Follow your dreams and never give up! This was the message from Anita Ugyan, the first Hungarian woman to summit Everest, when she visited Year 4 last week. Anita led us through her journey to the top of Everest, from the fitness preparation at home through each camp on the way to the summit, to the euphoria of the achievement. The children were spellbound as they listened to the challenges she met on the way and how working together as a team is the only way to reach the summit. Anita encouraged the children to find what they are passionate about and follow their dreams. She was an inspiration to us all. The presentation was part of the childrens’ work on Adventurers and Explorers.

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.
