I am delighted to confirm that our annual Christmas Concert will take place on Tuesday 17th December at 6:00 pm. The Concert will feature several soloists as well as regular ensemble groups such as the School Choir and the School Band. This event provides a fantastic opportunity for the pupils and students to showcase their musical talent, and the evening is always enjoyed by both the performers and the audience.
If you would like to attend, tickets can be purchased via Scopay for £4 per person and collected from Pupil Services at the end of the day. We hope to see you there to kick start the Christmas holiday period!
The Autumn term will finish at 12.30 pm on Thursday 19th December, and will be a non-school uniform day, with pupils and students encouraged to wear a Christmas Jumper for a donation to our nominated charities.
Please remind your children that they must ensure they are dressed appropriately for the school environment and the cold weather.
Thank you for your support.
What an unforgettable day! Our trip to Bletchley Park, the historic site of secret codebreaking during World War II, was an incredible journey into the past.
From stepping into the huts where Alan Turing and his brilliant colleagues worked tirelessly, to witnessing the reconstruction of the famous Enigma machine, we learned how their efforts helped shape the course of history.
Highlights of the trip included:
✨ Trying our hand at codebreaking and cracking some puzzles ourselves!
✨ Exploring interactive exhibits that brought wartime intelligence to life.
✨ Learning about the incredible teamwork, perseverance, and innovation of the codebreakers.

Christmas Dinner this year will be available on Tuesday 10th and Wednesday 11th December at a cost of £4.70 and will be ticketed.
If your child would like a Christmas dinner, please can this be pre-ordered and paid for on Scopay by the end of the day on Tuesday 3rd December 2024. Once purchased, please ask your child to collect their Christmas Lunch Ticket from Pupil Services where they will be issued a ticket with their name on for the respective day the dinner has been ordered for.
Free school meal pupils may collect a ticket from Pupil Services at no additional cost.
Please note this will use the whole of their free school meal allowance for that day so there will be no funds available for other purchases unless their account is topped up beforehand.
The Hopeworx Food Hub is a local charity which runs a food bank to provide emergency food parcels to help those who find themselves in a crisis. They also collect daily surplus food from supermarkets and other outlets and coordinate collection by other charities which, in turn, provide support to families in need.
Hopeworx have often helped a number of families within our school community and are always looking for donations, especially at this time of year. In particular, they provide approximately 100 Christmas Hampers to local families, please see the list of items below they would like to collect.
If you would like to make a donation, you can either take items directly to their centre at 33 Brook Road, Rayleigh, SS6 7XJ or Pupil Services, by the 5th of December.
Thank you
