On Friday, a group of our pupils had the wonderful opportunity to visit BAPS Shri Swaminarayan Mandir in London.

They experienced the beauty of a traditional Hindu Arti ceremony and explored the Understanding Hinduism exhibition, deepening their knowledge and appreciation of the faith.

It was an inspiring day filled with culture, reflection, and meaningful learning ✨

The moment has arrived! Today marks the official start of exam season for our Class of 2026 📚✍️

To kick things off on a positive note our wonderful Exams Officer, Mrs Wixey, set the tone with her song choice - Happy by Pharrell Williams - bringing energy, smiles, and a boost of confidence to our students before they began 🎶😊

We are incredibly proud of the hard work, resilience, and dedication our students have shown leading up to this point. This is just the beginning of an important journey, and we know they are ready to give it their very best.

Wishing all of our students the focus, confidence, and success they deserve. You've got this 💪
