The end of a busy Spring Term
As we approach the end of the Spring Term I have been reflecting on another busy period in the school year.
Once again the boys have much to be proud of in the breadth of the activities and achievements they have been involved with this term. Our Year 6 boys have done really well with over 90% of the boys achieving passes to either Grammar or Selective Independent Schools.
May I take this opportunity to thank you for the support and feedback that so many parents have provided this term. I hope that you all have a relaxing break and I look forward to seeing you all at the beginning of the Summer Term.
Mr South, Headmaster

Year 6 work on their own School Newspaper
Year 6 have been working on newspaper articles in English and they are now making a newspaper!
In this newspaper you will find variety of articles. There is a gossip column although the articles should take up more than a column. The task was to do 2 or 3 articles per person. One article was chosen by each boy while the other(s) was selected for them by Mr. Cater. There were also some competition articles. Year 6 have worked hard to make the articles. So we proudly present the 'The Elmhurst Times' . We hope you enjoy the newspaper.
