Today's act of remembrance is always a moving event as the whole school community gathers to remember.
My thanks to OE Chris Idle, who spoke about his wartime memories, and to the choir and chaplain for their help in creating such a solemn and significant event.
The first addition of our @ElthamHpap Journal has now been released and parents, staff and students can read Volume 1 via the Headmasters weekly news letter! Enjoy! @ElthamSport@ElthamHead
As a parent, don't try to live out your dreams through your children. Allow them to live their own lives and help them become well-rounded adults. Do what's truly best for their future development and well-being.

Tough day at the office for our 1st VII today. Drawing some strong competitors in our pool, we put out some impressive performances but not quite enough to get us over the line.
For just 3.5 weeks of training together, not bad at all. Watch this space 💙

@ElthamCollHock Girls U13A finished up Plate Runners up today at the annual Sevenoaks Tournament. Well done to all the girls involved as progress was made in every match and to only lose the final on sudden death penalties is a fantastic achievement 🥈🏑
Brilliant to have over 60 students from the HPAP and Sports Scholarship programme get stuck into the S&C today. 2 fantastic sessions combined with mentor meetings at 7am and 12.30pm. Fixtures tomorrow! @ElthamSport
Following the Seniors this morning, Year 8 & 9 Junior Sports Scholars were put through their Fitness tests this lunch time. All 60 junior scholars, associate scholars & 38 HPAP members have completed their tests this week. @ElthamSport
Looking forward to another successful year of developing our top Athletes.

Incredible effort from Hayden. Following a summer of success Hayden has been selected for the Kent at the National County Championships in Sheffield! Best of Luck Hayden. @ElthamCollAqua@ElthamSport
Why not end our extraordinary year with another Gold Medal from our very own Hayden! Hayden won gold in the London Regional Open Water Championships over the 2km distance. He had already qualified for Nationals with his time in the pool but he secured that with this win!
It’s a mirror imagine in the 50 BRST - Veronique positing a new Lifetime Best but just coming up short of the medals to take 4th Place - we’re all so incredibly proud of your achievements over the past 2 weeks.
Veronique does it again in the 50m BRST qualifying for tonight’s final in a new Personal Best Time. I’m sure everyone in the EC community will be cheering you on! You can view Veroniques race here from 5pm https://t.co/SfLmjsSD3H
