It is my honour and privilege to be leading such an outstanding school.

β¨ What an incredible adventure! Last week, seventy-two pupils from St Lawrence College`s Year 9 to Year 12 participated in the exhilarating Combined Cadet Force (CCF) Summer Camp at St Martin Plain Camp near Folkestone.
Under the leadership of Major Nick Hill and supported by eight dedicated staff members, our cadets immersed themselves in a week of skill-building and camaraderie. They tackled everything from stand up paddle boarding and mountain biking (with some puncture repair lessons thrown in!) to field craft skills and rifle shooting. π£ββοΈπ΄ββοΈπ―

π We are almost at the end of our Summer Term and what a busy one it has been so far!
Our Year 11 pupils recently celebrated the end of their exams with a lively BBQ on Chapel Green - a wonderful gathering of pupils, tutors and teachers. It was especially memorable as it marked the students` final appearance in their traditional school uniforms before transitioning to Sixth Form.
Mr Ben Pennells, Deputy Head Academic, praised the students for their hard work: βWell done to all for completing their exams. Enjoy your summer break!β ππ

We`re thrilled to share an update on our prestigious Exchange Programme with St Benedict`s College in South Africa. This unique initiative, tailored for elite boys from the Sports Excellence Programme, spans six weeks and facilitates an annual exchange of six Lower Sixth Form students from each school.
π¬πFreddie, a rugby player, shares: βThe experience at St Benedictβs has been incredible. From the welcoming atmosphere to the electrifying first team rugby matches, every moment has been unforgettable. Playing with the passionate support of the whole school was overwhelming. Off the pitch, I`ve enjoyed making new friends, trying new foods, and attending fascinating lessons like Afrikaans and sustainable hunting. This experience will stay with me forever.β
π¬π Nana, a hockey player, adds: βBeing part of the Bennies culture has been amazing, from war cry practices to boarding house trips. On the field, our team showed great resilience, securing four wins, two draws, and a loss. The crowd`s energy, especially during our win against King Edwardβs School, was indescribable. Off the field, activities like bowling, arcade trips, and visiting Loftus Stadium have balanced the intensity of training and matches. These past weeks have been busy but fantastic, and I look forward to more memorable moments.β
