LHS Newsletter: 2nd February 2024

{item_alt_tag}

Dear Parents,

I'm delighted to bring you the latest news and highlights from our School:

Our Year 11 and 13 students have recently finished taking their mock exams, and we arranged a Mock Exam Results Day to provide them with an authentic experience for their upcoming exams in the summer.

It was wonderful to see Year 9 students taking part in a litter-picking initiative in the spirit of giving back to the community.

Our Junior Department had a fantastic time participating in the RSPB Big Garden Birdwatch and there have been various wellbeing activities from dodgeball to archery.

Year 9 students had the unique opportunity to explore their future career paths through a virtual career exploration session and the A-level history students attended a Tudor history conference in London.

Lastly, it was wonderful to see our Year 10 and 11 badminton team competing and representing our School with pride.

Thank you for being part of our journey, and we look forward to sharing more exciting updates with you.

Mr Alan Whelpdale,

Headmaster
