Over the month of October here at The Hurlingham Academy we are very much looking outwards at the world around us, with the commencement of Black History Month.
Newsletter 11.10.24
This week I have been reflecting on the vital role our pupils play every day here at The Hurlingham Academy, and how ultimately the success of the academy is down to them. One team of pupils who have played a vital role over the first few weeks are our year 11 prefects.

What a week it has been for The Hurlingham Academy, with my favourite event in the calendar, open evening. It’s fair to say this year’s did not disappoint.

I can’t believe it is the end of September already, it has gone by in a flash. It may only be the third full week of term but already we have had 4 trips, 2 theatre workshops and 2 song writing workshops.

I cannot believe that we are only 2 full weeks into the new academic year. We have settled quickly into what we do best: teaching and learning. The school has very much picked up where we left off, with wonderfully calm, focused classrooms led by passionate, expert teachers.

I personally love the month of September. I love that it brings so many new possibilities and opportunities. I enjoy sitting down and setting myself some new goals for the upcoming academic year.

I would like to begin by welcoming back all pupils, parents and staff. I hope you have all had a fantastic summer break and are as excited as I am to begin the new school year. I would like to extend my welcome to all new pupils and parents join-ing us.

Just like that another school year is over. I know I always say it, but I cannot believe how quickly the past couple of weeks have gone- it feels like we have only just finished GCSEs and the end of term is already here. It must be because of the action packed schedule we have had over the last few weeks.
