W I LLI A M I extend my best wishes to our year 11 and 13 students who have commenced their study leave. Specifically, I would like to mention House Captains Shaun Saju and Faaris Alam. I am confident that you will bring honour to our house through successful results in your forthcoming examinations. House William currently stand in 3rd place in the 2026 House Cup. Our students have shown excellence in their behaviour and performances in various events. We have numerous instances of excellence that warrant acknowledgment for their hard work. I trust that they can offer encouragement and drive for the rest of us. Event Winners: 11W: Catchphrase 8W: Handball 9W & 10W: House Spelling 7W: Basketball Mr Hussein, Head of House G A L AHA D This is my first year as head of Galahad and it is one that we can be very proud of as a house. The Galahads from every year group have made a concerted effort with strong showings in academics, behaviour, sport, and competitions have put us in a fantastic place. Our year 7 students have worked together well as a form and have achieved a strong 2nd place for the House football competition, 3rd in the basketball, and took the trophy in the culture cup. 7 Galahad are also second in merits, Well done! With the Sports Enrichment Days, we have had a 4th place finish for the House Football for 8G, as well as a 3rd place finish in the house football. 9G have showcased an incredible academic performance, placing second in the house spelling and topping the house table for merits in the year group! Year 10 are also at first place for merits, an achievement which defines us as contenders for the cup! Year 10 have also placed 2nd in the spelling! Our year 11s have also made a great effort to put us in a strong position before they depart, with 1st place in the spelling competition! We wish 11G the best of luck with their exams and the future. Our 6th form teams have also delivered, who have contributed 3000 house points, as well as winning competitions such as spelling! The glory of house points is often focused on competitions and sports, but the bread and butter of victory in the house cup always resides in house points in class. Everyone is doing a fantastic job, but exceptionally well done to Dhevan, Rayan, and Hanlin in 7G, Rayhan and Oscar in 8G, Leith in 9G, and Hanif and Sami in 10G for all now exceeding 300 merits on the year, an outstanding achievement. There are a further 17 pupils across those forms currently closing in on this mark as well! I am really pleased with all our success so far this year, let’s keep it up in this final stretch of the school year. Mr Cambell Henry House has enjoyed an exceptional year, clearly demonstrating what it means to live by our core values of resilience, responsibility, bravery, and commitment. These values are not just words; they are evident every day in the way our students approach their learning, support one another, and represent the house across the school. Resilience has been shown through students’ determination to keep trying, even when faced with challenges, whether academic or personal. Henry House students have consistently shown that setbacks are opportunities to learn and grow. Responsibility has been reflected in excellent behaviour, punctuality, and pride in both individual actions and collective success, with students taking ownership of their choices and contributing positively to the school community. Our students have also displayed great bravery, stepping outside their comfort zones by taking part in competitions, leadership roles, and new opportunities. This confidence to try, to speak up, and to support others has been a real strength of the house. Finally, commitment has underpinned everything Henry House has achieved. This includes commitment to learning, to improvement, and to supporting peers and staff throughout the year. Together, these values have created a strong, supportive, and ambitious house culture. As a result of this shared attitude and effort, Henry House has achieved an outstanding total of 15,773 Arbor House Points. Special congratulations go to our top house point earners in each year group: • Year 7: Omer Ali • Year 8: Anania Fikru • Year 9: Mavrick Sahota • Year 10: Mujtaba Khan • Year 11: Amaan Nazir These students have embodied the values of Henry House through their commitment, responsibility, and positive contributions, and their efforts have played a key role in this success. Well done to everyone in Henry House. Keep up the good work – we are incredibly proud of what you have achieved and look forward to even more success ahead.
