MICHAELMAS
TERM 2022 IN
UK’S TOP SCHOOLS

Introducing our new newsletter ‘The Arrow’, to keep you up to date with all the latest happenings at St. Edmund’s. Two arrows form an integral part of the St. Edmund’s school crest and the name is a nod to our important history and traditions. It was even the name of the school newsletter back in the 1970’s and into the 1980’s!

We plan to issue the Michaelmas and Lent term publications in a digital format to reflect our efforts as a school to be more environmentally friendly and end the Summer term with a printed publication.

FROM THE HEADMASTER

As I read through the pages of this delightful snapshot of St. Edmund’s over the Michaelmas term, I marvel at the plethora of events, activities and amazing opportunities we have provided our pupils over the term. The end of term has been filled with wonderful Christmas celebrations including Christmas markets, carol concerts, Christmas lunches and activities but when I cast my mind back to the beginning of term when we had many new starters, with 30 alone in Form 7, I think how much we can all accomplish in one term. I have been proud to see how the new children have all settled into life at St. Edmund’s and a huge part of that is down to the kindness and support of our current pupils.

NEWS FROM OUR EYFS FORMS NURSERY AND RECEPTION

NATIVITY

One of the highlights in the Michaelmas term calendar is undoubtedly the Nursery and Reception Nativity play.

This year the Farley Hall was the fantastic backdrop, where the children delighted their parents and grandparents with their beautiful singing and storytelling, all looking wonderful in their costumes on a stage bedecked with Christmas fun.

POTTERY FUN

Nursery and Reception children enjoyed a fantastic pottery experience with Mrs Church this term. They all had a turn at using the pottery wheel and explored making different patterns and textures with the clay. They also absolutely loved being able to stomp on the clay in their bare feet!

02 THE ARROW

ZOOLAB RETURNS

Another fantastic visit from Zoolab! Nursery and Reception children all really enjoyed meeting Stevie the snake, Ginny the tarantula, Nessie the gerbil, Lemonade the leopard gecko and Buttons the giant land snail. We found out so many interesting things about all of these amazing animals today, including the fact that a land snail has 10,000 teeth.

CHILDREN IN NEED

Children and staff in Nursery had a spots and stripes day for Children in Need on Friday 18th November. We enjoyed some fun Pudsey activities, including a Pudsey workout and hope to have helped raise some money for the charity.

NEWS FROM THE LOWER PREP NATURE CLUB

On Tuesdays this term, Dr Inward has led a Nature Club for Form 4. She has used the school grounds to help them with leaf identification, bug hunting and even an in-depth fungus foray. This has encouraged the children to understand the natural world that is right on their doorstep!

YOUNG SHAKESPEARE COMPANY

Forms 3 and 4 were privileged to spend an afternoon in the presence of the Young Shakespeare Company who put on a commanding performance of Twelfth Night. The pupils were heavily involved in the production and by having the story explained as it unfurled, this proved a very positive introduction to the works of Shakespeare.

LEGO ROBOTICS

Forms 1 to 4 undertook the STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths) day of Lego robotics, being guided through the use of iPads and technology to create their own moving creation.

NEWS FROM THE LOWER PREP

The Prep School have had a busy start to their year, making the most of all opportunities St. Edmund’s has to offer. They kick-started the term with activity and film evenings. A chance to enjoy supper together, relax and have fun!

One of the many highlights of this term has been History; Form 6 are now experts on the Norman Conquest. Alongside their History lessons, they spent Friday Activities painting their Norman shields in preparation for a re-enactment of the Battle of Hastings. The Saxons positioned themselves at the top of the hill at the end of the field, watching over the Normans below. The battle commenced to the sounds of battle cries with Mr Kalinski directing proceedings on his horn. Fortunately, no children were harmed by flying arrows and the afternoon certainly brought our History lessons to life. Form 5 enjoyed an Anglo Saxon talk and had the chance to handle Saxon weapons, as well as take part in a mock trial.

The Form 6 pupils were delighted to be asked to assist with the 11+ taster morning in November. They enjoyed meeting new people, making friends, participating in the team games and answering lots of questions. They proved themselves to be excellent ambassadors for the school. Well done Form 6!

On the sports field, the Prep School enjoyed many matches in football, rugby, hockey and netball, as well as participating in the annual Inter-Schools cross country. Form Takers enjoy the weekly match reports on a Thursday morning and it’s been wonderful to see every pupil enjoy the match experience, in particular the match teas!

After half term, Forms 5 and 6 experienced a wonderful trip to Chichester Festival Theatre to watch Famous Five the Musical. Reading Rests have seen a surge of Enid Blyton books borrowed from the library and the pupils were inspired by the theatre craft, set and performances of the cast.

Prep School pupils have a busy extra-curricular programme. Pupils have been rehearsing for James and the Giant Peach in performing arts club as well as taking part in Shrek rehearsals, LAMDA lessons, war hammer battles, debating, swim squad and music performances in the piano and choral concerts.

The pop and chapel choirs have also been working hard on pieces for Christmas. St Edmund’s at Christmas is a particularly special place and we know that their contribution will enhance the spirit of the season for the whole community.

As always, the Great Escape evenings were a highlight of the term. In the weeks preceding, there was an excited buzz around school as they discussed tactics and teams.

