Weekly Reflections: Self-improvement and Marginal Gains

Our Head, Ms Heidi-Jayne Boyes, reflects on the theme of the week. This week’s theme was ‘reflections’ so I talked about a book I read over the break Will It Make The Boat Go Faster? by Royal High Alumna, Harriet Beveridge and Ben Hunt-Davis MBE. Now I am interested in self-improvement and how marginal gains – those small, incremental 1% changes to the way we operate – help us to better ourselves, and, as learners for life, I feel we should all give time to consider how we can be that little bit better at some of what we do.

Multi-award-winning author Kiran Millwood Hargrave visit

Students enjoyed an end of term treat when we were delighted to welcome the multi-award-winning author Kiran Millwood Hargrave to Royal High. Kiran has won, and been shortlisted for, many book awards including the Waterstones Children's Book Prize and the British Book Awards Children's Book. Most recently in 2023 she was awarded the Wainwright Prize for Nature Writing for Children for Leila and the Fox. Many of the students in years 5, 6 and 7 were already familiar with Kiran’s books and were very excited to hear about the latest book in her new Geomancer trilogy The Storm and the Sea Hawk.

Weekend in Boarding - Karaoke fun

On Saturday evening all Y7-11 boarders enjoyed an evening of karaoke in the Rebecca Barrell Room with a professional karaoke set and disco lights. They sung mostly in groups and there was one excellent solo. We heard renditions of 'My Heart Will Go On', 'I Want It that Way', 'Call Me Maybe', and 'Baby' to name a few. The girls were enthusiastic singing and had encouragement from some dancing in the audience.

Fantastic funds raised at Curry and Quiz Night

After a break of over two years, it was a pleasure to resurrect the Curry and Quiz night last month.  The enthusiasm to take part was evident, as the event was a sell out within about forty-eight hours. Given our objective was to raise money for our fabulous performing arts department and their purchase of radio mics; the evening promised to be both fun and purposeful.
