SCD Virtual Christmas Concert 2020

We regrettably were unable to hold our hugely popular Christmas Concert this year due to the current pandemic; however, due to the mastery of our Head of Music, Miss Stevens alongside our Music teacher, Mr Butterfield, we were able to produce a Virtual Christmas Concert for everyone to still enjoy.

Miss Stevens stated “The recordings for this concert are a combination of socially distance recordings in school and solo and family groups at home. I am so grateful for all the entries that were sent in. I hope this concert will bring a sense of hope to you all and I look forward so much to when we can perform and appreciate music together again.”

Students were asked to send in an audio recording of themselves performing a Christmas themed song, either in the form of playing an instrument, singing, acting, either solo or as a family ensemble. It was truly superb to hear our gifted students performing (and some of their talented families supporting), please click below to hear the final recording of the concert.

Virtual CHRISTMAS Concert 2020

A big thank you to Miss Stevens, Mr Butterfield and the entire Performing Arts faculty, for producing such an astounding concert and keeping the Christmas spirit alive for our students, parents, staff and the wider school community, albeit virtually!

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.
