Friday Celebration 11/5

Another great week in the house!  We started with superb sunshine after the bank holiday weekend and IB exams continued whilst the 5th Form study leave and GSCE's began.

James had a more fantastic musical achievement as he played in the strings concert on Thursday and delivered part of the Adrian Boult Society lectures on Friday.

Tizian and Ben sang fantastically in assembly with the concert choir today, too.

Since our last installment, a special mention has to go to Sebastian, Dell and Zakhar who have played 3 epic matches for the U14E cricket team.

The Upper Sixth enjoyed their final event all together with a trip to a spa and a Thai takeaway!

In team sports this weekend:
Athletics competition: George and Divine 
Cricket:  Will for the U15C; Kabi for the U14D; Sebastian and Zakhar for the U14E
