Posted on: 21/11/2024Outward Bound ResidentialWe hope our students are as proud of themselves as we are all of them .They have achieved so much, overcome huge obstacles and had a huge amount of fun, with some being away from home for the very first time. This residential has built their confidence, resilience and self esteem. As one student said, 'We can do this. We've done scarier things this week.' We hope this experience stays with our students and the next time they are faced with a challenge they have the self confidence to push through and achieve their goals
Posted on: 18/11/2024Outward Bound ResidentialAbseiling and climbing to the peak of the mountain taught our students to not only trust themselves, to confront their fears, but mainly to persist despite un- certainty. The peak was not only a destination but a reminder that with determi- nation and courage, we can rise above our fears, one step at a time.

Posted on: 22/05/2024Islington Schools Football League WinnersThe year 8 and 9 football team faced their biggest challenge this week. "It was the best and hardest match we played as a team, we pushed so hard in every match and we played so well by communicating well and making sure everyone knew where they were supposed to be. I think it is important as a team you have to work together and not to put all of the effort onto one player. We won the tournament because we understood that it was such an amazing and exciting feeling after winning our last match. We knew we had to draw or win and we were determined to win.” - Poppy (Team Captain)-Year 9
