The whole school assembled at the Sir Philip Sidney War Memorial for the Act of Remembrance. After the wreath-laying, prayer, and two-minute silence, Salopians placed their poppies by the tree outside the Main School Building. #RemembranceSunday #LestWeForget

It might have been one of the wettest Henley Regattas on record, but the Old Salopian contingent made the best of it. A particular highlight was a 40th anniversary row past by the the crew who won the prestigious Special Race for Schools in 1984 @SabrinaRowing #shrewsburyforlife

The first of 2 lunches at Henley Regatta. Thanks to Sabrina Club for organising. Join us again on Saturday at Henley Cricket Club. Later that day the victorious RSSBC crew from the 1984 Special Race for Schools will also be doing a 40th anniversary row past. #FloreatSalopia

A terrific effort from all three crews at Henley Qualifiers today. Sadly the Senior Girls VIII and the Senior Boys Quad missed out on one of the prized qualifying spots. A fantastic performance from the Senior Girls Quad saw them claim one of the seven qualifying spots from 46

We are delighted to see Shrewsbury ranked as the number 3 top school for Rowing in the UK in the Good Schools' Guide. This is testament to our rowing coaches and facilities, that have allowed Salopians to go on to national and international success. #RSSBC bit.ly/4abe7ds

Hoping for a dry spell so we can get all our crews out on the River Severn soon. It has been great to get some crews on the water at Lake Vyrnwy over the weekend.
