Mobile Phones Lost and Found
A mobile phone has been found on the bench outside reception. Please ask at reception if you think it may belong to you. We think someone may have mistakenly picked up a Rose Gold colour iPhone 6 which looked very similar to their own phone. If so, we would be most grateful if you could please return it to Mrs Tarr at reception. Thank you.

Monday 9 March - Year 7 Rushall Farm
A reminder that the Year 7 Geography Field Trip to Rushall Farm and the River Pang will be taking place a week Monday. Please find a copy of the letter here. Pupils do not need to wear uniform, but should have warm waterproof clothing and wellington boots. They should also bring a nut-free packed lunch, as well as pens/pencils and a clipboard.

Monday 23 March - Joint Music Concert
On Monday 23 March at 6.30pm there will be a Joint Senior Concert at Senior Boys. As usual there will be a range of music from a variety of genres, involving pupils from across the senior division. Parents of those boys involved have been notified by a separate email, but all others are obviously most welcome too!
