The Cottesloe School Sixth Form

Congratulations to Maisie who took part in her first concert with The Wing Singers. She was part of a 70 strong choir and sang her heart out with over 20 songs.

Currently studying Animation at University and specialising in Stop Motion Isobel took the time to visit The Art department to talk our year 10s and 12s about their 6th form journey and their University experiences. It was wonderful to see what our ex student has been up to these past two years and to help inspire our next generation of Art students!

Congratulations to Year 7 Lucia for passing her Grade 1 Piano exam with Distinction. What a Superstar! #smashingyourgrade1piano #TCSINSPIRE

ABC Talk Series: Harry Phillips' Degree Apprenticeship Journey! What a pleasure to welcome back #classof2022 alum, Harry Phillips, for our second ABC Talk! Harry, who thrived in Finance, Business, Sports, and Core Maths at #TCSSixthForm, shared his inspiring journey into a #DegreeApprenticeship. He walked our Year 12s through his path from uncertainty to a Project Coordinator role at @hs2ltd highlighting the power of adaptability. Now fully qualified and set to become an Assistant Project Manager while completing his BSc in Project Management – what an achievement! Harry's insights on resilience, responsibility, and real-world apprenticeship experiences were invaluable. His story truly emphasizes that a Degree Apprenticeship is a brilliant post-18 option, offering both education and practical work. We're so proud of Harry and incredibly grateful for his engaging talk! #Thecottesloeschool #ABCTalk #TCSFutures #TCSCareerEducation

Huge congrats to Year 8 Poppy who became a National Champion at a cheerleading competition in June. Her team Crush Cheer absolutely smashed it, hitting zero and taking home first place! Another superb student success story!

Sibling success news from the Tring Midsummer Run 26th June A massive shout-out to Year 9 Josh I, who absolutely smashed it, winning the boys' Years 7 to 9 category. Josh has been running this race since preschool, and his commanding performance with a huge gap to the next athletes was truly impressive. And the success didn't stop there, his sister Freya I, came in a fantastic 2nd place in the girls' race, beating out a strong field of older girls and boys. It was neck and neck with our own Cottesloe athletes Year 7s George H and Phoebe C also putting in strong performances against older competition right to the finish line! #Teamcottesloe are so proud of all our runners. What an inspiring display of talent and determination.

Coming up this Monday 7th July. Please make sure you confirm attendance using this form https://bit.ly/44Fserg

Today, our Year 10 students had an incredible opportunity to witness a live debate between two leading university lecturers: Dr. Amna Whiston from Oxford University and Dr. Alex Carter from @cambridgeuniversity! They delved into the fascinating question: Can AI ever be as truly creative as humans? Our students were buzzing with insightful questions during the Q&A session, making it a truly interactive experience. This thought-provoking discussion was filmed for a podcast and will be featured on the Unbelievable? YouTube channel Thank you to our brilliant Science team for constantly raising the bar with external speakers that enrich our curriculum. #thecottesloeschool #Prepare #Aspire #Succeed
