On the 16th of November, the Year 7 Hungarian students embarked on an educational journey to the Budapest History Museum nestled in the heart of the Castle District. Their mission? To partake in an engaging treasure hunt, seeking the whereabouts of King Matthias's lost crown. This captivating activity not only added a layer of excitement but also served as a unique method for delving into the history of 15th-century Hungary, a focal point of their current studies.
Here's what our students had to say about their enriching experience:
- Martin: "I appreciated the interactive approach to learning history."
- Eliska: "The treasure hunt was my favorite part."
- Peti: "Roleplaying as the king was so much fun!"
- Mira: "I discovered that they used bones for predicting the future."
- Adél: "Exploring the beautiful old palace was a highlight for me."
This hands-on excursion not only brought history to life but also provided our students with a deeper understanding of the cultural and historical nuances of Hungary's rich past.

Year 12 have been spending a lot of time in Sports Hall One over the last week. Not doing sport, although they could tell you the science behind it…
There was a fun packed programme for the secondary students remaining on-site, which followed the 5 Co-Curricular strands. Students were immersed in languages, film-making, STEAM activities and cooking. They learned about children's rights and advocacy, and showed their creative talents through artwork. They hiked in the hills and formed friendships across year groups. See the Firefly page for further details and photographs
It has been a very memorable end of the primary journey for our Year 6 students. This last week of term has been jam packed. On Monday and Tuesday, the students performed the end of year production of ‘Olivia’, on Tuesday morning, there was a year group water fight and on Wednesday afternoon, they finally graduated with a special ceremony.
As a community, we've been actively promoting healthy eating habits through our weekly articles about life in the kitchen. With the summer holidays just a few days away and the heatwave this summer, we must all be more mindful of our fluid intake.
