✨ Ending the Year with Festive Fun and Thoughtful Reflection ✨
11Z wrapped up the term by making beautiful Christingles, bringing a warm festive touch to their day.
Meanwhile, our Anti-Discrimination Club led a thought-provoking community meeting for Disability History Month, focusing on the important message that not all disabilities are visible. They also educated students on some lesser-known disabilities, sparking meaningful conversations across school.
Our Crews joined in by creating profiles of inspirational people who have disabilities – a fantastic way to celebrate diversity and inclusion.

🎶✨ Christmas Concert Celebration 🎄
We welcomed families into the Talbot Theatre for our annual Christmas Concert and it truly was a wonderful evening. The programme was packed with festive favourites performed by our Choir, Senior Choir, the Ultraviolet school band and a number of talented soloists.
It was lovely to see how much our families enjoyed the evening, with the audience joining in and adding to the atmosphere. A huge thank you to Mr Calderbank, Head of Performance, for his hard work and dedication in bringing the concert together so successfully, and a special thank you to everyone who came along and got involved. Your support made the evening even more memorable.