The children have all worked hard and played hard over the past few weeks of term and every pupil should be proud of their achievements. They all deserve a very well-earned Christmas break and we look forward to more adventures and experiences together in 2023!

06 THE ARROW

Senior Prep debating was a delight as always. Both teams showed great strength and conviction in their debates and it was a close call with Arrow winning by just a few points. Well done to Arrow and for working well and coming together as a team. You earnt this!

FORM 8 DUTIES

As pupils reach the top year of the Prep School (Form 8) they each receive a duty for the term to help with the running of the school. It is a great way of giving them some responsibility and see how they respond to it, but also it is really helpful in the organisation of different areas around the school. Some of the duties include raising and lowering the school flag, handing out Hymn books in chapel, collecting and emptying all the recycling bins and assisting staff with monitoring break times. It’s great to hear some of the positive feedback from staff as pupils step up to their area of responsibility.

SENIOR ACADEMIC

Education is never static and Form 9 have thoroughly enjoyed being the first-year group to take part in the school’s new three-year programme for GCSEs and the introduction of Microsoft Surfaces. The new subjects of Food Technology and Computer Science have been remarkably successful, and my thanks go the hard work of Mrs Tuhill and Mr Reckless.

Traditional trips have gone ahead with the Royal School of Artillery at Larkhill being an explosive hit. Form 9 completed their assessments in the Jubilee Hall and its associated suite of exam rooms under the watchful eye of our new exams officer, Mrs Nikki Smart.

Form 10 have embraced their option subjects and it’s been a busy term. Art pupils visited Tate Modern looking for inspiration. Drama pupils went to see the Crucible while PE and Sports Science pupils took up new sporting opportunities. All the pupils and one Academic Deputy Head benefited from Learning Performance lessons on dealing with procrastination!

Form 11 have been busy in their final year at St Ed’s with a big push to get through each syllabus with some subjects even finishing this term. In Art, pupils took part in their mock projects allowing a huge range of creative pieces. Classicists travelled to the British Museum and Drama pupils went to see Othello. They all now depart for the Christmas holiday with a pile of revision booklet shaped ‘Christmas presents’.

On a more personal note, it was wonderful to see so many OSE’s from the Senior school at Bonfire Night and though I can feel grey hair sprouting as they tell me about how they drove in, they do come with great memories. Their stories of success in pastures new underlines the work we do in giving pupils the knowledge and skills they need for the future.

08 THE ARROW

SENIOR PASTORAL

The Michaelmas term has been particularly damp, but it has not touched the spirits of the Senior pupils.

Form 9 started the term being whipped into shape with a visit from the Army’s Youth Outreach team with teamwork and the rapid building of collapsible tanks taking centre stage. Form 10 and 11 headed into the wilderness with Duke of Edinburgh bronze and silver expeditions and all of them managed to return in one piece.

This term sees a number of pupil-led assemblies on topics as diverse as the police, unconscious bias, the Saturnalia festival, and a St Ed’s Bake-Off assembly too! Musically we have had piano and senior concerts showcasing great talent, and setting a wonderful example to the younger pupils. My thanks go to the hard work of

the staff and pupils who made these events such a success.

We have very much enjoyed regularly meeting with the Form 10 pupils and mentoring the Form 9’s as they began their first term in the Senior school too.

We finish the term with our first senior Film Night and what is always regarded as the most St Ed’s of events, the Great Escape!

FOOD TECH DEPARTMENT

LEITHS ACADEMY COURSE

Congratulations to all of Form 7 and Form 8 who completed their ‘Essential Cooking Skills’ certificate this term with the Leiths School of Cookery. They learnt to cook a selection of healthy, balanced meals such as spicy bean burgers, Spanish tortilla and sausage a sweet potato traybake.

FUTURE CHEF COMPETITION

Well done to Otto D and Alfred S who reached the final of the UK Future Chef competition. They were highly commended by the judges for their bread making and pasta making skills and both received certificates for their success.

THE ARROW 09

NEW HEADS OF SCHOOL ANNOUNCED

As Woodrow Wilson famously said, “I feel the responsibility of the occasion. Responsibility is proportionate to opportunity ” and with these words echoing around the school corridors, the Headmaster was delighted to award Tom W and Arabella T (Form 11) as Heads of Senior School and Lorenzo G and Tabitha F (Form 8) as Heads of Prep School.

Many congratulations to you all on these coveted and incredibly important roles. We look forward to seeing you guide your peers over the forth-coming year.

In the next issue of the Arrow our Heads of Senior Houses and Divisional Leaders in our Prep School plan to tell us more about what their roles entail and will update us on some of their main tasks and responsibilities as Heads of School.

ICELAND

During the summer holidays, some of the Seniors were lucky enough to go to Iceland on a trip of a lifetime. The pupils had an action packed week and made the most of the 24 hours of sunlight.

One of the highlights was the trek into a Glacier where they pupils got to see layers of ice from hundreds of years ago and went into the chapel. They went to many waterfalls during the week, all of which were amazing. The one you can see here is Skogafoss Waterfall which was 25m wide and 60m high. You can walk right up to the bottom of the fall where they all got a little wet from the spray. The pupils were also lucky enough to see Gullfoss which is one of Iceland’s most iconic and beloved waterfalls in the southwest of Iceland.

