As ever, this has been another
exciting year of conspicuous
achievement in many areas of
school life. Sport, music and
drama have all excelled
consistently throughout the
year. And academic
achievement, inspired by a
new headmaster who has
consistently encouraged
learning purely for the joy of
learning, has seldom been
higher.

throughout the year, where
you'll find among many other
areas of interest, match reports
on every sports fixture played.
New leadership from
headmaster Richard Biggs has
given fresh emphasis to
academic study, while our
renowned family atmosphere
is stronger than ever. The
school is full, and there is a
bustle of energy about the
place, which you'll see
reflected in the following
pages. I hope you enjoy an
invigorating read!
