The Alton Towers Trip busses are on the road on the way back to STA. We’ve had a jolly good time. 🎢

If traffic is kind then we should be back around 8.30pm. Earlier than expected. We’ll ask students to update parents when we’re about half an hour out. 🚎

Update from London trips. Due to delays all trips are currently expected back at around 6:30. Messages via arbor are also going out. We will update again if there are any changes.

All students have had a great day.

👀 Sneak Peek Alert!

The activities are being set up, the excitement is building, and tomorrow it's finally time for Carnival Day! 🎪🎉

Who's ready for a day of fun and celebration? 🎈✨