They explored the streets of Reykjavik and got to see the most incredible church Hallgrimskirkja, where the spire sits at a height of 74.5m and the tower provides amazing 360 views of Reykjavik and beyond. They went to the Geothermal field and managed to see the water burst out of the ground not just once but four times while we were there. The pupils were also lucky enough to go whale watching where we saw Minke Whales and a Humpback Whale.

STAFF FOCUS

INTRODUCING JANOS FABIAN

Music has always been my passion and as a teenager I was keen to learn and develop my skills and understanding of music as much as possible. Originally from Hungary, I achieved a BA in Solo Singing Teaching and Performing of Vocal Chamber Music at The Conservatory Bela Bartok (University of Miskolc) in 2009. I went on to complete my PGCE in Further Education and Training at the University of Portsmouth in 2017 and in May 2017, just two months before graduation, I was appointed as a Music Teacher at St Edward’s Royal Free Ecumenical Middle School, Windsor.

Between 2019 and 2021, I completed an MA in Music Psychology in Education, Performance and Wellbeing at the University of Sheffield.

My MA dissertation title was “Boys’ Singing: Selfrepresentation and identity affected by the change of the vocal folds during adolescence”

Keen to continue developing my research even further, I started my postgraduate research in Music Psychology as a PhD candidate at the University of Leeds in 2021. My PhD Thesis title is ‘Boys Singing: The change of the vocal folds during adolescence: the psychological impact.’

I am really enjoying working at St Edmund’s; the school has an outstanding choral and instrumental heritage which I am proud to be associated with.

14 THE ARROW

This year, pupils in Form 7 and Form 8 are working within the framework of the PreSenior Baccalaureate (PSB) for the first time. PSB replaces Common Entrance at 13+.

The PSB programme of study provides pupils with a flexible curriculum to help prepare them for the challenges of life as young adults academically, personally, socially, culturally and spiritually. It does this by actively developing and tracking knowledge, skills and attitude.

Most importantly, the PSB enables us at St. Edmund’s to incorporate the full range of our academic programme into a formal assessment framework. This means that our pupils are

TECHNOLOGY UPDATE

now able to receive external accreditation for their excellent work in subjects such as Classical Civilisation, Food Technology, Design Technology, Computer Science, Sports Science, and PE. The PSB helps better guide our pupils towards making the right choices for their GCSE options, which they choose towards the end of Form 8.

Dr Roberts is the school’s designated ‘PSB Leader’. Please do not hesitate to contact him with any questions about PSB at St. Edmund’s. (n.roberts@saintedmunds.co.uk)

DIGITAL LEARNING AT ST. EDMUND’S

Following the successful launch of the St. Edmund’s digital learning programme for the senior school, it has been fantastic to see the children in Forms 9 and 10 using their Microsoft Surface devices to complete a variety of lesson activities, assignments and coursework set by their teachers.

To see an example of the students using their devices in a classroom, click the image to the right to watch a short video of some of our Form 10 students creating models and using their devices to make animated GIF files to help

them learn and understand the process of cell division in a recent GCSE biology lesson. This term has also seen the implementation of the Sora library app (an online library of audio and eBooks) and Seneca Premium - a new revision tool to help our senior students consolidate concepts learnt in lessons and prepare for their GCSE assessments.

Form 8 will start their Microsoft Surface device training next term which will include use of the devices and the following activities:

• Introduction to digital learning, logging in and use of Microsoft Surface devices, Teams, Office 365 and Senso monitoring

• Use and syncing of OneDrive cloud and desktop folders

• Use of Microsoft Whiteboard and digital inking

• Touch-typing sessions using the English Type program

• Collaboration using group use of Office apps and files

SHREK

Rehearsals for next terms production of Shrek are now fully underway, with the cast working hard to learn an array of songs and dances. The bar has been set extremely high, after last year’s performance of Oliver but the early signs are that we have another hit on our hands!

Performances will take place on 15, 16 and 17 March and details on how to get tickets will be announced soon!

PERFORMING ARTS CLUB

Performing Arts Club are busy preparing for their performances of ‘James and the Giant Peach’. They are exploring what the different characteristics of their characters are, to help them develop the role for performance.

FORM 9 BLOOD BROTHERS

Form 9 drama students have begun exploring the play Blood Brothers this term, as part of the studied text section of the GCSE syllabus. They have been learning about the historical context of the play, as well as exploring various ways of interpreting the text in performance, including the use of lighting and sound.

GCSE DRAMA TRIPS / FORM 10

CRUCIBLE

This term, our GCSE pupils have been treated to not one, but two theatre trips. The first was a visit to the National Theatre to see ‘The Crucible’ and the second was to see ‘Othello’ at the Yvonne Arnaud. Both plays are part of the GCSE Drama syllabus and provided the pupils with an excellent insight into the text and how it can be interpreted in performance. The Form 10’s have also been exploring the play in lessons and learning about what it was like to live in a Puritan community.

16 THE ARROW
DRAMA UPDATE

Form 3 have been finding out about Aboriginal art and symbolism and are currently working on developing some amazing collages using a variety of materials to reflect their own designs for their Aboriginal art.

Form 4 have been developing their knowledge of Mayan weaving. They have practised their weaving skills with paper strips and are now working in small groups, weaving on old unused canvas frames (we love recycling in Art!) Eventually, the woven pieces will be displayed as a huge patchwork of weaves together and will look fantastic!

