Sad day in Parker’s today, as we say good bye to Caron. She has been the backbone of our team and a mother figure to us all. Her advice and support will be deeply missed. Thank you, Caron, for everything you’ve done. Wishing you all the best in your new chapter @OWBAssoc

Our Sixth Formers had a fantastic time at their Winter Ball on Friday. The ball included a performance from our Sixth Form band, 'Flatline', as well as DJ Dizzy F-H, and they had everyone, staff members included, dancing the night away.

📚Nursery visited our library, enjoying stories read by our own librarian, Mrs Warrillow. These two books were kindly donated by @AppledoreBkFest's authors: #ManjeetMann and #JosephCoelho.
We are very grateful for these books and we hope they inspire our young readers!

This was a huge success last year and with our resident house band back to accompany them, along with a charcuterie buffet and a glass of wine for the audience, this should be another sell-out evening.

Years 6 - 13 were given a great opportunity as we welcomed polar explorer, Alex Hibbert! ❄️
Alex is the world record-holding #polarexplorer, who has skied further on an unsupported Arctic journey than anyone in history.

Thank you, @alexhibbert for this wonderful privilege!

Prep Six are taking on the challenge of climbing the three highest peaks of each county: Devon, Somerset, and Cornwall.
This time, they climbed the famous #BrownWilly, the highest point of Bodmin Moor and Cornwall as a whole!
Next challenge: they'll head to Dartmoor later in June
