Thanks to a group of enthusiastic chess students, the Primary school held its second chess tournament this week. A staggering 64 students, from Year 1 to Year 6, took part in the competition which was organised and run by a student-lead Action Team, under the guidance of Mrs Russell, comprising of Nikita, Franklin and Sean. Luckily, with the support and guidance of our chess expert and peripatetic chess teacher, Simon Marcu, we were able to accommodate a huge number of participants! It was a wonderful event, held over four days, and culminated in a mail-biting final on Thursday! Well done to our finalists, Jason in Year 1, Sean in Year 6, Nikita in Year 3 and our overall winner Franklin, from Year 5.

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.
