Josie achieved an impressive ten grade 9s and one grade 8. She plans to pursue A levels in Biology, Chemistry, Physics and Spanish. Her father, Adam, said: “St Helen’s has prepared Jo brilliantly. We’re glad that her hard work has finally come to fruition.” #GCSEResultsDay2024
There was a brilliant atmosphere at our #GCSEResultsDay2024 this morning with friends and family coming together to celebrate a stellar set of results - congratulations, HelKats!
Earlier this week, Year 10 spent the day taking part in School of Comedy - comedians flexed their creativity coming up with ideas, workshopping material and drafting scripts, all of which were performed in our Science Atrium later in the afternoon #SHSKActivitiesWeek
What a fabulous #WinterConcert this evening! So lovely to hear our younger performers from Yr5-Yr10 showing such enthusiasm & musicality. Bravo! 👏🏻 👏🏻👏🏻 @SHSKJuniors@SHSKLower@SHSKMiddle
It was so good to welcome Y9 parents to @SHSKSchool this evening for in- person meetings with teachers. Lots of great conversations and, hopefully, options beginning to crystallise @SHSKMiddle
We’ve had a brilliant first day of performances at our annual #SHSKChristmas Revue - singing, dancing, gymnastics and plenty of festive cheer in our seasonal showcase of talent 🎵🎄
Well, we’re certainly feeling Christmassy now - what a show!
Bravo to all our amazing @SHSKMiddle performers, a wonderfully seasonal production #SHSKChristmas@SHSKDrama
Bea’s (9L) “The Star of Bethlehem” card design was inspired by the journey of the three kings as they followed the star to Bethlehem, hoping it would lead them to Jesus #SHSKChristmas#AdventCalendar
For her #SHSKChristmas card, Samantha (9M) was inspired by Desmond Tutu’s quote “Hope is being able to see that there is light despite all of the darkness” – she said her piece symbolises that there is always good, even if you are surrounded by hopelessness #AdventCalendar
We’re incredibly proud to have been ranked top independent girls school in Oxfordshire and 5th in the Southeast for the second year in a row by @TheTimes Parent Power 2024, reflecting the brilliance of our students and staff! https://t.co/S1XMLgj601

This metaphor is longer than I usually favor, but it captures an important dynamic between parents and their teens. Our teenagers don't become a little bit more independent each day. Instead, they move back and forth - clinging to us and then pushing away like swimmers in a pool.
“Hopefully Waiting” – when asked about her #Christmas card design, Ceci (11K) said: I was inspired by my dog hopefully waiting for someone to come home at the end of a snowy Christmas day #SHSKChristmas#AdventCalendar
On the first day of #Advent we’re sharing “Tree of Light” by Jessica (9J): I was inspired to design the “Tree of Light” because, for me, light means hope and all the fairy lights and candles at Christmas make it such a special occasion #SHSKChristmas#AdventCalendar
