It has been lovely to have been blessed with some Spring sunshine and some warmer weather this week. It does therefore seem an appropriate time to remind you that pupils must continue to wear full school uniform in and around the school building.

Should classrooms be particularly warm, any pupil can, of course, request to remove their jumper during that lesson.

What a weekend! Our year 8/9 Royal Sapphire cheerleading team had their first ever cheerleading competition at the Future Cheer Spotlight Showdown Competition!
After months of hard work and dedication they won their division and scored an excellent result of 37/42! They also hit ‘zero’ in cheerleading terms is absolutely amazing, and very hard to achieve.
