It was wonderful to see Year 13 last week and Year 11 this week gathering together one last time at their Leaver's Prom.

After the Year Six Leavers’ Service at Salisbury Cathedral, we were able to enjoy our lunch outside; great weather for this event.

We are delighted to see Year 13 student Liv Bowditch in @sherbornetimes. She is an amazing advocate for a wide range of issues, particularly sustainability and youth voice. We are so proud of all she has achieved so far and cannot wait to see all that she achieves in the future.

The children loved our Easter egg hunt in the woodlands today. We also played rabbit tails where the foxes had to catch the rabbits by stealing their tails. #forestschool

Thank you, Sarah Willoughby @SAST_schools for your time yesterday. It was a privilege to hear your story and hopes for the future of your Trust. Looking forward our continued collaboration in that journey together. #FlourishingTrustsNetwork @CofE_EduLead

We are so proud of Mrs Gritt and Mrs Rowe who have taken part in a national scheme to enable teachers to have a second specialism in Maths. Their dedication to our students is amazing!

This week Year 7 took part in a fantastic poetry competition organised by our English department. Students performed their poems to a really high-standard and we will be entering 13 students into the national @poetrybyheart competition. Well done to all everyone involved!
