Celebrating our Year 13 class of 2025! We are so proud of our Year 13 cohort on their fantastic A-Level results. This year, 77% of grades achieved were A*-C, with over 40% of students heading off to Russell Group universities! 4 students also secured prestigious Oxbridge places. Early indications show over 70% of students achieved their first-choice university offer – a true testament to their hard work and dedication. We are so proud of you all, and wish you good luck in your next steps and future pathways. We look forward to hearing about your achievements in the years to come.

This September, two brave members of our Primary team – Mrs Cairns and Mr O'Boyle – are taking on the incredible challenge of abseiling down the Northampton Lift Tower, all in support of The McCarthy-Dixon Foundation. The McCarthy-Dixon Foundation works tirelessly to support disadvantaged individuals and families across Northamptonshire – from providing food parcels and essential household items to running wellbeing projects and offering a helping hand when it's needed most. Every donation makes a difference – and every penny raised will go directly towards helping people who need it most. If you'd like to show your support and help Mrs Cairns and Mr O'Boyle reach their fundraising goal, both of their Just Giving pages are available via the link in our bio. The big day is in September – so stay tuned for updates, photos, and a final fundraising total! Thank you for supporting this amazing cause!

Last Wednesday and Thursday, over 160 of our new Year 7 students joined us for two vibrant days of summer learning. From forensic investigations to maths-based challenges, the atmosphere was full of curiosity, teamwork, and the occasional magnifying glass! One day, focused on forensic science, with students stepping into the role of investigators - complete with lab coats and goggles. Through hands-on activities, they practiced observation, analysis, and problem solving while tackling mock crime scenes. It was a chance to think creatively, ask great questions, and apply knowledge in new ways. The other day, turned up the energy with maths challenges, orienteering, sports, and design tasks. Students teamed up with peers from other primary schools and tackled each challenge with enthusiasm. Whether solving puzzles, navigating a brand-new school, or building something spectacular, everyone gave it their all. Across both days, students demonstrated perseverance, imagination, and fantastic collaboration. We're proud of the effort and positivity they brought to this fantastic experience. We hope everyone had a brilliant time and we're excited to welcome you back in September - with many more adventures to come!
