Year 7 Sponsored Walk – A Celebration of House Spirit

Our Year 7 students recently took part in a sponsored walk to raise money for Cancer Research UK and Save the Children UK – and what an incredible day it was!

The walk was a huge success, with all five houses proudly showcasing their colours and school spirit. From handmade signs and banners to hats, face paint, and chants, the boys went above and beyond to represent their houses with pride. Their enthusiasm didn’t just impress staff – members of the community praised their respect and positivity, with two passers-by even donating on the spot.

Throughout the walk, the boys embodied our values of Respect, Aspiration, Endeavour, Service, and of course Community by greeting local residents with smiles and well wishes as they marched through the park.

While every house made a fantastic effort, there could only be one winner.

After much consideration, the award for Best Display of House Pride goes to…

Alfred House! 

Their rehearsed songs, colour-coordinated face paint, and infectious passion truly stood out on the day.

A huge well done to Alfred, and a big congratulations to every single Year 7 student who took part. You should all feel incredibly proud of what you achieved – both in your fundraising and in the way you represented our school.
