What does it take to write an award-nominated novel?

Our Prep and Senior students had the privilege of meeting J.P. Rose (Jacqui Rose), Sunday Times bestselling adult author and award-winning children’s author. Jacqui is also the author of 'Birdie' which has been shortlisted for the Carnegie Medal for Writing 2026.

The audience was captivated with the story behind her thought-provoking novel and she shared her own experiences reflecting on the themes of friendship, identity, courage, and belonging. The students asked insightful questions, learned about the writing journey, and discovered how storytelling can inspire empathy, resilience, and self-expression.

A truly thought-provoking and inspiring visit that left our students motivated to read, write, and share their own stories. Thank you, J.P. Rose, for spending the morning with us!

A once in a lifetime trip to Tanzania

During the summer holidays, a group of our Upper 6 (Year 13) travelled to Tanzania with True Adventure, supporting the charity, Better Lives. They spent six days at Maendeleo Primary School, planting banana trees and vegetable patches, painting classrooms, laying foundations, digging a trench for a water channel, and managed to squeeze in a football match, losing to Maendeleo’s very competitive team.

They spent time in a Maasai village learning about their traditions and taking part in a bush walk; went on safari in Tarangire National Park and witnessed lions, zebras, elephants, and vultures in their natural habitat; and rounded off the trip with a relaxing stay at a beach resort, swimming and exploring the local shops.

The students’ time in Tanzania allowed them to reflect on just how important charity work is on all levels. They recently heard back from Better Lives with an update on the progress at Maendeleo School. By preparing the garden beds for planting and extending the irrigation system, the school are able to grow more produce, which in turn benefits the whole school community. With the addition of a new photocopier, teachers have been able to set tests and they informed us that results are steadily improving. The girls are incredibly grateful that they were able to be a part of this programme and look forward to hearing from Maendeleo School again soon.

What kind of person do I want to be?

Our Upper 4 (Year 9) students spent the day exploring this important question in a thought-provoking workshop led by humanutopia, an organisation dedicated to empowering young people to make positive choices and create meaningful change.

Through open discussion, reflection, and interactive activities, students considered their values, aspirations, and the impact their words and actions can have on others. The sessions encouraged greater self-awareness, while helping students build confidence, resilience, and the skills needed to navigate an increasingly complex world.

Year 9 student Izzy reflected:

"The day made me think more about myself and how my behaviour, communication, and body language could be interpreted by my friends, family, and new people."

The workshop provided a valuable opportunity for personal growth, equipping students with the life skills that support wellbeing, positive relationships, and success both in school and beyond.
