Dear Parents,

As we reach the end of this half term, it’s wonderful to reflect on all that our students have achieved. From the generosity shown through our Harvest Boxes to the opening of our community café and the record interest in our Sixth Form at the recent Open Evening, the energy across the school has been exceptional. Our nomination for Independent School of the Year has been another highlight - a result of the confidence, kindness, and ambition our girls show every day.

It has been a busy and rewarding few weeks, and I’m incredibly proud of how our students continue to support one another and embrace every opportunity.

 

As we look ahead to the second half of term, there is much to be excited about, including the Schools’ Carol Concert and a calendar full of performances, fixtures, and community events.

Wishing everyone a restful and enjoyable half-term break.

Mr John Partridge,

Headteacher
