11/06/2026Empathy Day Festival 2026 - Read for Empathy
We’re proud to be celebrating the Empathy Day Festival in our library this week!
Did you know that reading can build empathy? When we jump into a character’s story, we see the world through new perspectives, understand different experiences, and grow kinder, and more connected as a result.
This year’s #ReadForEmpathy Collection is packed with powerful, thought-provoking books —exploring identity, relationships, resilience, and understanding others.
Great news: We have many of these titles available in the library right now!

8/06/2026This term, we were treated to an inspiring visit from slam poet and novelist Steve Tasane, who got our students buzzing with rhythm, rhyme, and performance confidence. From writing praise poems to sharing their passions, the creativity was electric.
Last term’s Poetry By Heart competition brought even more talent to the stage — huge dedication, huge heart.
Congratulations to our worthy winners:
KS3 Freestyle — Jasmine C
KS3 Classic — Lucy P
Staff Winner — Miss K Laughlin
27/05/2026This term, our fantastic Year 9 students have been diving into the world of illustration. They started by studying and recreating old favourites from artists like Quentin Blake and Beatrix Potter, before using those skills to bring their very own characters to life!
The creative journey doesn't stop here. Next term, they will step into the shoes of illustrators as they create a professional publisher's layout for their own books. We can't wait to see their final stories come together!

25/05/2026We are delighted to share that one of our Year 9 students is a winner of the Royal Academy Young Artist Summer Show 👏
Out of 25,000 entries, she is one of the outstanding 350 winners - well done AH.
22/05/2026As our incredible Year 11s complete the 20th GCSE exam, we would like to wish them a well-deserved break (still with plenty of revision) over half term.
We couldn't be prouder of your focus and determination over the last 2 weeks 👏
21/05/2026Last week, the incredibly popular Henna Club held its first competition.
Mrs Salim prepared laminated hand templates, some pre-designed and some blank stencils, and provided the students with henna cones to use; the resulting designs were simply stunning. 🤩

20/05/2026Inspired by The Butterfly Project @HMHou and the poem The Butterfly by Pavel Friedman, our year 9 students have again created beautiful memorials for children who died during the Holocaust. @HMD_UK
This is an RE research project and students visited the library to learn how to research and find the information they needed to create their memorial.
