Charities Week Presentations

On Friday 17th May representatives from the Lynda Jackson Macmillan Centre, situated at Mount Vernon Hospital, and the Campaign Against Living Miserably (CALM) visited the school. They spoke to the students about their respective charities at assembly. Both charities were delighted to receive a cheque for the fantastic amount of £3,700 from Charities Prefect Zak Woodcock. The UK Sepsis Trust were unable to attend but will also receive £3,700 from the students' fundraising efforts.  An amazing £11000 was raised by our Sixth Form Charities Committee during a very successful Charities week last December. Well done to all the students who organised this event, and thank you to all  the students and their families for their generosity in supporting Charities Week, which benefitted these three very worthy charities.

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
