We loved meeting so many prospective pupils and parents on Open Day and telling them all about Latin and CC at NWC. Pictured: Students and staff creating leaves decorated with Latin derivations in modern English. #WhereGirlsLearnWithoutLimits #IgnitingIntellectualCuriosity

So thrilled for Pari, who has worked so hard in both Latin and Classical Civilisation over the last two years and achieved amazing results. UCL are incredibly lucky. #ClassicsTwitter #AlevelResultsDay2022

Our lovely Year 13 Classicists bought us a ‘thank you and farewell’ Chinese today, as well as this amazing card. We will miss each of you greatly and have no doubt that you will be high-flying, trailblazers at university. Stay in touch! #NWCFamily #WeFosterJoy

Can’t wait to read such a fascinating array of articles from my inspirational colleagues - thank you so much for putting this together @NWC_Innovation !#ShapingFutureEducation

[NWC Classics @NWC_Classics]

Wow! A really interesting reworking of Oedipus the King AND Antigone, interweaving Sophocles’ original Greek lines with new English ones. Our students can’t stop talking about it! @KingsGreekPlay #WeIgniteCuriosity

Some of our sixth form who are off to @KingsGreekPlay along our Year 10s today! Can’t wait to see it. #Classics #PlagueAtThebes

Year 10 were treated to specialist guest mini-lectures by Year 12 Classicists on different aspects of the Odyssey today. Lots of impactful discussions, as well as general chat and advice about Class Civ GCSE! #Classics #NWC #WhereGirlsLearnWithoutLimits

Had such a blast on this excellent trip! Now the girls can really visualise the defensive and strategic features of Medieval castles #WhereGirlsLearnWithoutLimits

Discovered on a Classics Facebook group - a very creative individual has taken inspiration from Dolly Parton’s ‘Jolene’ to rewrite Priam’s appeal to Achilles in Book 24 of the Iliad. Definitely one to get the students performing! #Classics #ClassicsTwitter #Iliad
