This is a short but remarkably busy half term, and I am pleased to report that the Sixth Form are making the most of the time available. This term has combined growth, leadership development, and community engagement, and we are delighted to journey alongside our students and their families.

Sixth Form Leadership Inauguration - Friday 22 March 2024
On this day we will honour the exemplary leadership qualities of our Sixth Form students at the Leadership Inauguration. This event serves as a testament to their dedication, initiative, and commitment to making a positive impact within our school community. It will also be our chance to welcome our new prefect body to their roles.

Prefect Training - Saturday 23 March 2024 
Empowering our students to lead with integrity and resilience, Prefect Training provides an invaluable opportunity for personal and professional development. Through interactive workshops and team-building exercises, students will hone their leadership skills and cultivate a sense of responsibility towards their peers and the wider community.

40 Mile Walk - Sunday 7 April 2024 
As advocates for social change and community service, our students will embark on a transformative journey during the 40 Mile Walk. This symbolic gesture not only demonstrates their commitment to charitable causes, but also fosters a sense of solidarity and empathy towards those in need. We encourage parents to support their children in this noble endeavour and join us in making a difference.

24/7 Mary's Meals Walk - Sunday 12 May 2024 
Continuing our tradition of philanthropy and global citizenship, we are proud to participate in the 24/7 Mary's Meals Walk. This initiative aims to support Mary's Meals in their mission to provide nutritious meals to children in some of the world's poorest communities. By walking together, our students exemplify the values of compassion, empathy, and solidarity.

In conclusion, as we navigate the opportunities and challenges of the Lent Term, we extend our deepest gratitude to all parents for their unwavering support and commitment to their child's education. Together, let us empower our Sixth Form students to embrace leadership, service, and personal growth. Ensuring that they emerge as confident, compassionate, and resilient individuals ready to make a positive impact on the world.
