Dear Year 7 Parents,
As you will be aware, our annual Medieval Banquet is taking place on the afternoon of Wednesday, 25th March.
We are still inviting "consent letters" for any students who are brave enough to volunteer for the stocks! If your child would like to participate in this particular historical re-enactment, please send in a brief note of permission.
The Library will have a regular stationery shop available for students! We have everything students need for their lessons, from rulers and protractors to highlighters, flash cards, and pens.
The air in the Dane Court Grammar School theatre was electric this week, as students gathered for the annual House Music Cup on Wednesday the 4th March. It was a spectacular showcase of talent, grit, and harmony, with our six houses—Barcelona, Delphi, Neuchâtel, Helsinki, Sorrento, and Tallinn—battling it out for the top spot.
Our external judges, all professional musicians, were blown away by the excellent quality of the performances. They particularly noted the impressive surge in participation this year, proving that the musical spirit at Dane Court is stronger than ever.
The competition was split into three distinct categories, each bringing its own unique energy to the stage.

Over February half term, the Science Department led by Ms Sabic took 40 year 10 and 12 students to Italian Dolomites, the region where the Winter Olympic Games took place this year.
We stayed in a nice hotel (Orsa Maggiore) where the staff were really friendly and didn't mind opening room doors to locked out children many times during the week. Some enjoyed the games room and even the sauna at the hotel.

Reclaim your Tuesday evenings with the Community Choir. This ensemble is a dedicated space for our broader school family—staff, teachers, and alumni—to step away from the desk and into the music. Whether you are a seasoned choral singer or haven't read a note of music since school, our rehearsals are designed to be rewarding and relaxed. Our repertoire is a blend of contemporary classical works and reimagined pop arrangements, offering something for every palette. There are no auditions and no pressure—just a shared commitment to creating a brilliant sound, fostering a sense of connection through song, and having fun together.
