendships and cementing existing ones.
The students were taught a range of practical skills such as knife skills, camp cooking and first aid, as well as building shelters, making traps and taking a wilderness walk!
Even in the British weather, their spirits couldn’t be dampened. Thank you to the staff and Bushcraft team for another memorable trip.

What is always one of the highlights of a new school year? Hearing about all of the incredible experiences that the students have been part of over the holidays.
Jasper J certainly made the most of the summer! During August he competed (in blue) as part of the British team at the European Stick Fighting Championships in Belfast.
He took the gold medal in 3 events, making him the Under 18 Champion in:
🥇Double Stick Armoured,
🥇Single Stick Armoured and
🥇Single Stick Padded.
Next stop will be the world championships in Bonn next year! An incredible achievement Jasper!! 👏

🌟 **Welcome to Reception!** 🌟
What a fantastic start to the new school year! This week, we’ve loved welcoming our wonderful Reception Class into their new classroom.
It’s been heartwarming to see so many familiar faces from nursery settling in with confidence, as well as our brilliant new starters who are already forming lovely friendships. 💛
From exploring new areas of learning to enjoying playtime together, our little learners are off to a flying start — and we can’t wait to see all the amazing things they’ll achieve this year! 🚀✨

We are ready for a new school year!
A warm welcome back to all of our students and to many for the first time too.
The term has started with a new Quinton tradition of presenting our wonderful Year 7 students with their Senior School blazer in front of their fellow students and family members. It was wonderful to see them all at the start of their next phase and a true pleasure to have them as part of our Quinton family.
Headmaster Mr Thomas Muskin addressed the school and asked them to consider the new year as a new page; an opportunity to consider what they are going to be inspired to do, what they are going to be proud of and what are they going to change?
“Small disciplines repeated with consistency every day, leads to great achievements.” - John C Maxwell.
We look forward to an exciting new academic year full of opportunities and achievements.
