Gym and Dance Display 2020

Congratulations to nearly two hundred students who took part in the annual Gym and Dance Display, which was held in the Barbirolli Hall on Wednesday 12th and Thursday 13th February 2020.

The students performed twenty-five pieces including Vaulting, Trampette work, Floor gymnastics, team gymnastics, Contemporary dance, Street dance, Lyrical, Bollywood and Modern dance. 

The Elite Dance girls' team showcased a snippet of the routine that they will perform at the Hertfordshire Schools' Gala, which will be held at the Royal Albert Hall on Sunday 8th March. The team have been selected to open the show from a shortlist of many other local schools. 

PE teacher and Gym and Dance Display Organiser Miss Tucker said, ‘The students have worked extremely hard since September to learn, improve and perfect all of these routines ready for the show. The enthusiasm and motivation that each student has brought to the Gym and Dance has been phenomenal. A massive well done to everyone who has taken part!’

Miss Tucker extended thanks to Sixth form helpers: Kitty Sharland, Grace Barrett, Molly Kay, Sasha Thompson, Ben Matthews and Ben Edwards, all of whom made an invaluable contribution towards the organisation and running of the event.

The Lighting team, comprising of Carl Taylor, Chris Ayyildiz and Chip Nicholas, were also praised for their help. Miss Tucker said, ‘Their standard and level of expertise helped to bring the show to life.’

Miss Tucker is grateful to all the parents who supported the production in many ways, including helping to make and provide costumes.

Last, but not least, well done to all the performers and to Miss Tucker and fellow staff for all their hard work in creating such a wonderful spectacle!

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.
