🎨 Year 1 & 2 Art: Inspired by Matisse
Our Year 1 and 2 artists created vibrant collage work inspired by Henri Matisse. After studying his use of bold shapes, bright colours and overlapping forms, the children applied these ideas to their own fabulous designs.
We’re so proud of their creativity and confidence — great work! 🌈

📐 Year 2 Maths: Geometry in Action
Year 2 pupils have been busy exploring geometry, sorting and grouping shapes by their properties. Using digital tools, they identified shapes, compared sides and corners, and explained their thinking with confidence.
A brilliant lesson full of focus, reasoning and smiles! 😊

As part of our end-of-term reflections, Year 5 and 6 have been reviewing how they have used their ACTIVE skills throughout the autumn term. Pupils spent time looking back through their books, photographs and project work, identifying moments where they demonstrated key skills such as analysis, creativity, teamwork, independence, versatility and engagement.
Through thoughtful discussion, pupils considered how these skills have supported their learning across different subjects and activities. They then began creating their own personal portfolios, celebrating their achievements and highlighting the progress they have made so far this year.
This reflective process has given pupils the opportunity to recognise their strengths, take pride in their efforts and set goals for the term ahead—an important part of becoming confident, independent learners.
Well done, Year 5 & 6, for such mature and meaningful reflections!

Carol Service 2025
Our annual Carol Service was a truly special event, bringing together pupils, staff, families and friends to reflect on the Christmas story through music, readings and worship.
Following the traditional Festival of Nine Lessons and Carols, pupils from across the school confidently shared readings from scripture, beautifully interwoven with performances from choirs, ensembles and soloists of all ages. From the opening instrumental procession Walking in the Air, performed by Lucia May, to the powerful full‑school finale Carol of the Bells, with solo by Mariia, the service showcased both musical excellence and a strong sense of togetherness.
Highlights included a moving O Holy Night from Years 10 & 11, sensitive performances from our BTEC students and Junior Choir, and joyful contributions from pupils throughout the Prep School. Year 5 & 6 performed Christmas Isn’t Christmas, accompanied on piano by Janie, while a thoughtful poem by Evie‑Grace and Ezra provided a reflective pause within the service.
With familiar hymns sung by the whole congregation and a closing blessing from Reverend Claire, the evening was a wonderful reminder of the spirit of Christmas and the strength of our school community.
We are incredibly proud of every pupil who took part.

Our final Christmas performance of the season was a wonderfully entertaining production of the classic pantomime Dick Whittington, performed by pupils from Years 3 to 6. The children brought the story to life with great enthusiasm, showcasing all the familiar characters: Dick and his loyal cat, Alderman Fitzwarren and his daughter Alice, Idle Jack and his mum Sarah, the Admiral and his sailors, and of course the villainous King Rat and his mischievous minions.
The performance had everything a good pantomime should—energetic acting, humour, lively scenes and plenty of audience participation. The hall was filled with joyful shouts of “Behind you!” and resounding boos every time King Rat made an appearance, adding to the fun and festive atmosphere.
A huge well done to all pupils and staff involved. It was a brilliant way to end our Christmas celebrations and a performance that will be remembered fondly by everyone who attended!
