Congratulations to one of our ex-students, Charntay, who recently competed in the Elite Amateur Boxing Championships.
We are delighted to share that the result placed Charntay THIRD in the whole country.
It’s been a journey full of hard work and dedication.

Over Easter, many of CVC's Y11 Geographers visited Iceland to see some of the amazing physical geography the south of Iceland has to offer. A key highlight was our visit and walk on the Sólheimajökull Glacier.

On Wednesday, CSF celebrated aspects of our cultural diversity. It was great to see people sharing their culture in so many ways, through wearing traditional clothing, to the food which people brought in (all delicious!). It was great to see so many people getting Henna as well!

Well done to all those in the squad, but a particular mention to the 5 girls in Year 11 who joined those in Year 12 and 13. The quarter final awaits, another amazing achievement for CVC/CSF when you consider last season, the girls went all the way to the final.

Congratulations to CSF's U18s Girls Football Team, who played Repton School this week in the ESFA National Cup. It was a very tough game which ended full time at 1:1. We are delighted that the girls then won on penalties, ending 4:2. Well done girls, you should be really proud.

Every year we support the Christmas Hamper Appeal, which was even more important this year as we’d heard that the local food bank had been struggling to fulfil all the hampers they want to give out. Thank you to everyone’s help and contributions - these are really valued!

[CombertonVC @CombertonVC]

Enormous thanks from the Librarians to the many families who have already donated books to the library this Christmas! We’ve been blown away by your generous support and will try to get as many as possible on our shelves before the holiday. https://t.co/IJ7zCKHzui

The German Exchange are having a great time and have visited the Merkers salt mine. Pupils travelled 800m underground and learned (in German!) about how the mine works. They also visited the 'Kristallgrotte' ('crystal grotto') with the world's biggest salt crystal!

[CombertonVC @CombertonVC]

Another early start this morning for our pupils… this trip is for our Year 11 GCSE History pupils who have started their exploration of Munich! Pupils are visiting for the next couple of days to learn about key events to support their GCSE learning of Nazi Germany.

[CombertonVC @CombertonVC]

After an early start this morning, the German exchange group have arrived in Bad Hersfeld and have been met by their host families. They are looking forward to a day in a German school tomorrow, and an early night!

Our KS3 MFL pupils have smashed the UK Languagenut competition, finishing 10th in the whole of the UK. This is a particularly impressive achievement as they were competing against KS4 pupils in many other schools. A special congratulations to Jacob who finished 23rd! Well done!
