Weekly Reflections: Lifting others as we climb
At Royal High, student leadership isn't about popularity or titles. It’s not about being the loudest voice, but the voice that makes space for others. It’s about being present when it matters, taking initiative when others step back, and choosing to uplift rather than outshine.

Year 7 Students Embark on an International Treasure Hunt
Our school recently came alive with the sounds of different languages as our Year 12 Foreign Language Leaders hosted an exciting International Treasure Hunt for all Year 7 students. This fantastic event was designed to ignite a love for languages and celebrate the diverse cultures of the world in an interactive and engaging way. Year 7 students eagerly took on the challenge, working in teams to solve clues that led them to different 'countries' set up around the school. Each station represented a different nation, where students had to complete language-based activities in French, German, Mandarin, and Spanish before moving on to their next destination. The competitive spirit was high as students raced against each other to solve the clues, reinforcing their problem-solving skills while developing their linguistic abilities.
