Senior School News

As School finishes up today for the Christmas Break we want to wish you all a merry Christmas filled with laughter and joy. 

Our pupils have excelled this week with a huge effort for #SedberghGivesBack. There are some incredible statistics to share from the day; over 800 tree guards were picked up for recycling on the fells, 180 year 3 and year 6 pupils received athletics coaching from our pupils, 1300 hedge row plants were planted at Cautley and 110 backpacks were prepared for the homeless. All of the Houses worked incredibly hard and made us proud to be Sedberghians. We are still taking donations to our chosen charity, the Red Cross, UK.

We're delighted this week to feature an interview with Pru, our supremely talented hockey captain who is heading to Princeton University - and don't miss the instructions for making your own salt-crystal decorations in our round of up Chemis-Trees, the final session of the Chemical Curiosities society for 2023. 

Our feature image this week is from our wonderful Ceremony of Carols held in the Chapel on 8th December. 

For families planning ahead to next year, our 2024 calendar of events is already available on the School website. 

SEDTalks: From Sedbergh to Princeton - Pru's Journey of Hockey, Academics, and Opportunity 

After Sedbergh, Pru - Captain of the Hockey Team and England pathways player - will be going to Princeton University in the United States to study and play hockey. Pru came from France to join the School in Year 10 and it was in France that her love of hockey began. Pru talks about how she is following the sport she loves to take up the 'unmissable' opportunity to study in the US. 

#SedberghGivesBack

Every December the whole school takes a day away from study to volunteer their time and effort to give back. Working and helping out in local communities with projects (from Sedbergh to Liverpool and Kendal) and at the same time to raising funds for our annual Christmas Charity - which this year is the Red Cross. You can donate to our Christmas Charity or click below to see a snapshot of the activities undertaken by our Houses.
