Supercalifragilistic rehearsals taking place!

Danes Student Journalists, Hannah Garvey and Nia Hanspal, 7S report ...

On the ­4th June, students from Year 7 up to Year 10 and of course the drama staff, are presenting Mary Poppins. There will be dancing, singing and acting. Before Christmas, there was tough competition in the auditions and great excitement when the actors and actresses were given their parts in the performance.

Rosa who is playing one of the starring roles, Jane, said, ‘I feel really excited to be playing a part in Mary Poppins. I auditioned for the play because I thought it would be a great opportunity.’

If you are interested in acting, singing or even dancing, look into the future plays that this school has to offer. Rehearsals take place every week, and students are trying hard to learn their lines.

So come and experience this play and the thrill of watching the performance on the night.

Pupil journalist Sam B secures national 'Student Voices' award

Our  talented pupil, Sam B, Year 9, has been named one of just five winners nationwide in the prestigious ' The Day's Student Voices Young Journalist Awards 2026. Sam B clinched the honour with a compelling, insightful opinion piece titled, “Life Isn't All Sunshine And Rainbows But It's Not Doom And Gloom Either.” The competition judges praised the passion, positivity and exceptional eloquence of Sam’s writing. As part of the winner's package, the article was officially published on The Day’s global Student Voices platform on 15th June, alongside the national announcement of the competition winners. Sam’s award-winning article takes critical aim at the modern media landscape, arguing that mainstream platforms rely on sensationalism and fear to drive reader engagement. The piece contrasts historical anxieties with today's relentless news cycle, which feeds on global catastrophes. While acknowledging real hardships, Sam warns that constant access to bleak updates is mentally exhausting and traps younger generations in a false sense of hopelessness.  Far from advocating for purposeful ignorance, Sam urges readers to stay informed while remembering how far humanity has progressed. The essay highlights that we are living in a golden age of technology and medical achievement.  Ultimately, the award-winning piece serves as a powerful reminder of humanity's inherent resilience and proven ability to thrive in the face of adversity. As Sam beautifully concludes, "It's important to keep positive, because whatever happens, humans always adapt and never lose hope." The entire St Clement Danes community extends its warmest congratulations to Sam on this incredible achievement
