🎓 Where has the time gone?! 🎓
Tomorrow marks a massive milestone as the majority of our incredible Year 11 Herewoode Academy students officially finish their GCSE journey! We still have 44 dedicated students sitting their final exam on Tuesday, so the hard work isn't quite over for everyone just yet—keep pushing, team, you're almost at the finish line! 🏁
To every single one of our Year 11s: we are so incredibly proud of the resilience, hard work, and brilliant character you’ve shown throughout your time with us. It feels like just yesterday you were walking through the doors as nervous Year 7s!
Wishing the absolute best of luck to each and every one of you in whatever your next chapter holds. You will always be a part of the Herewoode family.
