9-Day Attendance Challenge

We've challenged our students to be in school every day between Monday 23rd March and Thursday 2nd April. 

To encourage them, we're offering the following incentives:

  • Reward: Any student who achieves 100% attendance across all 9 days will receive a special reward!

  • Daily Live Draw: Students who attend each day are automatically entered into a live attendance prize draw.

  • Tutor Group Celebration: The tutor group with the highest overall attendance will be treated to a special celebration in the Theatre on Thursday 2nd April.

Thank you for supporting your child's consistent attendance.

Behaviour on the school bus

We have received reports of graffiti, litter, and excessive mud on the school bus. The bus company kindly provides this additional service for our students, and we risk losing it if the poor behaviour of a few continues.

We expect all students to demonstrate our GREAT habits while travelling. We ask that you kindly support us by having a conversation with your child about respecting the bus and its driver.

Edurio survey for parents & carers

If you haven't done so already, please fill in our annual survey via the following link:

The deadline is Friday 30 March.

Re:Uniform Exchange

Our Re:Uniform Exchange helps families share good quality, pre-loved uniform - free of charge.

How it works:

  • Donate uniform your child no longer needs
  • Take items if you need them – no cost, no judgement

Come along to our next Re:Uniform Exchange on Monday 13 April, 10am - 12pm.

Further details here.

Football Festival for girls aged 10–14
