25th November - Message from the Headmaster

Dear Parents
 
As the end of term approaches, the very busy life of the school is especially emphasised. I look forward to seeing parents at a variety of events, starting next week with the senior production of "The Sea", followed by Carols round the Fire and the Christmas end of term Carol Service. There are other exciting Christmas events at the Prep School as well of course, which I am very much looking forward to.
 
The academic programme remains in full swing. Our first batch of Oxbridge candidates are off for interview very soon. Year 11 pupils are to be treated to a very important, formal "Mock" examination at the very start of next term and work that they do now and in the holidays will help us all get the best picture of their present academic status.

The Sixth Form Christmas dinner, in all its Hollywood splendour, will be enjoyed by over 80 pupils and staff this Saturday and I am very grateful to those pupils who have organised this annual event so very well.
 
On the last Monday of term, Year 10 under the dedicated leadership of Mr Malewicz and Mr Mercer are putting on a Modern Nativity. We look forward to this interpretation of the Christmas Story, which will be introduced by one of our Governors, the Revd George Pitcher. I am really pleased with the very positive way in which our form teachers use their form time each week to supplement and broaden the pupils’ curriculum.
 
With my very best wishes
 
Roger Clark