Form 5 have been developing their observational drawing skills. They have practised drawing fish from direct observation and used a variety of media such as pencil, watercolour and oil pastels – this is in preparation for working on batiks next term where they will be using molten wax and fabric dyes.

Form 6 are currently working on their sewing skills! They have researched a chosen artist and designed a textile wall-hanging which they are currently constructing using a variety of fabrics, machine and hand sewing. They have learnt a lot of new skills in this project and have particularly enjoyed using the machines – luckily no one has sewn their fingers or themselves to the machines yet!

Form 7 have been embracing Egyptian life. They have each designed an animal which they have made out of air-dry clay – the next step is to ‘mummify’ the animal using bandages. Next term, they will be learning how to cast a sarcophagus around their mummified animal using modroc (the material using to mend broken bones!) and will be painting them with acrylic paints.

Form 8 are currently working on a year-long project based on the ocean. This term they have experimented with a variety of media – creating some amazing observational studies. Next term they will be continuing with the ocean theme and developing some ceramic bowls decorated with textures and imagery based on corals and shells.

Form 9 have made a great start on their Art GCSE. Their first coursework project is based on their own identity. This term they have been gathering their visual research and have found out about the work of Grayson Perry. They are currently working on vases, using the coil construction method and will be decorating these with relief imagery connected to their own identity and beliefs.

Form 10 are working on their first coursework project too, based on the Everyday. They will be developing lots of work based around this theme over the next year and learning a lot of new techniques, before developing their own ideas for a final piece in the Lent term.

REWARDING OUR PREP PUPILS

WHAT ARE PLUS POINTS?

All pupils in the prep school carry a conduct card, in the colour of their Division with them at all times. The top section of the card is allocated to plus points. A child may earn a Plus Point at any time and for any positive contribution, be it academic, sport, politeness, helpfulness or good manners to name but a few.

WHAT IS A STAR?

When a pupil has earned ten plus points on his card, then this is called a Star. This is taken to the Headmaster where it will be signed into the register and the pupil will be rewarded with a ball in their divisional colour to put in the ‘Ball tubes’ (….and some sweets or HM’s points card, which can be redeemed against various St Ed’s merchandise).

The sweet option can be substituted for ‘charity tokens’ (one token per sweet) that can be posted into the charity collection box supporting a variety of charities selected by the pupils.

WHAT IS A SHOW UP?

For an outstanding performance in any area of the school curriculum a pupil may be awarded a Show Up. This is then presented to the Headmaster who records it on the register and rewards the pupil with a Show Up pencil, a ball to place in the ball tubes (…and some sweets and/or charity tokens, or HM’s points card).

DIVISIONAL MEETINGS

In weekly Divisional meetings , those children who have done most to contribute to the success of the Division are celebrated. All Plus Points, stars and show ups count towards the Divisional contest that runs throughout the term and contribute positively towards the cumulative total of points upon which the winners are awarded the Divisional party at the end of the term.

Prizes are also awarded in the end of term assembly, for children within year groups who have earned the greatest numbers of stars and show ups throughout the term.

Discipline at St. Edmund’s is based on common sense lines. It is based less on a set of rules (although there are a few) and more on a set of moral values that are in the school creed, which is displayed in all classrooms and is printed in pupils’ prep diaries.

18 THE ARROW
REWARD & RECOGNITION

REWARDING OUR SENIOR PUPILS

At St. Edmund’s we operate a comprehensive reward system. Our pupils thrive in an atmosphere of high expectation and achievement and we ensure there is great recognition for success and effort.

Each merit also equates to a House point to go towards the end of term House competition and the winning House enjoys a pizza lunch during the following first half of term!

The pupils can also claim ‘Stodge’ (sweets) from the Deputy Heads (Senior school) twice a week for their merits as well as from the Headmaster. Another reward is that each pair of merits allow the pupils to visit Grayshott village during their lunch hour.

In our end of term assemblies we award prizes for the two pupils in each year who have gained the highest number of merits. This is a keenly fought competition!

Pupils in the Senior school can be awarded a ‘Green Slip’ for excellent work, effort or showing positive citizenship, which they then pass to their Tutor. Five of the green slips equates to a ‘merit’. Merits can also be awarded straight away in the child’s planner for exceptional work, effort or again citizenship.

THE ARROW 19

EQUALITY, DIVERSITY & INCLUSION (EDI) AT ST EDMUND’S

Mr Kalinski was appointed at the start of the 2022 academic year as our new Diversity and Inclusion Lead and is already making a big impression at St. Edmund’s as he focuses on building on our strong sense of community to create a lasting ethos of belonging, representation and inclusivity. Since becoming a teacher, Mr Kalinski has taught in primary and secondary school settings, working with children from a range of cultural backgrounds. Before joining the teaching profession, he was Managing Director of a glazing company where he was responsible for developing business strategy and managing HR.

As our new Diversity and Inclusion Lead, what are your main responsibilities?

The primary purpose of the role is to seek opportunities to make St. Edmund’s an even more welcoming and inclusive environment. This includes evaluating and helping to develop current policy and practice within the school and promoting and enhancing awareness of equality and diversity amongst the staff and student body. I am also here to support pupils and staff with issues relating to equality, diversity and inclusion.

