Thank you for your supporting the Anchor Fund

Thank you to all the new Year 7 and Sixth form parents who have donated to the school's Anchor Fund this term, as well as to all of our parents who donate to the Anchor Fund. Many of our parents choose to donate by standing order each month- this is our preferred method as it is a consistent source of funds which helps to enhance the resources that our faculties provide for your children.

We are also hugely grateful to all the parents who have donated through the more recent method of payment - via the ParentPay portal. Parents can top up their child's cashless catering at the same time as donating to the Anchor Fund- what could be easier!

The Trustees of the Anchor Fund meet each term and consider applications for funds from across our faculties- all of which directly improve our students' education. Last week the Anchor Fund committee met and granted £8,000 to the faculties and the school.  This makes a massive difference to the students’ learning experience.  This additional support for the school has never been more needed as we face increased costs and are having to find new ways to provide the full curriculum experience to the students. 

Please see the gallery below for a snapshot of some of the fantastic items that have been purchased as a result of your donations.

Thank you!

Please do consider donating to the Anchor Fund- if you are not donating and would like to do so please click here for further information about donating via regular standing order. You can also make donations by ParentPay and also by Virgin Money Giving.

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.
