Forge Valley School & Sixth Form

🎓 Congratulations, Class of 2026! 🎓

Following a week of GCSE and A Level results, we want to celebrate every pupil who has reached this important milestone. This moment is about recognising the effort, resilience and achievements of each individual.

Success looks different for everyone, and every journey is unique. Whether you've achieved the grades you hoped for, overcome personal challenges, discovered new strengths, or found clarity in your next steps, your achievements matter.

✨ Be proud of what you've achieved. Be proud of your journey. And most of all, be proud of how far you've come.

Thank you for demonstrating the values of ambition, endeavour and success throughout your time at Forge Valley. The determination and character you have shown will stay with you long after Results Day. We can't wait to see what comes next. 🌟

🇪🇸 Our final day in Cantabria was another fantastic (and very long!) one! 🇪🇸

The morning was spent exploring the local zoo, where we saw an incredible range of animals. Some of the pupils’ favourites included the majestic white tigers, playful orangutans, elegant flamingos and, surprisingly, the guinea pigs! 🐅🦧🦩🐹

We enjoyed a well-earned pit stop at the zoo café, where Miss B and Mr C hosted their end-of-trip quiz – a big hit with everyone! 📝🎉

After walking back into town para comer (for lunch), pupils had one final chance to pick up some souvenirs before the journey home. Judging by the amount of regalitos purchased, a few suitcases may have doubled in weight! 🎁🛍️😄

Once again, the children were absolutely brilliant on the long return journey. After arriving back at FV at 3am, we were all more than ready for our own camas (beds)! 🚌💤

A huge well done to all of the pupils for being such wonderful ambassadors throughout the trip – what a fantastic Cantabria adventure! 🇪🇸✨

🇪🇸 Spain Trip Return Information 🇪🇸

We are due to land at 10:30pm this evening on flight FR2613.

Once we have collected luggage and set off on the coach from the airport, we will ask students to message their parents with an updated and accurate arrival time back at Forge Valley. Please be aware that our return may be before 3:30am, so keep an eye out for this message.

📱 Once you receive the update, we would be grateful if you could share it with any fellow parents who may not have seen it.

Important information:
✅ Passports and GHIC cards will be in students' rucksacks.
✅ Medicines will be either in suitcases or rucksacks.
✅ As we arrive back, we will open the car park gate, so please keep the entrance clear to allow access.
✅ Once the gate is open, cars can follow the coach into the car park to collect students and their luggage.

Thank you for your support, and we look forward to arriving home safely!
