Sports students prepare for athletics season in Lanzarote!

Forty three students visited Lanzarote with PE staff during the Easter holidays, and spent seven days at Club La Santa. The visit is an annual event during which students can increase their fitness levels in preparation for the athletics season on their return to school for the summer term.

Twenty boys and twenty girls from Years 7-10 attended the trip and three Year 13 students also joined the trip as leaders.

The students had an enjoyable time whilst improving their skills in a non-competitive environment. At the end of the trip, a friendly pentathlon was held, which PE teacher Mr Garden’s team won. Miss Welford, Assistant Head of the PE Faculty, reported that the students worked hard at their fitness levels, and had a very productive visit in a lovely environment. The students are now looking forward to participating in the numerous athletics events during the summer term.

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.
