While exploring the archives, we have uncovered these fascinating photographs, but we are not entirely sure what we are looking at!

At first glance, they appear to show a school event, but we suspect the people pictured may not actually be students. Could they be parents taking part in a special activity or event? We'd love to know more.

Do you recognise anyone in the photographs? Were you there? Can you tell us when the event took place or what it was for?

Congratulations to Dr Victoria Horler, OH (2011-2018)

Good luck with your future medical career, Victoria. Wishing you all the very best from Hymers College.

We were delighted to hear from Grace Sargent (OH 2018–2022), who has just completed her Postgraduate Diploma in Law at London City Law School. She now moves on to the Bar Course before beginning her Criminal Pupillage with 5 King’s Bench Walk next academic year.

A fantastic achievement and an exciting path ahead. All the very best with your future legal career, Grace.

Keep in touch!

We believe these photographs were taken in the mid-1990s and show a group of talented young musicians proudly stood by the School lake.

Do these faces look familiar? We would love your help identifying the students pictured and hearing any memories you may have from music lessons, concerts or school performances from that era.

If you can put a name to any of the musicians in these photos, please leave a comment below or send us a message.

We were delighted to hear that Harry Bursell (OH 2018-2022) has graduated with First Class Honours in Business and Marketing from Northumbria University. An outstanding achievement and a milestone to be incredibly proud of. All the very best with your future ahead.

Keep in touch, Harry!

Sometimes the people who make the biggest difference are the ones nobody ever sees. Our incredible grounds/ maintenance and housekeeping staff are the unsung heroes who keep everything running smoothly behind the scenes this Summer. The grounds are immaculate, the classrooms are maintained, maintenance issues are sorted before most of us even know they exist. Buildings are opened, secured, cleaned, repaired and cared for day after day.

While many of us are at home with our families in term time and school holidays, they are often working weekends, evenings and nights, making sure everything is ready for the next day. What stands out most is not just their hard work but how much they genuinely care. They take pride in what they do, and it shows in every corner of our School.
Quite simply, we wouldn't be half as fabulous without those that you may not see.
