Sixth Form Social Events

There are a number of Sixth Form social events which take place during the course of the year. Such events provide the highlights of the year for many students and are very enjoyable occasions. The main events are:

Socials

Socials allow students the opportunity to enjoy social events outside of normal school time. Such events are usually organised by the Prefects and take various forms, including dinners both in school and in local restaurants, theatre trips and paint-balling activities, such as paint-balling or laser quest.

Music Competition

This major event, much loved by the students, takes place before the Michaelmas half-term in Centenary Theatre. Singing together is a great way to enable the students to get to know each other and all students perform on stage! An external adjudicator presents cups and prizes for the best performances.

School Quiz

This is another excellent bonding opportunity for the students as the emphasis is placed on collaboration and problem-solving in this huge Sixth Form quiz.

Mixed Lacrosse

This event is hugely popular amongst the students. The boys have an opportunity to try their hand at an unfamiliar sport and the girls show them how it is really done.

Football Competition

A mixed 9-a-side football competition is held in the last week of the Summer Term.

The ‘Final Fling’

This major formal event for all Year 13 leavers takes place at the end of the Summer Term and is organised by a committee independently of the school. It consists of a black tie dinner-dance and has recently been held with great success at Shendish Manor.
