Our academic year is divided into three terms. Each term is filled with engaging lessons, exciting events, and memorable experiences. Below are documents with the term dates for the current and upcoming academic year. Please note that these dates are published in advance to facilitate planning. A full calendar of events is available on My School Portal (MSP).
Year 8 have been stepping into the world of Ancient Greek Theatre this half term – performing in our very own amphitheatre!
Using masks they have created themselves, students have been exploring powerful myths and legends including Medea and Pandora’s Box, experimenting with Greek chorus, physical theatre, exaggerated movement and choral storytelling.
There’s something rather magical about bringing Greek Theatre to life in the space it was inspired by.

Our Year 10 Art students recently visited the National Portrait Gallery to support their ‘Weird and Wonderful Portraits’ project, exploring the Herbert Smith Freehills Kramer Portrait Award 2026.
From unexpected compositions to imaginative interpretations, students explored how contemporary artists are pushing the boundaries of portraiture and came away with plenty of ideas to inspire their own work.
A brilliant day of art, ideas and inspiration.

Bonjour, Hola, Hallo… Hello!
Today we celebrate European Day of Languages!
What better way to celebrate than hearing some of the wonderful languages spoken across our school community? From a simple “hello” in different languages to our fabulous Year 1 children singing Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes in French.
We love celebrating the joy of languages and the wonderful cultures they open up to us. Learning a new language can start with just one little word… Bonjour!