What are the key elements of inclusion?

Inclusion is about giving people an equal opportunity to succeed and to ensure any barriers to equality are overcome. It is about ensuring that staff and pupils feel safe and able to be themselves and have a voice. It is also about helping others to develop empathy, respect and acceptance for those that are not the same as them.

Recent studies highlight the desire for change among the profession, with many teachers having paused and really reflected on the diversity of their curriculum and importantly where it is falling short for their students over the past year. How are we at St Edmund’s addressing this?

We are already doing much to celebrate diversity at St. Edmund’s. We teach a PSHE curriculum that allows pupils to identify, discuss and reflect on issues such difference, discrimination and prejudice, and teaches them positive strategies to deal with them. Equality, diversity and inclusion (EDI) are also addressed through Form and teacher-led assemblies, talks by guest speakers, the focus of the

week and form-time discussions. Pupils are also exposed to a range of cultures through their academic curriculum. For example, in Religious Studies, they learn about a variety of religions and in English they read books that deal with issues such as racism. It is however vital that we continue to explore new opportunities to develop a diverse and inclusive curriculum and I know the teachers at St. Edmund’s are excellent at achieving this.

Do we have inclusion ambassadors throughout the school?

We currently do not have ambassadors in the School but this is something that I would definitely like to introduce in the future. I think that it is extremely important for pupils to be part of the process of making St. Edmund’s a more inclusive place and feel like they have responsibility in the development of the school. I am always astounded by the ingenuity and imagination of the pupils here and am learning from them all the time! I have also received some really supportive emails from parents and it’s great to know so many members of the St. Edmund’s community are keen to contribute to the development of the school.

First year goals in the post?

As it is a new role, this year is very much the start of the journey and I am looking forward to developing my own understanding of EDI. One of my main objectives will be to audit the School’s existing practices and use this information to create a new EDI policy and recommend and implement strategies for promoting inclusion. Alongside this, I will be seeking opportunities to celebrate diversity throughout the school. For example, in History we will be commemorating the 75th anniversary of Windrush Day, and the school will also participate in Neurodiversity Celebration Week. In the future, Mrs Le Guyader and I are hoping to set up a cultural exchange with another school.

I know that being the lead for Diversity and Inclusion will certainly present some exciting challenges in the year ahead and I’m really enjoying having the opportunity to contribute to the wider life of the school.

WELLBEING

We have recently signed up to the Wellbeing Hub. The Wellbeing Hub provides a proactive approach to mental health and wellbeing by offering support and guidance for parents, pupils and staff. More details to follow at the start of next term. Click the image above to watch a short video.

BEBRAS COMPUTING CHALLENGE

This year, students at St. Edmund’s took part in the Bebras Computing Challenge for the first time. Bebras introduces computational thinking to students. It is organised in over 50 countries and designed to get students all over the world excited about computing. This year, over 360,000 students participated in the UK. Each participant answers questions that focus on computational and logical thinking.

Across the school, 93 students from Forms 7-10 took part. 26 students earned a distinction and a further 36 earned a certificate of merit. The top 10% of students nationally are invited to take part in the Oxford University Computing Challenge and remarkably 12 students managed to meet this high threshold. They will take part in the OUCC in mid-January.

Individual highlights include Amelia T with 183 points, Matthew W with 178 points and Archie D with 184 points. These students will receive ‘best in school’ certificates for the Junior, Intermediate and Senior categories respectively.

Above all, it was impressive to see such a diverse range of students achieving such high scores and unpinning the principle that computing is accessible to all.

SPORT

It has been a dynamic and fun filled start to the sports programme at St. Edmund’s this academic year. It has been great to see so many pupils representing the school in competitive fixtures. We have had some great success and have had a positive uptake in the extra-curricular programme.

For the first year in St. Edmund’s history, both the boys and girls have competed in top level national competitions in football and hockey. Four football teams were entered into the English Schools Football Association Cup with all four progressing through to the second round. The Senior and Prep school boys first teams are still in the competition and have their next round of games coming up at the end of this term. The Prep school girl’s A-team were entered into IAPS hockey competition for the first time which was held at Hurst College.

22 THE ARROW

The girls performed admirably displaying skill and effort and finished third in the competition. On the 25th November we hosted our annual Inter-School’s cross-country event where we welcomed 26 schools and over 1200 pupils to compete throughout the day. The event was a huge success with St. Edmund’s performing well across the board. The following pupils had stand out performances:

Myla A – U8 Girls – 1st

Clara T – U8 Girls – 6th

Ed N – U8 Boys – 6th

Esme A – U12 Girls – 4th

Isabelle G – U12 Girls – 6th

Lorenzo G – U13 Boys – 4th

Sophia W – U14 Girls – 4th

Kyle G – U14 Boys – 6th

U8 Girls Team Event – 1st Place

U12 Girls Team Event – 2nd Place

U14 Boys Team Event – 3rd Place

U14 Girls Team Event – 2nd Place

As part of our charitable status, the sports department ran a community football tournament which welcomed eight primary schools for the first time since the covid pandemic. It was a well-supported event by parents and pupils with St. Bartholomew’s primary school and Grayswood primary school winning the girls and boys competition respectively.

