Inter Girls win County Combined Athletics event

Students from SCD competed at the County Combined Events in Stevenage yesterday. Sixteen athletes competed in total, with boys and girls teams in both Junior (Year 8 and 9) and Intermediate (Year 10 and 11) categories. All competitors had to complete a pentathlon during the day. The Junior teams competed in the 80m hurdles, long jump, shot, high jump and 800m; the Intermediate Girls took part in the 80m hurdles, long jump, javelin, 200m and 1500m whilst the Intermediate Boys did the 100m, long jump, discus, javelin and 1500m. Superb performances from the Intermediate Girls team of Hannah Dickins, Georgia West, Becca Jones and Marie Wensel saw them finish the day as champions, whilst the Junior Boys (Brad Simm, Stanley McDowell, Tom Minns and Kai Alland) came 2nd overall.  The Intermediate Boys (Josh Greengrow, Oliver Wontner, Luke Simpson and Joe Ainsworth) came 3rd overall and the Junior Girls team (Lauryn Holder, Amelie Royle, Vinita Patel and Scarlett Royle) had an excellent day but did not make the top 3.

There were stand-out performances from individuals: Josh Greengrow finished 5th in the county, whilst Brad Simm and Lauryn Holder both finished 12th in their categories.

Well done to all those who took part!

Charities Week 2025

The halls of ¿ìèÊÓÆµ have been buzzing with holiday cheer this week as the annual Charities Week is officially in full swing. As the Autumn Term draws to a close, pupils and staff have united to raise vital funds for three incredible causes: Endometriosis UK, Spread a Smile, and Herts Young ¿ìèÊÓÆµless. The school is alive with the spirit of giving, driven by a jam packed ‘Advent’ schedule designed to get everyone involved in the fundraising efforts. This year’s itinerary has been filled with exciting activities, ranging from pupil led lessons and a "Mystery Bucket" challenge to the competitive excitement of the "Elf Auction" and various competitions. Pupils have also enjoyed the classic "Sponge the Teacher" event and a visit to Santa’s Grotto, ensuring the festive atmosphere is matched only by the community’s generosity. Beyond the classroom activities, pupils have been sharing the festive spirit with the wider community. On 18th December, the SCD Senior Choir paid a special visit to Chorleywood Manor Care ¿ìèÊÓÆµ. The residents were treated to a beautiful selection of Christmas carols, featuring performances by members of the Chamber Choir, Evensong Choir, and the Barbershop Choir. Year 12 pupils Immy and Chrissie noted that "it was a very joyful occasion and it was lovely to see the residents joining in and looking so happy." The success of such a busy week relies heavily on pupil leadership, and the school extends a massive vote of thanks to Year 13 for their incredible hard work and dedication. Their enthusiasm have been the driving force behind this week's fundraising efforts. The week is set to conclude on Friday with the Grand Finale: the highly anticipated Sixth Form Revue, promising a spectacular end to a week of community, charity and celebration.
