Mr Wolsey gave the Remembrance Service address this morning. Inspired by Peter Jackson's #TheyShallNotGrowOld, he urged us to "touch fingers" with the WWI generation and strive to keep memory of the conflict and its combatants alive, to learn and pass on the lessons of history.
There was no stopping Brearley House yesterday clinching overall victory in the House Music Competition, after wins in 'Classical' and 'Pop' categories. Paget House, however, took top spot in 'Choral'. Many thanks to Mr Philip Berg, Adjudicator and well done the School of Music.

We thank all our contributors who joined us for another extremely successful Tutorial Day last Friday, including @stem4org who ran a stimulating conference on mental health, and @foundationdsm, the drug and alcohol education charity, from whom pupils learned about Dan's story. https://t.co/d7OlFl8YAz

Thank you to Feltham Construction for posting this image. It's wonderful to see the great progress being made on our magnificent new Refectory as the roof line now begins to take shape. https://t.co/yzKvh5dc1o
We were most grateful to novelist @malcolmduffyUK for visiting us today. His discussion of 'Me Mam Me Dad Me' certainly inspired Senior 9 to get hold of a copy and start reading at the earliest. We wish him every success with his second novel. https://t.co/lSqCERKhB7
Tickets still available for 'Allelujah!' this Thursday. A great production which has had some excellent reviews.

Another wonderful IPS Singers' Tour sets off over half term next week. This time the group will be singing in Vienna where they will be based, and we understand there will also be time to sample the many cultural delights of the city and environs too. Best of luck to all.
This weekend sees Italian, Latin and Classical Civilisation pupils flying off to Sorrento. It promises to be a wonderful trip with an exciting itinerary that includes visits to Mount Vesuvius, the Isle of Capri, Pompeii and Herculaneum. Caecilius' house even features!
IPS footballers from Senior 8 and Senior 9 are heading off to Rotterdam today for a football tour in the Netherlands. Bon voyage.
The Gold Duke of Edinburgh's Award Practice Expedition is now out in Snowdonia for five days of adventure. Good luck to all.
Best of luck to all those heading out to Spain this week on the netball trip. https://t.co/axus75bzmf
It was great to have pupils from the Mosaic Jewish Primary School in yesterday for an afternoon spent in the Science Faculty. The children investigated different colours of metal compounds in flames, and learned a new and important skill - operating a Bunsen burner safely.
Pleasing to report the School of Music's arrangements with Jesus College, Cambridge, to take our Chamber Choir, Schola Cantorum, to sing Evensong alongside their choral scholars at the start of the next term. Oxbridge choral scholars of the future, perhaps?
Although there were some rather weary looking PVIs in School today, they could take pride in their achievement of having braved the wilds of the Brecon Beacons over the weekend in pursuit of their Silver Duke of Edinburgh's Award - and survived with many a great tale to tell.
