In the run up to Pi Day (13/4), some Year 7 and 8 pupils have been experimenting with probability and Buffon’s Needle experiment.

We are excited about our new podcast series to be launched soon! Our first one was recorded today. Rosie and Phoenix interviewed current parent David Strettle, an accomplished Rugby player who played for Harlequins and Saracens, as well as representing England. Watch this space!
There is nothing as delightful, or as guaranteed to get you feeling Christmassy, as an EYFS nativity!
Tuesday’s performance didn’t fail to disappoint. The children poured their energy into their lines and sang their songs brilliantly. The staff encouraged (and occasionally gently cajoled) like professional stage managers and there were the odd bonus moments when things ever-so-slightly didn’t go to plan.
Well done to all the children and staff who gave us such a treat on Tuesday with Baarmy Bethlehem. It was pure joy from start to finish!
