Friday 19 June 2026 Year 8 Play - 39 Steps What a romp! This year's Year 8 production of The 39 Steps was an utterly hilarious show from start to finish, packed with laughter, chaos, mystery and more than a few unexpected handcuffs!Even more impressive was the fact that the children and staff put the entire production together in just five days. Learning lines, mastering comic timing, moving scenery and bringing such a fast-paced show to life in less than a week is no small feat. It was an incredible performance and a fantastic way for our Year 8s to finish the year. They were simply brilliant.A special mention must go to Vinnie, who took on the demanding role of Richard Hannay. His portrayal was utterly superb, learning a huge number of lines from memory and delivering them with epic comic timing throughout. He carried the show magnificently and had the audience laughing from beginning to end.Daisy and Emma, as the Clowns and Heavies, seemed to be constantly on stage, lugging scenery, rolly-pollying across the set and generall

From there, the team travelled to Wellington Prep, whose fantastic generosity and hospitality made the tour possible.Friday brought a blustery but brilliantly enjoyable morning at Brean Beach, one of the genuine highlights of the tour. The children completed an epic walk around the peninsula, exploring the old fortifications, playing beach games and tucking into toasties and chips. An afternoon pairs match against Wellington followed, with SCS again coming out on top and Tommy producing a star performance.

Thursday 21 May 2026 Leadership Activity Day at Cheltenham College On Monday a group of Year 5s had an exciting and rewarding Leadership Activity Day at Cheltenham College, where they were led by the College's Sixth Form students.Throughout the day, the children worked in teams to complete eight different activities, each with its own rules and objectives. Every challenge required them to think carefully, solve problems, and work together to achieve the best possible outcome.One of the most memorable activities was the tyre stacking challenge. Rose W described it by saying:“The tyre stacking activity was so hard because it was difficult to keep them in order.”As the day progressed, the children's communication skills developed, learning the importance of listening carefully to instructions, respecting one another's ideas, and knowing when to contribute and when to listen. Their teamwork was outstanding throughout the day.The pupils celebrated each other's successes and always spoke to one another with kindness and respect. If someo

Thursday 15 May 2025 Year 7 Jurassic Coast Adventure Last Friday, Year 7 took on an epic 8-mile trek along the Jurassic Coast - and lived to tell the tale! Armed with their geography and science know-how (and a good supply of snacks), the pupils showed brilliant curiosity and determination as they tackled cliffs, fossils, and the odd uphill stretch. The whole year group was full of questions, energy, and enthusiasm from start to finish. Special mention goes to Harriet and George J, who earned a Headteacher’s Commendation for their outstanding attitude on the day and for throwing themselves into the follow-up project like true coastal explorers.