The term saw the start of the St. Edmund’s sport scholarship programme, where all sports scholars from Form 7 to Form 11 are able to come together to develop their sporting and physical literacy. Senior scholars have been mentoring younger pupils in a buddy system, where they provide experience, feedback and guidance for the Prep school pupils. We hope the programme continues to develop and we see the effects of the training throughout their school experience.

In this year of firsts, we have introduced several new activities into the Senior school sports programme. The pupils have been lucky enough to have had the opportunity to partake in trampolining and fundamental movement skills, alongside water sports, gymnastics, volleyball and badminton as well as extra sessions of our core sports. Going forward we are introducing even more new and exciting opportunities for the pupils such as a triathlon club and sport strength and conditioning.

REMEMBRANCE SERVICE

Our first Remembrance service was held in the Farley Hall this year for pupils in Forms 5 to 11.

We remembered the 37 OSE’s (Old St. Edmund’s pupils) from the First World War, 42 from the Second World War and a soldier from the Iraq War; with a whole host of strong performances from the Chapel Choir, readings of poignant war poetry. The service ended with The Flowers of the Forest played on the

bagpipes by Hamish Robertson, who lives opposite the school and gave an impromptu performance at our outdoor event last year, having heard the singing and readings taking place on the Puntabout. We’re hoping he may now be an annual fixture for our school Remembrance!

HARVEST FESTIVAL

The October Harvest Festival is the first major Lower School highlight of the term. Led by Mr Church, the children in Reception, Forms 1 and 2 celebrated Harvest Festival by performing a wonderful collection of songs and poems in Chapel. The rendition of The Wheels on the Tractor by Reception was a notable highlight. It may have even brought a tear to Mr Walliker’s eye!

Following tradition, the children’s food donations were given to a local Food Bank in Headley Down for those in the community who need extra support at this time of year. Thank you to Reception, Forms 1 and 2 for your excellent performances and for your generosity and help in the community.

Form 1 had an action-packed day at Brooklands Motor Museum in November. The children took part in a “Journeys by Land” tour, sat in a Formula One car, made and raced their own peg racing cars, visited the Aircraft Factory and made their own model aeroplane with the Tinsmith.

HASLEMERE MUSEUM TRIP

A firm favourite in the school calendar is the annual Form 3 Ancient Egyptian workshop at Haslemere Museum. In the morning, the pupils took part in a gory mummification practical with the Museum’s life-sized doll. Next, they got the chance to see the real thing! The museum’s 3000-yearold mummy is a fabulous exhibit, which brought the pupils face to face with the mystic of this amazing time in history. After a quick lunch, Form 3 got the chance to handle real Egyptian artefacts, play Egyptian themed games, decipher hieroglyphics, and visit the museum’s shop. The final stage of the workshop was to mummify a toy with bandages, amulets, cartouches, and a death mask.

If you have not yet visited this lovely museum, it is highly rated by the pupils in Form 3!

AN INSPECTOR CALLS

The Form 10 students thoroughly enjoyed their visit to see the play ‘An Inspector Calls’ at the Yvonne Arnold theatre in Guildford. The visit coincided with their study of the play where they are preparing coursework for IGCSE English Literature. Seeing a live version of a play is important when studying texts and plays, especially when it comes to witnessing ‘Inspector Goole’ in action! A productive afternoon was had by all and the visit will hopefully enrich their coursework, worth 20% of their IGCSE English Literature qualification.

FORM 11 CLASSICS TRIP

WEST WITTERING TRIP

Form 8 enjoyed a blustery day at West Wittering in September, collecting data and using a range of techniques in preparation for their forthcoming projects.

FAMOUS FIVE, CHICHESTER THEATRE

Forms 5 to 8 had a wonderful afternoon watching Famous Five the Musical at Chichester Festival Theatre. The set, puppets and singing were superb and has certainly inspired the children to pick up Enid Blyton’s popular books.

DEVILS PUNCHBOWL WALK

This term Forms 1 and 2 visited the Devils Punchbowl for a nature walk, led by Dr Inward, from our Science department. She was able to help the children hunt and identify a variety of bugs and beetles as well as plants and trees.

THE ARROW 27
All 40 of Mrs Drummond’s Form 11 Classics GCSE students spent a day in the British Museum on Friday 4 November, immersing themselves in some of the key prescribed sources from the GCSE curriculum, including the Parthenon Sculptures. Using a workbook, pupils moved around different rooms in the Museum, tracking down key prescribed sources. A wonderful day was had by all!

ROYAL SCHOOL OF ARTILLERY, LARKHILL

In support of their work on the science of warfare, the Form 9’s were treated to visiting the Royal School of Artillery. They saw a Watchkeeper (remotely piloted surveillance aircraft) and experienced a cutting-edge simulator for training pilots. They took part in a STEM workshop where they took part in a practical investigation into the effects of altering propellant and elevation when firing projectiles and were tasked with getting a projectile to hit the Deputy Headmaster (which they achieved!).

After lunch they visited a gun position on Salisbury Plain, where they had an ‘in the field’ lecture on how field gunnery works and watched (heard!) a battery of 105mm Light Guns firing. It was impressively loud, even from 200m away!

MARWELL ZOO

As part of their science studies this term, Forms 3 and 4 visited Marwell Zoo. Each year group attended one of the educational hubs where specialized Marwell staff gave a talk on Habitats and animal adaptation.

