On Wednesday, we had the privilege to compete in the Prep Schools’ Choir of the Year competition. Set in Cadogan Hall in the heart of Chelsea and home of the Royal Philharmonic orchestra, pupils sung to a sell-out audience who enjoyed a spectacular choral celebration. The standard was high as over 300 choristers from a…
We could not have asked for a more enjoyable start to the Summer Term. As the sun shone on the grounds on Monday morning, the children skipped into school sharing news of their holidays be it of our highly successful Normandy trip, IAPS Chess Championship performances, tales from the ski slopes or simply enjoying that…
These past twelve weeks have simply flown by with an extraordinary breadth of highlights to celebrate.
