Last year, Maria and Radha (UVI) were awarded the Sir Adrian Swire Flying Scholarship, giving them the opportunity to experience flight first-hand and pursue something far beyond the classroom.

Funded by the Adrian Swire Charitable Trust, the programme supports pupils on the path to solo flight, a challenge both embraced with confidence.

For Maria, the experience brought physics to life, while for Radha, it affirmed her ambition to pursue a Private Pilot Licence.

Congratulations to them both!

Last weekend, our LVI Classics pupils visited the British Museum engaging closely with artefacts from ancient Cyprus and Etruria and developing their understanding of the ancient world.

Highlights included close study of ancient Greek vases and the Parthenon sculptures, where seeing the scale and detail in person prompted thoughtful discussion and reinforced their classroom learning.

A big thank you to everyone who made this trip possible!

Over the last two days, our Fourth Form pupils have put on a wonderful production of Peter and Wendy, bringing the world of Neverland to Wycombe Abbey.

Congratulations to everyone involved in bringing this magical story to life!

We hope everyone has a great Short Leave!

Last week, pupils took part in a two-day GCSE Geography fieldtrip based at Juniper Hall Field Studies Centre, exploring both urban and river environments as part of their exam course.

On the first day, pupils investigated urban change in Guildford, before carrying out river fieldwork in the River Tillingbourne on day two, examining downstream changes such as velocity and sediment size.

Despite wet conditions, pupils showed excellent engagement and teamwork, developing key fieldwork and enquiry skills essential for their GCSE Geography exams.

Our exchange pupils from the USA and Australia have been thoroughly enjoying their time in England, embracing the opportunity to experience the country’s rich and culture and heritage.

Last week, they visited many of the most iconic landmarks across London, Windsor and Oxford, gaining a deeper insight into some of the UK’s most historic destinations.

We’re delighted to have them with us and look forward to the rest of their experience!