The visit to the tropical house was particularly popular as the two-toed sloth was in full view. The children enjoyed a day of visiting monkeys, giraffes, rhinos, meerkats and many more interesting animals. They came away with a sense of having had a glimpse of an exciting living world.

28 THE ARROW

SOMME BATTLEFIELDS

In early September, the Form 11 historians had an early 4.30am(!) start to visit the Somme battlefields.

Most of the focus was on the events of the 1 July 1916. A wreath was placed at the grave site of Bobby Soames, OSE in Carnoy Cemetery and following this they proceeded to visit the Devonshire Regiment Cemetery, where 160 of the 163 graves are all dated 1 July 1916. Outside the graveyard is the poignant message : “The Devonshiers held this trench, the Devonshires hold it still”. We then journeyed onto Lochnagar crater where the pupils were able to stand at the top of the rim of the world`s biggest mine (at the time of its explosion).

At 7.28am, following seven days of bombardment by the British artillery, the Lochnagar mine was detonated underneath the German lines. and the story of the heroic endeavours of Lt Richard Jennings, OSE, who lost his life nearby was retold. We then travelled the short distance into Albert to visit the battle of the Somme museum. After lunch, the children laid another wreath to all those missing on the Somme at the Thiepval Memorial to the Missing. Another short ride by coach took us to the Newfoundland Memorial, where they were able to walk along the trenches, still preserved on the site.

The final stop was the Sunken Lane, where men of the Lancashire fusiliers were stationed just before 7.30am on the 1 July 1916. The children took up the same positions as the soldiers did on that fateful morning. Our final destination was tea at Auchonvillers before embarking on our return journey.

SCHOOL ASSEMBLIES

FORM 1 ASSEMBLY

After a particularly wet November, people would be forgiven for forgetting that there are actually four seasons. Luckily, Form 1A were on hand to educate us about the seasons with some lovely seasonal poetry. The assembly was rounded off with one of Aesop’s fables, where the North Wind and Sun competed to see who could force a man to remove his coat. The North Wind’s bluster failed but the sun’s warming rays succeeded. The moral of the story being that a little gentleness can succeed, where force can fail. A message that all the audience took to heart!

Many children their age would find it a daunting prospect to perform in front of such a large audience. However, all the adults watching were impressed with their confidence and delivery. A huge well done to all the pupils in Form 1A!

FORM 2 THE GREAT FIRE OF LONDON

Form 2 chose to perform a full period drama for their assembly, chronicling the Great Fire of London. After learning how the fire broke out in the bakery of Thomas Farriner, the audience met with Samuel Pepys and viewed his attempts to alert King Charles II.

The children performed their roles with clarity and enthusiasm. However, a special mention must go to Rosie O’Hare, who performed her ‘maid’ role with much flair. It was a shame that her character unfortunately perished in the conflagration! Well done to Form 2!

FORM 3C THE CHILDREN WHO CRIED MONSTER

‘The Boy Who Cried Wolf’ is a classic story, which was given a humorous update by the pupils in 3C. Three naughty children intent on mischief decided to make prank calls to the army about UFO sightings. Unfortunately, they only realised the error of their ways when it was too late. When the real monsters came, nobody believed them! The moral of the story was profound – If you tell lies, the monsters will come and get you!!!

FORM 6 CELEBRATING OUR TEACHERS

Fantastic assembly by our form 6’s thanking their teachers with beautifully personalised ‘thank you cards’.

FORM 9N ASSEMBLY

Form 9N performed their own version of the Great British Bake Off in their class assembly. The lucky audience were able to discover the history behind some of England’s classic bakes while sampling a slice or two!

FORM 10D ASSEMBLY

10D’s assembly was based on ‘Roman Saturnalia’, this was the equivalent of Christmas today and culminated in a family feast where masters and slaves swapped roles.

DUKE OF EDINBURGH

32 THE ARROW

The Form 11 Silver group went out on a three day / two night expedition, exploring the Surrey Hills. The 14-member group set off from Denbies National Trust near Dorking and headed south. Having completed their Bronze expedition a year ago, the group demonstrated great competence in navigation and map-reading skills. After six hours of hiking, the group arrived at Bentley Copse Campsite where they spent their first night. Spirits were high as they set up camp and cooked their evening meal and the next morning the group were able to make an early start and head east. The second night was spent at Etherley farm where the group enjoyed

marvellous facilities, including hot showers! The final day saw the group complete their adventure, returning to Denbies where they were greeted by their parents.

The Form 10 Bronze group had an intense expedition training day at the school on Friday 7 October. After completing first aid training, they set off towards Waggoners Wells for their training walk. They returned four hours later to complete camp-craft training, which included putting up tents and learning to use Trangia stoves. The following morning the group of 46 students convened in Milford, before setting off to explore Thursley Nature Reserve. Garner’s Field Campsite provided spacious grounds for the participants’ overnight stay, which also included an evening group yoga session. The next morning the team braved colder than expected conditions and headed back to Milford for pick-up.

Well done to all the participants who all passed their assessed expedition – a fantastic achievement!

