Easter Concert 2018

Tonight’s Easter concert yet again provided talent, emotion and virtuosity, this time accompanied by a … fancy dress vulture. Only at St Clement Danes! As Mr Sutherland rightly said at the end, when you have been at the school for a while, you forget that this is not normal for a secondary school music concert; our audience were certainly treated to a fantastic set of performances tonight. From incredible solos to note perfect ensembles, an eclectic mix of composers in a varied programme was thoroughly enjoyed by all. It was a fitting send off for some talented Year 13s in their last ever SCD concert. Danes Student Journalist, Connie O'Mahony 7D, who sings in Junior Choir, said “It’s an amazing opportunity to sing the songs you love with people who love them as much as you do”. The enjoyment of the students was certainly apparent, as those in the audience will testify. Many thanks to Miss Stevens, Mr Butterfield, the music prefects, peris and Mrs Roxon for all their hard work.

Year 8 Swimmers Make Waves at County Championships

We are delighted to announce that two of our Year 8 pupils, Sam C and Grace F, have achieved significant success in the pool, qualifying for and competing at the prestigious County Swimming Championships. Qualification for Counties is a major milestone in the swimming world. To be eligible, swimmers must achieve strict published qualifying times and rank within the top 25 competitors in their age group across the entire county. Both students have demonstrated exceptional talent to reach this elite standard. Sam has secured his place in an incredible variety of events, demonstrating his versatility across both sprints and long-distance endurance races. Representing Berkhamsted Swim Club, Sam will be competing at the Westminster Lodge Leisure Centre in St Albans throughout January. His comprehensive schedule includes: Freestyle: 50m, 100m, 200m, 400m, 800m, and 1500m Butterfly: 50m, 100m, and 200m Individual Medley: 100m, 200m, and 400m Matching this high standard of performance is Grace F, who represents the U13 age group. Grace has already secured a fantastic 9th place ranking in the county for the 100m breaststroke. Beyond this individual success, Grace is a dedicated member of Ricky Swim Club and a vital part of the SCD team, regularly representing the school in the Herts League. Reaching this level requires a sustained and high level of commitment. Over the past eight months, both swimmers have balanced intense training schedules and regular licensed galas alongside their academic studies. Their success is a testament not only to their athletic ability but also to their discipline and excellent time management. Please join us in congratulating Grace on her top10 ranking and wis
