A big congratulations to Valerio!!

What do Kings Monkton students get up to over the summer?

This morning, Valerio collected his AS results and at just 15, he’s picked up a straight flush. He got A grades across Mathematics, Further Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry, plus an A* in his Extended Project.

Valerio spent this summer on tour in Spain with the National Youth Guitar Ensemble, performing in Granada and Málaga, whilst also preparing for his next piano exam. That follows a year in which he aged out of the National Children’s Orchestra, playing his final concert as a cellist with the main orchestra last November.

He also launched Musical Peers, his own project taking live music into schools across Cardiff to encourage younger children to pick up an instrument. The first concert was at Grangetown Primary School.

Alongside all of this, Valerio serves as a Rights Respecting Ambassador for Kings Monkton School. He has represented Kings Monkton at Model United Nations, and in various events and competitions.

He wants to be a nuclear engineer. With a full year of A2 study and a set of big decisions ahead of him, we think he’s rather well placed.

Congratulations, Valerio! ⭐

Last weekend we witnessed a wonderful group of students performed at our autumn showcases. We hope the younger performers were inspired by the older ones performing and gave the parents a vision of what their child can achieve with hard work, patience and determination. 🌟
Our last day of term is Saturday 13th December. We are slowing down on accepting new students in the spring term while we are short on staff due to maternity leave.
