Sixth Form Enrichment Day
February 10th saw the school have its fourth Enrichment Day of the year. Students came off timetable and either took part in house activities, or were able to hear presentations from guest speakers on a range of topics.
All of the guest speakers commented on how positive HGS students had been, and what a warm reception they had received from our students.
