THE QATAR SHIRBURNIAN
SHERBORNE SENIOR SCHOOL
Commemoration Thursday 16th June provided us with the opportunity to run an in-person Commem celebration for the first time in 2 years. Whilst COVID-19 restrictions meant we could not have the whole school present, we did none the less manage to host an event with various Award winners, performers, and special guests, with Year 10 pupils providing the audience. Each year is special in the life of a school and Commem is our opportunity as a community to celebrate our pupils’ many achievements. At Sherborne Senior School we want to celebrate success at every opportunity, and we believe every pupil has the potential to excel, and to be rightly proud of their achievements. Our special guests at Commem., included Ms Alexandra Cole, the Deputy Ambassador from the British Embassy, and Ms Fatma Al Jaidah, the Project Director at the Supreme Committee for Delivery & Legacy. In collaboration with project teams and relevant stakeholders, Ms Al Jaidah is responsible for managing the visitor experience during the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022. Ms Alexandra Cole helped to present some of the awards and Ms Al Jaidah, as well as presenting some awards, was our guest speaker. During the ceremony we were treated to some fantastic music performances from our pupils. Our pupils were praised for how they have continued to cope during these difficult times, and we wished every success and happiness to the pupils that are completing their studies at Sherborne Senior School to embark on the next exciting chapter in their lives at universities around the world.
