Examinations

Exams this term will be on Monday 19 November.  These will be primarily for Pre-Prep and middle school.

Martine Dunn

The department welcomes a new Speech and Drama teacher- Ms. Martine Dunn.  Martine will know many of the children as she used to be their

examiner! With these credentials, you can be assured your children will be in a safe pair of hands. Martine will be teaching Years 6 and 7 and then the

children will return to Mrs Jenkins in Year 8 for exams and scholarships.

It’s been a busy Summer!

Emily (Y6) and Henry W (Y4) having reached the Mediterranean at the end of a 364 mile bike ride

through France!

Albert W (Y5) was awarded the All-Rounder award for

the Burghill under 9’s and received medals for playing in both the under 9’s and under 11

squads.

Johnny D (Y3) has been awarded the under 9’s

coaches award by Burghill cricket club.

Robert (Y8) and Rosie (the pony) won 13hh M&M

Open Working Hunter Pony at the Royal Welsh Show.

Strong competition against adults and a tough technical course. Well done!

Alice S (Y8) and her pony

Monkey managed to qualify for

the Pony Club national Championships in all 3 disciplines

(a rare feat!)  - Dressage (individually), Show Jumping

(individually) and Eventing

(individually and as a team winning the qualifier).  Due to

timetable clashes she was only able to compete in 2 disciplines

at the Championships but came

home 8th in the dressage championships! Well done.
