SCD Virtual Summer Concert 2020

Miss Stevens, Head of Performing Arts and Music Faculty, has produced a fabulous Virtual Summer 2020 Concert for the enjoyment of the ¿ìèÊÓÆµ Community, which is available to listen online via SoundCloud. The concert begins with the virtual choir* performing 'Someday', followed by two Year 13 performances which were recorded in the Barbirolli Hall before lockdown. This is followed by a range of performances recorded in lockdown - at home, in the garden and one even featuring the sound of Chorleywood tube in the background!

The concert finishes with a recording of the gospel choir performance made during the Vienna Musical Tour in July 2019, when 80 students and staff members were privileged to perform in Vienna's prestigious St Stephen's Cathedral.

*The virtual choir is made up of over 40 voices each of whom recorded their part to a backing track that Miss Stevens sent out to all choir members. On return of the recordings Miss Stevens added their vocals together to form a choir. The singers are a combination of current students, ex-students, teachers, parents, and friends of SCD.

Miss Stevens extended her thanks to Mrs Deeley for recording the wind and brass groups.

A huge thank you to Miss Stevens for producing such a fantastic concert for the school community's enjoyment, and which showcases the enormous talent that our students display in this musical extravaganza!

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.
