Thank you to all of our students and staff. We hope you had fun, learnt lots, and will be back again next year!


Sir Richard has been a lovely home for us this Summer!






















Celebrating after scoring a goal!
The students have also had lots of fun playing different sports.


I think we have some future Olympic stars!

This week we have had more fun in the Arts and Crafts room, making photo frames, bags, t-shirts, boxes, clay models... Here is some of the students' fantastic work:





The night before, we enjoyed our final talent show of the summer. A dramatic piano solo started the evening.


The dance students had worked very hard all week and on Saturday they performed five dances including their own choreography. Their focus and ability has really improved during the course and the dance teachers are all very proud of them!





Here are the football students with their end of course medals. The coaches have been very impressed with the students' ability and team spirit.



The two show hosts gave us a terrible- I mean brilliant ;) rendition of an Adele classic, ably supported by student Lova on the piano.

Thanks, boys...

To end the evening we had a team quiz with a very special Studio Cambridge round.



Staff member, Becky, managing the music and slideshow for the quiz!
On Sunday the students visited Oxford. They had some free time to shop and explore and they also went to the Ashmolean- an art and archaeology museum.




The excursions have all been fantastic- people particularly enjoyed going to a theme park in week 4:


The students were much braver than the staff!

Water balloon throwing!


Gladiator getting soaked...

Fun on the field!

Such a fun day! Thank you students and staff!

This Saturday we had an event special, with not only the Talent Show, but a Gladiator team event and a Get Your Own Back challenge as well. The lucky winners of each challenge poured 'gunge' over some very brave members of staff!
Drink the water before the others...

Find the sweets in the whipped cream...

The students take front row seats as the staff pace the gunge zone nervously...

A lucky winner chooses his gunge victim- well done, Teacher Zoe!



In week 3, the students had a sunny boat trip on the River Thames, before watching the classic family theatre show, The Wizard of Oz at the West End.
