It has been a very busy last week of term, but a week which has also shown the Junior School at its best with the friendly yet competitive nature of the Christmas Staggers, the excitement of Christmas Jumper Day and Christmas Lunch, the confidence and creativity on display during Open Homework presentations, the enthusiasm for the Christmas General Knowledge Quiz, the support of the PAWS in running a Christmas Activity afternoon for all the boys in the school, and the joyous singing and reflective readings at the wonderful Carol Service. The last week of this term is always a highlight of the year and although this year the week has been a little busier than usual, the boys have been a credit to the school. 

The calendar for the Lent Term has been finalised and we will be sending out a Start of Term letter and Key Dates for the term on Monday 5 January. Please note that Monday 5th is an INSET Day and that the boys in Young Voices will have their concert on Wednesday 7 January 

As we start the Christmas holidays, I would like to thank you all for your support of your sons, not just in the last week, but throughout the term. I wish you all a very happy and peaceful Christmas with your families and look forward to welcoming the boys back to school in 2026. 

With my very best wishes, 

John Bond
