Good morning, Cantell!
Our Student Leadership Community Team have been busy collecting donated items for the Southampton City Basics Bank this week.
It’s been lovely seeing students quietly bringing things in to help others - small acts that make a real difference.
A big thank you to everyone who has already contributed. Donations are still welcome next week if you’d like to get involved 💛
Fantastic efforts from our 11C & D GCSE Business students attending a Saturday session over the weekend to help prepare for their forthcoming mock exams. They worked really hard to make sure they have strong subject knowledge and the right exam technique. Top job 👏🏼👏🏼

A huge congratulations to Kat (Year 10) and Hezbawi (Year 11), who both represented Hampshire in the Under-17s race at the Inter-Counties Cross Country event in Chelmsford on Saturday.
Competing in extremely strong fields from across the southern region, both athletes delivered fantastic performances:
✨ Kat placed 7th for Team Hampshire
🥈 Hezbawi finished an incredible 2nd overall
Cross country racing takes real resilience, focus and determination and we are so proud of the commitment they show week in, week out - not just on race day, but in every training session too.
Please join us in congratulating them on a brilliant effort this weekend and for always representing the school with such dedication and pride. What an achievement!

📸 Our Year 10 students took their photography learning beyond the classroom on a Photography Trip around Southampton, completing a series of creative challenges around the city.
They experimented with high and low angles, reflections, shadows, leading lines and architectural details, capturing buildings and street scenes from fresh perspectives while building confidence behind the camera.
We’re excited to see their final shots!
