Thank you to everyone who joined us for our end of term Christmas Fayre. It was wonderful to see so many of you before the winter break.
It was a pleasure to welcome (and welcome back in many cases), our vendors who make the event possible with all their wonderful gifts. Year 6 you also did a brilliant job with your stalls too!
As the students recharge their batteries for an exciting new chapter in 2026, the school remains open until 24th Dec, so please do contact us if you need us.
Wishing everyone a restful and peaceful Christmas break.

Last night saw our Quinton community come together for our annual Christmas carol concert, but this year held a special importance.
The evening brought, students, their families and staff together to remember and honour Miss Joanna Stone, Head of Music, who has left us too soon.
The words spoken and memories shared are a true testament to the teacher and person she was and she will be truly missed.
To all of the students who stood with courage and spoke from the heart or sang carols in her honour, at what was one of her favourite events of the year, you should feel incredibly proud.
Our thoughts remain with Miss Stone’s friends and family.
🎼 You Will Be Found from ‘Dear Evan Hansen’, a personal favourite of Miss Stone’s and performed by her Performing Arts Ambassadors on the night.
//Lead with Purpose//
Our Year 12 economists had a fantastic day in London, starting with a visit to the Bank of England Museum, where they caught up with former Head Boy Jack B, who successfully secured a prestigious degree apprenticeship with the Bank of England.
Students didn’t hold back — grilling him on degree apprenticeships, career pathways, and life working at the Bank of England!
After a lunch stop in Covent Garden, they made their way to the London School of Economics, where one of LSE’s brilliant student ambassadors, gave them an inspiring tour of the campus.
A great day of insight, inspiration, and future-planning for our budding economists! 📊🌍

Last week was bursting with performance from our Prep School students, commencing with Year 2’s Christingle. Their seasonal songs were word perfect, delivered with courage and warmth.

//Excellence with Ambition//
Year 5&6 stepped into the world of Formula 1 when we welcomed back the inspiring STEMx team from @redbullracing for our latest Year 7 experience day.
The sessions centred around the challenge of how to build a winning F1 car including;
🏁 the pit wall challenge which tested their coding skills to navigate their remote controlled cars around some of the world famous race tracks.
🛞 the pit stop - could they challenge the 2 second tyre change of the professionals? (They got pretty close)!
🏎️ the STEM racing challenge - could they build their optimum race car and put it to the test on the speed track to finish in pole position? Well done to Ivy who topped the leaderboard! 👏
If you are looking for a Year 7 place with us in September 2026 and would like to find out more about our upcoming experience mornings, our Admissions Team are happy to help.
