Posted on: 20th Mar 2026Impressive low scores as pupils compete at Beaconsfield Golf clubOn Tuesday 3rd March, 16 pupils represented the school in the annual SCD Pupil Golf Competition at the prestigious Beaconsfield Golf Club. The day was defined by fine weather and a course in immaculate condition, providing the perfect stage for some truly exceptional performances. It was particularly encouraging to see a mix of new faces joining the regular participants, with all pupils taking full advantage of the world-class facilities on offer throughout the day. The competition remained fierce until the final hole, but it was Josh R (Year 13) who ultimately secured victory, successfully retaining his title with an incredibly impressive score of three under par (69). This victory serves as a fitting milestone for Josh as he prepares for the next chapter of his sporting journey; following his A-levels, he will be moving to the United States to enroll at a university in Idaho, where he will continue to pursue his professional golf career. The leaderboard reflected the high standard of play across the field, with Freddy M (Year 9) taking second place with a solid three over par (75), and Luke M (Year 13) securing third with a resilient five over par (77). The event once again highlighted the depth of sporting talent within the school and the commitment of our pupils to excelling in their extracurricular pursuits.

The event saw pupils across the school channeling their inner detectives as they embarked on a mission to track down characters suspected of stealing the Queen of Hearts' tarts. During break and lunchtime, staff members were stationed across the site, waiting to be interrogated by eager groups of pupils. To solve the mystery, participants had to locate specific staff members and ask them exactly what type of baked good they had been eating. The excitement began at break time, when pupils collected their scavenger hunt forms and began deciphering a series of clues designed to lead them to the "culprits." The atmosphere was electric as pupils hurried to discover who among the staff had been "caught" with a stolen tart. The event proved to be incredibly popular, drawing a large and enthusiastic crowd. Whether fueled by an intense love of literature or the competitive pursuit of winning sweets, the pupils' engagement made the afternoon a resounding success. A huge thank you to the staff who participated and helped bring the world of Wonderland to life for our pupils.
