The success they have achieved is a very just reward for their hard work, abilities and great team spirit. We could not be prouder of them. I would also like to thank them for playing such a leading role in organising numerous joyful events over the last two years and bring incredible role models for the rest of the school.”
Alan Roe continued, “Likewise, our passionate and hugely experienced staff team has worked wonders, not only to look after, support and enrich our girls but also to educate them to such an exceptional standard. I would like to thank all girls, staff, parents and governors for this formidable team effort and wish Year 13 the very best for their exciting next chapters.”
