At the end of last term some of our A Level physicists travelled to Geneva to visit CERN, the European Organisation for Nuclear Research. This was a fascinating opportunity for the pupils to see the three main parts of CERN: the original particle accelerator, the ATLAS detector and the computers. Thank you to Mr Behan and Ms Bruce for their organisation and support!

Radnor House pupils and staff had an incredible time giving back to the community by volunteering at various local venues for 'Make a Difference Day'. Activities included gardening, hosting a community tea party, assisting at local primary schools, and even learning vital first-aid skills.

A huge THANK YOU to all 14 venues that welcomed us with open arms and made this day possible!

Friday's Celebration Assemblies were a fantastic way to round off another successful school year. We are very proud of all our pupils and the wonderful way that they have demonstrated our school values throughout the year. We hope that you all have a fantastic summer break!

🎶✨ This week, we hosted our annual Summer Concert, and it was nothing short of spectacular! From captivating drama pieces to stunning solos, electrifying rock bands, harmonious choirs, and a rousing rendition of 'Sweet Caroline', performed by the staff band.

A huge thank you to all the staff who organised this incredible event and to everyone who participated. Your hard work and dedication made the night truly magical. 🎤🎸🎭🎼

Congratulations to Eva in Year 7 who, along with her troupe, won Bronze in the Commercial Category at the Dance World Cup in Prague!
🎶💃🕺
Eva and her troupe showcased their amazing skill, hard work, and passion, we are very proud of this phenomenal achievement!

Sports Day 2024 was a brilliant opportunity for pupils across the school to engage in some friendly competition. All of the Houses showed tremendous perseverance and respect, but it was Voltaire who emerged as this year's Sports Day champion.🏆🏅

Congratulations to all pupils who took part in the events and to those who were on the side lines cheering their teammates on.
💛❤️💙💚

A special thank you goes to the Sports Department and the staff who organised and supported such a fantastic day.

Last week Year 7 went to Thorpe Lakes for a day full of sunshine, inflatables and water sports!

Pupils played on the inflatable course, braved the rides, and tried kneeboarding!
We were very impressed by the courage and respect shown by our pupils. ☀️

Last week Year 10 French pupils spent the morning at Radnor House Prep. The four Language Leader pupils prepared and delivered a French and a Spanish lesson to Year 5 while our other pupils organised fun French activities for Years 1, 2 and 3. 🇫🇷

Our pupils showed excellent leadership skills, engaging the children on topics such as colours, pets, numbers and food. The morning ended with a lovely story and they even sang a song - all in French!

The final of the annual Find Your Voice competition took place this Monday, with the prompt 'Isn't it funny that...'

Pupils from Years 7 to 10 delivered well thought-out and impactful speeches on a diverse range of topics, from yellow cars to equality in sport! Congratulations go to everyone who reached this stage of the competition, but especially to Dulcie, who was awarded first place for her powerful speech.

Yesterday the Lower Sixth displayed their competitive spirit in the inaugural 'Pong and Spoon' race on the Astro. Congratulations to Miss Romagosa and Mrs Kundi's form who claimed first place and a golden deer statue!

Don't miss next week's talk from Maureen Onwunali! She will be helping our pupils to reflect on the past year, focussing on topics such as personal development, courage and identity. This is sure to be a great opportunity for all pupils as we near the end of the Summer Term. ☀️

We would like to wish Eid Mubarak to all those who celebrated in the Radnor House community! ✨

🎨✨ Last night’s Art and Photography Exhibition was a breathtaking showcase of our GCSE and A Level pupils' talent and dedication! Their perseverance over the past two years was clear in every stunning piece on display. 🖼️📸

A huge shoutout to our truly inspirational Art Department staff for their unwavering support and guidance which was instrumental in nurturing our students' creativity and skills.

Thank you to everyone who attended and celebrated with us.

Four of our Year 8 pupils participated in the Modern Foreign Language Poetry Live Competition at St Mary's University.

Ursula and Amity each memorised and recited a poem in French, and Zoran and Jahan a poem in Spanish. The evening was a lovely celebration of language learning!

Our pupils recited their poems beautifully and with confidence, we are very proud of their achievements. 🇫🇷 🇪🇸

Lower Sixth celebrated the end of their assessment week by completing the treetop challenge at Go Ape in Battersea Park.

The support and encouragement they showed each other at such high altitudes were as impressive as the speeds they reached coming down the zip wires!

Calling all Radnor parents and pupils!

You're invited to our GCSE and A Level Art and Photography Exhibition this Thursday 13th June from 6:00pm. 🎨📷✨

Come and celebrate the incredible work of our Year 11 and Upper Sixth artists. It is going to be a fantastic evening showcasing their creativity and talent. We can't wait to see you there!

Today marks the 80th anniversary of D-Day, a pivotal event in history that changed the course of World War II. On 6th June 1944, brave soldiers from Allied nations stormed the beaches of Normandy, facing unimaginable challenges and displaying extraordinary courage.

📷We are reminded of their sacrifice by the beautiful poppies growing on the school terrace, a symbol of remembrance and hope

Lest we forget

Reminder to our Upper Sixth pupils to register to vote before the deadline of Tuesday 18th June.

It is your future, we strongly encourage you to have your say in it!

Any questions please do not hesitate to ask your teachers about the election.

If you turn 18 before the General Election on 4th July but after the deadline on 18th June, you will still be able to register to vote.

We hope you have had a lovely break. We are excited to welcome back all our pupils, refreshed and ready for the last half of the summer term! 🌞📚

Calling all Radnor parents and pupils! You're invited to our GCSE and A Level Art and Photography Exhibition on Thursday 13th June from 6:00pm.📷🎨✨

As our Year 11 and Upper Sixth pupils are in the midst of their examinations, we wanted to remind them all of the importance of self-care.

💛Mae our Therapy Dog will be in school almost every day and would be more than happy to spend some time with any pupils who are feeling overwhelmed.

💛 Ensure you are attending subject clinics and speaking to your teachers if you are less confident about a particular topic.

💛 Keep a healthy work-life balance! It can be easy to slip into an Eat-Sleep-Revise-Repeat routine but this is not the best way to achieve results. You will learn better if you are well-rested and take regular breaks for mindful activities, such as going for a walk, reading a book or doing some exercise.

We know that you are all working extremely hard. Remember - we are always here to support you!

Today, for Mental Health Awareness Week, Radnor House proudly wore green to stand together in support of mental well-being. Let's spark conversations, share kindness, and promote understanding. 💚
