I wonder what your memories of school dinners are? Perhaps features such as 'brown', 'sloppy', and 'served with Jelly' come to mind? Well if that’s the case, let me start by clarifying that Warwick School food is nothing like that! Each day we are treated to a veritable banquet of spice, seasoning, flavour and colour. Which is why I was so surprised to hear two boys, tucked away in the corner of the dining room, grumbling about their food. Intrigued, I asked what the problem was, to which I was told it was “too granola”. While I’m still not entirely sure what that means, the whole episode got me thinking about a story in the Bible recorded in the Book of Numbers, about a group of people who grumbled about their food, over 3000 years ago:
Since 2018, the Drama Department have had the support of a Drama Graduate Assistant – a specialist who is theatre-trained can support the many lessons at all levels and contribute significantly to the huge co-curricular life of the department. We always hoped it would provide a dynamic professional with the opportunity to gain vital experience in production and education that helps propel them in their careers. It has, in reality, exceeded that ambition in so many ways.
Congratulations to Mr Wang, Mathematics teacher, who has recently secured a new teaching job at Magdalen College School, Oxford. Mr Wang completed his teacher training with NMAPS (National Mathematics and Physics) at Warwick School, which is an alternative route into teaching.

Thank you again for your generous support of last half term’s fundraiser to support the Sir Stanley Matthews Foundation. Thanks to your kindness, we were able to raise a fantastic £8,965.34; which (until last week’s fundraiser to support UNICEF Ukraine) was the biggest donation to a charity that I have seen during my time at Warwick.
This week, Warwick School celebrated British Science Week with a plethora of events. The week kicked off with the Friday Encounter from Professor Peter Varnish on Friday. The pupils then entered their best and most scientific bakes in the Science Bake Off, with some very impressive and delicious bakes. Thank you to Mrs Jacka, Mrs Leaf and the lab technicians for judging.
This week we are starting the Christian festival of Lent, a period of 40 days during which Christians remember the events leading up to and including the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, whose life and teachings are the foundation of Christianity. Millions of people give something up during Lent as a way to focus on Jesus and remember this important part of his life.
We are pleased to announce another term packed full of diverse, exciting, and thought-provoking talks from a range of inspiring speakers. Pupils from all year groups are welcome to attend what is sure to be another fantastic term of events.
Please note that our visit from David Blunkett has been delayed until the Summer term. More details will be provided with the Summer programme.
House Competitions this academic year got off to a fantastic pre-season start with the new Year 13 House Captains battling it out over the Summer holidays to make a good first impression, by creating a ‘getting to know me’ video for their House. From a sing-a-long to Amarillo by Ted, to a motivational walk and talk with Ben, it was a hard one to judge but in the end it was Teddy who gave Brooke an early lead with his humorous video in which he not only walked across a beach in full school uniform but then promptly jumped off a public pier to show his dedication to how serious he is about Brooke winning the coveted Cock House Cup this year.

This Children’s Mental Health Week we have been exploring the theme ‘Growing Together’, thinking about how we can grow and develop our resilience to overcome challenges, together rather than stuck on our own.
We had two whole-school assemblies, one for King’s and one for Warwick, where six boys and six girls gave a talk on Mental Health. Read the full assembly delivered to pupils below:
