Feelin' Good week !

¿ìèÊÓÆµ Council are arranging a number of events during Hertfordshire County Council’s “Feelin' Good week”. Student members of the Student Union have held a number of events to raise the profile of the week amongst our students.

Feelin' Good Week is a Hertfordshire wide event delivered in schools and the wider community by a range of services and organisations.  The week is an opportunity to promote the importance of emotional wellbeing, to raise awareness of mental ill health and to inform students where to access support if required. It also aims to reduce stigma about mental health problems and encourages students to seek help as a strategy for a happy and successful life.Members of the Student Union’s events team have been working with younger students to raise the profile of the week in school. Many events have been organised encouraging students to talk about their problems and concerns. The students have displayed a number of motivational posters around the school, and sixth form students have produced a powerpoint about mental health which they have shown to Year 10 students at break times. Older students have also spent time with Year 7 students designing emojis, and have also organised a games room at lunchtimes for the benefit of all students. Other events have included a Zumba class and a cake sale.

Students have been encouraged. to write post it notes sharing what makes them happy, and these are displayed on a board outside the library so everyone can share these good feelings! Staff have also thrown themselves into the spirit of feeling good week, with members of staff leaving positive thoughts and small gifts for other members of staff.

Well done to our Student Union members who have contributed to raising the profile of mental health, and encouraging all our students to feel good about themselves!

Everyone’s feelin’ good!

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.
