Pupils were delighted by bubbles at this morning’s Whole School Cathedral Service, as they considered what blessings mean; they reflected on how God’s blessings, much like bubbles, are abundant and bring delight.
We were also thrilled to present three prestigious Velvet Caps during the service. The Velvet Cap is the highest honour in co-curricular activities, awarded to pupils who have represented their country at the highest level. Huge congratulations to Tixie P (U5) for her selection to the France National Junior Netball Squad, Charlie B (L5) who is a member of the English Schools Orchestra, and Alex S (U5) for his place in the National Youth Concert Band. Their incredible achievements inspire us all, and we are so proud of their dedication and talent.
