The Prep Swim Team thoroughly enjoyed competing in a closely matched swimming gala against Notre Dame.
All the swimmers swam to to best of their abilities and some even managed to swim with a smile on their face!
We are proud of you all!

Year 10 are deep into their etching project — and the results are already looking incredible!
They’ve begun by etching their aluminium plates in a copper sulphate solution to create the first lines of their prints. Now the real artistry begins: reworking the plates using stop‑out to build... up beautiful tonal layers.
Lighter areas are protected first, then the plates go back into the etching bath.
Each round adds richer, darker tones.
The process repeats until every layer of the image is built.
Soon, they’ll ink up their plates and pull their final prints — a brilliant mix of chemistry, patience, and creativity.

Year 4 have combined a love of Science with a love of chocolate as they tested the melting points of white, milk and dark chocolate.
Before designing their experiment they discussed how to make their testing fair.
Well done Year 4 for thinking like scientists!
Stop watch at the ...ready!

Year 11 Artists kicked things off at the Banksy Tunnel, soaking in the vibrant, ever‑changing street art under the arches of Waterloo. The atmosphere was buzzing with creativity.
Next stop: the National Gallery, where pupils explored artworks linked to their GCSE theme 'Found' and ...squeezed in a bit of sketching before heading over to Tate Britain. Here, they wandered through the galleries, gathering ideas and snapping loads of photos.
Such a brilliant day for filling their sketchbooks, their minds with fresh inspiration.
