Josie achieved an impressive ten grade 9s and one grade 8. She plans to pursue A levels in Biology, Chemistry, Physics and Spanish. Her father, Adam, said: “St Helen’s has prepared Jo brilliantly. We’re glad that her hard work has finally come to fruition.” #GCSEResultsDay2024

Earlier this week, Year 10 spent the day taking part in School of Comedy - comedians flexed their creativity coming up with ideas, workshopping material and drafting scripts, all of which were performed in our Science Atrium later in the afternoon #SHSKActivitiesWeek
I really enjoyed our first actual in-person Parents’ Meeting since 2020. It felt purposeful, busy and sociable.
It was so good to welcome Y9 parents to @SHSKSchool this evening for in- person meetings with teachers. Lots of great conversations and, hopefully, options beginning to crystallise @SHSKMiddle
That was such fun! The first performance of the Staff Choir🎄
We’ve had a brilliant first day of performances at our annual #SHSKChristmas Revue - singing, dancing, gymnastics and plenty of festive cheer in our seasonal showcase of talent 🎵🎄
Fabulous Middle School production of ‘A Christmas Carol’ - definitely feeling Christmassy!!
Well, we’re certainly feeling Christmassy now - what a show!
Bravo to all our amazing @SHSKMiddle performers, a wonderfully seasonal production #SHSKChristmas @SHSKDrama

Bea’s (9L) “The Star of Bethlehem” card design was inspired by the journey of the three kings as they followed the star to Bethlehem, hoping it would lead them to Jesus #SHSKChristmas #AdventCalendar

For her #SHSKChristmas card, Samantha (9M) was inspired by Desmond Tutu’s quote “Hope is being able to see that there is light despite all of the darkness” – she said her piece symbolises that there is always good, even if you are surrounded by hopelessness #AdventCalendar

This metaphor is longer than I usually favor, but it captures an important dynamic between parents and their teens. Our teenagers don't become a little bit more independent each day. Instead, they move back and forth - clinging to us and then pushing away like swimmers in a pool.

“Hopefully Waiting” – when asked about her #Christmas card design, Ceci (11K) said: I was inspired by my dog hopefully waiting for someone to come home at the end of a snowy Christmas day #SHSKChristmas #AdventCalendar

On the first day of #Advent we’re sharing “Tree of Light” by Jessica (9J): I was inspired to design the “Tree of Light” because, for me, light means hope and all the fairy lights and candles at Christmas make it such a special occasion #SHSKChristmas #AdventCalendar
