Easter concert hits new heights

Performances at last night's Easter concert hit new heights - and no, we are not just thinking of Mr Evans' vocal range in Bohemian Rhapsody. It was, as ever, an eclectic programme with audience members remarking upon the sheer depth of quality throughout the performances. There were breathtaking solos juxtaposed with impressive items from both orchestras and a range of ensembles. Both the junior and senior choirs also performed, but it was the Boys' Choir and Not White Noise's rendition of Queen's classic which perhaps stole the show - not least for fabulous vocal performances, an epic guitar solo and, of course, Miss Stevens' final note on the gong. Well done to all the performers who took part, particularly those in Year 13 who played their final concert at the school. Thank you to all the staff who helped put on such an enjoyable night of music making - the music department, peripatetic teachers and accompanyists, the Parents' Association for providing refreshments and all those who helped behind the scenes with admin or caretaking duties.

Charities Week 2025

The halls of St Clement Danes School have been buzzing with holiday cheer this week as the annual Charities Week is officially in full swing. As the Autumn Term draws to a close, pupils and staff have united to raise vital funds for three incredible causes: Endometriosis UK, Spread a Smile, and Herts Young Homeless. The school is alive with the spirit of giving, driven by a jam packed ‘Advent’ schedule designed to get everyone involved in the fundraising efforts. This year’s itinerary has been filled with exciting activities, ranging from pupil led lessons and a "Mystery Bucket" challenge to the competitive excitement of the "Elf Auction" and various competitions. Pupils have also enjoyed the classic "Sponge the Teacher" event and a visit to Santa’s Grotto, ensuring the festive atmosphere is matched only by the community’s generosity. Beyond the classroom activities, pupils have been sharing the festive spirit with the wider community. On 18th December, the SCD Senior Choir paid a special visit to Chorleywood Manor Care Home. The residents were treated to a beautiful selection of Christmas carols, featuring performances by members of the Chamber Choir, Evensong Choir, and the Barbershop Choir. Year 12 pupils Immy and Chrissie noted that "it was a very joyful occasion and it was lovely to see the residents joining in and looking so happy." The success of such a busy week relies heavily on pupil leadership, and the school extends a massive vote of thanks to Year 13 for their incredible hard work and dedication. Their enthusiasm have been the driving force behind this week's fundraising efforts. The week is set to conclude on Friday with the Grand Finale: the highly anticipated Sixth Form Revue, promising a spectacular end to a week of community, charity and celebration.