FOOD & NUTRITION

St. Edmund’s is committed to providing excellent nutrition for all our pupils. We know that a healthy, balanced and nutritionally robust diet supports outstanding teaching and learning. Our catering company, Thomas Franks, are leaders in the independent sector and Stephen Mann, the catering manager expertly runs the kitchen with his team. He took a few minutes out of his very busy day in our kitchens to tell us a bit more about Food at Nutrition at St. Edmund’s.

Thomas Franks are renowned for a seasonal approach to food. Please can you tell us more about this?

Working in partnership, Thomas Franks and St. Edmund’s are fully committed to a varied

programme of healthy eating, one where meals are prepared on the premises using fresh and seasonal ingredients. We use as many local suppliers as possible to produce our menus and which also helps towards reducing our carbon footprint.

As a caterer you pride yourselves for following culinary trends. How can this be seen at St. Edmund’s?

Before the pandemic street food was very popular amongst pupils whereas now there’s more of a trend towards home cooked British foods. Italian cooking is also having a bit of a renaissance! We try to ensure our food offers a variety of global choices as much as possible and most days our salads are a fusion of different cuisines which are increasingly popular.

38 THE ARROW

As a school we love to celebrate and mark important calendar events like Chinese New Year, Burns Night, St Patrick’s Day and Halloween through what we eat. Can you tell us more about how we mark these events from a catering perspective?

We love marking special occasions such as these with our pupils with fun and tasty food as well as decorating the dining rooms. We have a pupil food committee who I meet with termly to look at menu creation and discuss menu ideas. We are always happy to be flexible to pupil demands.

We often label our recipes with silly names when catering for events to try to inject a sense of humour and fun into mealtimes. For Halloween this term we carved watermelons into ghoulish faces, made toffee apples and frog slime jelly.

The catering team are incredibly excited about the new dining hall expected for completion in February 2023. It’s going to bring far greater flexibility and we’re planning to trial more of a self-catering approach, allowing more independence but with supervision.

We strongly believe that ‘we are what we eat’ and have chosen Thomas Franks as our caterers to meet the nutritional needs of our pupils. Can you tell us more about how you do this?

Nourishing pupils is paramount in everything we do, providing pupils with nutritious food every day. We follow strict guidelines

and use the ‘Healthwise Plate’ to develop our menus to ensure we confirm to nutritional guidelines. We reduce sugars in our desserts and avoid using any refined sugars. We are also always looking at ways of hiding vegetables in our dishes, so pupils often do not realise they’re eating them!

We offer pupils a good choice with two main meals on offer every day, as well as jacket potatoes and pasta on alternate days. This is all supplemented by a fantastic choice of salads in our salad bar, home-made soup with different tasty flavours each day of the week and freshly baked bread with vegetarian and vegan options.

How do you cater for children with different dietary requirements?

Our kitchen is completely nut free and we cater for all allergies and special diets. The catering team are always trying to challenge the pupils’ tastes and encourage them to try new and exciting foods and with parents and staff, play an active role in shaping the menus. We get to know our pupils as well as possible and offer encouragement when pupils try new foods!

We start food education with our pupils right from the start here in our Nursery. How to Thomas Franks approach this?

We love our pupils to get involved with making lunch fun. In the holidays we make pizzas with our Nursery pupils.

COMMUNITY CHRISTMAS MARKET

The Community Christmas Market, in conjunction with Grayshott at Christmas, took place on Saturday 26th November. It was an amazing event, only made possible by the volunteers than planned, coordinated and supported the FOSE stalls at the event itself. With over 60 stalls, this was a fabulous first event for the local and St. Edmund’s community and it was wonderful to be able to welcome so many people to St. Edmund’s. A massive £500 was raised to support Matt Pollard’s fundraising to buy presents for children staying in the Royal Marsden Hospital at Christmas. FOSE will also continue to support the Royal Marsden Hospital through the Christmas Jumper day.

FUNDRAISING

The events and initiatives that have happened since COVID have mainly been to re-unite the St. Edmund’s community after a tough two years rather than fundraise as we felt it was more important to keep costs as low as possible to give everyone a chance to take part.

However, we still managed to raise over £1500 last year for two children’s hospices and FOSE were also able to donate presents and party items to a children’s hospice in Guildford. This year we have sold gin, jute bags, cooler bags, scented candles and chilli sauces, as well as organised cake sales, wreath making events, Easter eggs for the pupils, Bonfire Night, and Christmas artwork.

For 2023, we would love to get more people involved in FOSE, not just through volunteering but also by helping to organise events and by contributing ideas. Without these people, the events just wouldn’t be able to happen. When a family joins St Edmund’s, they automatically become part of FOSE, which means families can get involved in any way they want; as class reps, event planners, or with the social media – the list goes on!

Over Christmas we will be sending out a survey to all parents and staff and we would really appreciate your time to complete this as it will help FOSE plan for the future and influence what events are put on for our community going forward.

STAR PUPILS

CHARLES N

Charles has completed his first show season as a young handler, usually having to be age 12 Charles was granted special exception because of his skills as a confident handler. This allowed him to take part in the heavy horse classes this season at the age of 8. Charles has won every class he entered this year, winning at county level at Wessex heavy horse show and Southern counties. This is largely due to the bond he has gained through working with his horses since he has been a toddler and growing great trust between them.

CASPER K DIGITAL AMBASSADOR

Form 11 pupil Casper was the first student to receive the coveted St. Edmund’s Digital Ambassador Award and have his named etched into the shield.
