News & Events

Commemoration Day The final event of the year that took place was the Senior School Commemoration Day. Although restrictions meant no parents could attend they all watched from home via a live stream for a virtual celebration. This year’s guest speaker was Mrs Jane Prescott, Headmistress of Portsmouth High School and President of the Girls School Association. We were delighted to welcome Mrs Prescott who spoke via Zoom to the Year 10 and 11 pupils.

Last Night Supper We were so delighted that the Last Night Supper event was able to go ahead in the final week of term. The Year 11’s all looked absolutely stunning and were welcomed to the event by the rest of the school after the Race for Life charity event. Although a number of changes had to be made to the usual format it was lovely that the girls had the chance to show off their showstopping outfits. The staff and Year 11’s then enjoyed a fantastic evening dancing, taking photos in the photo booth and eating an absolutely delicious Mediterranean buffet provided by Mrs Wheeler Smith and her team and finished off with a chocolate fountain! Mrs Rance and her team transformed the marquee into a magical midsummer themed space which really enhanced the evening.The weather was kind so canapés and drinks were enjoyed on the lawn and it was wonderful to be able to relax together and celebrate all that Year 11 have achieved in this challenging year. It certainly was a night to remember with so much laughter and was thoroughly enjoyed by all.
