We are going straight into the 3rd round of collecting ideas from students in this week's Character Education session. This time everything is linked to the school's British Values. To conclude the last round of council meetings see the results from the Chairs' meeting:

The Year 8 boys football match after school today (12.3.2026) has been postponed due to waterlogged pitches. Apologies for any inconvenience this may cause.

Well done to Year 9 student Thea who competed at Crufts recently, with her dog Meep. The pair came fourth in their class of 13 competitors.

Well done to Y7 student Milly who was a mascot for Cheltenham Town Women’s Football Club on Sunday, walking out with the club’s goalkeeper Poppy Irvine. Milly is the goalkeeper for Lydney Town Youth U12 Lionesses and is doing really well, the team winning 9 of their last 11 games

Today, our chairs of the student council are meeting to talk about the suggestions collected linked to the canteen. We are excited to hear all creative ideas from the students.
