YOUR ESSENTIAL ROUND-UP FOR THE WEEK COMMENCING 12 January 2026
This Week’s Headlines: Our Year 11 pupils have continued with their Mock Exams, approaching them with focus and maturity. We are proud of the resilience they are showing and appreciate the support from staff in ensuring the exam period runs smoothly. Tuesday saw two groups of girls travel to take part in the Dorking Rotary Public Speaking Competition. Both teams represented the school admirably, demonstrating confidence, clarity and strong teamwork. We are especially pleased to congratulate one group who achieved second place with their thought-provoking motion, “Homeschooling is more effective than traditional schooling.” A fantastic achievement and an excellent example of our pupils’ communication skills in action. On Thursday, spirits were lifted with our much-anticipated ‘Indoor Beach Day’ themed lunch. Pupils enjoyed a tropical selection of pulled chicken sliders and pineapple halloumi burgers, followed by an assortment of fun, beach-inspired desserts. It was a welcome splash of colour and cheer during a rather grey week, and our thanks go to the catering team for creating such an enjoyable experience. That evening, we were pleased to welcome families to the Year 9 Parents’ Evening. It was a valuable opportunity for positive conversations between parents and staff, focusing on progress, next steps and how best to support pupils as they continue their journey through Key Stage 3. While it has been a quieter week overall due to the exam timetable, it has been encouraging to see pupils remaining engaged, supportive of one another, and making the most of the wider opportunities on offer.
