We’ve all nearly made it…

I hope everyone was able to stay safe in Storm Amy’s high winds over the weekend. Last week was another packed and productive one for us at The Cottesloe School.  We hosted three more successful Open Mornings, giving many new families a glimpse into school life. Year 12s stepped up for a Team Talk Challenge with Hidden Leaders, and Biology students were inspired by a fascinating Virology talk from a researcher at Oxford University. I hope that all families who attended the Tutor Meetings found the opportunity valuable in discussing how their young person, whether they’re in Year 7, Year 13, or anywhere in between, has settled into this new term.

The third full week of the academic year is now underway, and so far the term has been filled with energy and purpose. Our Year 7 students continue to impress with their seamless transition into school life, and all other year groups have shown a determined commitment to our core values: Prepare, Aspire, and Succeed. As we look ahead, we are excited to open our doors to prospective parents and their Year 6 children for a series of open mornings starting tomorrow. We extend our thanks in advance to our staff as well as our Sixth Form tour guides and Head Student presenters. A special mention goes to four incredible Year 7 students who, after only two weeks with us, will be speaking to a full hall of visitors, demonstrating the school's 6Cs in action.

Welcome back to The Cottesloe School for the start of a new academic year!

As we enter the penultimate week of what has been another incredibly busy and productive term, there's still a vibrant buzz of activity across The Cottesloe School, even though it was very hot last week!
