We end this week with a #StudentSpotlight
We love to celebrate all achievements of our students, be they in school or not. Every challenge and every achievement goes towards the education, experience, character and self-worth of an individual, and today we spotlight Malakai Morgan in Year 11.
Malakai is a member of the Swim Enfield squad and seems to be following in the footsteps (or rather, swim strokes!) of Josh Kirlew, one of our ex-students who competed in the Paris Olympic Games this summer.
Malakai performs at a high level in swimming, his main stroke being the butterfly at 50m and 100m. Due to his achievements and times this year ……
- Middlesex Champion in 100fly, 50m free and 50 fly
- South East and London Regional Silver Medalist at 50 fly and bronze at 100 fly
…….he has was invited to take part in the English Championships which is only offered to the top 40 swimmers in the country.
Malakai finished 12th in the 50m and 18th in the 100m which is an amazing achievement.
His efforts have also scored him to represent Middlesex in the National County Team Championships in October.
We join his family in being incredibly proud of Malakai’s achievements and wish and support him in all his future competitions and progress within the sport. Hopefully, we shall be spotlighting him again soon!
If your son is involved in/has achieved something that you are proud of, please let us know so we can celebrate him.

The first meeting of this academic year is on Wednesday 18 September at 7.30pm – it would be wonderful to see some new faces come along – all parents/carers, friends & family, school staff are welcome.
With the first full day of all students back in/completing induction nearly over, we have to say it was lovely to have the ‘school buzzing’ again.
We hope the Year 7s enjoyed their introduction to their new school day and that our new Year 12s are settling in.
Now it’s time to get the ball rolling with students gathering up as many house points as possible! There is everything to play for and we already have some scores on the first day back!
Behaviour, courtesy, uniform, work ethic, involvement, helpfulness, beautiful books, attendance, and of course, ‘tant que je puis’ (as much as I can) is all taken into consideration plus much more – so just be the best version of YOU!
Watch out for the monthly updates to see how your House is performing….
We can’t wait to see you all back in school next week!
We have been celebrating all things Asian in school over the past month including a couple of cultural days, themed lunches, literature, cooking lessons, art and much more…..

A fortnight of work experience for our Year 10 resulted in much valuable feedback; the boys have gained a much clearer understanding of various job roles and careers, and what it is like to be in a working environment. Employers have a chance to mentor students and help teach them some valuable skills.
Over the course of the 2 weeks, our staff went out and about all over London to meet up with most of the students in their places of work to check how they were getting on and receive feedback from the employers.
Students returned from their ‘postings’ either knowing that the industry they had experienced was exactly the one they would like to work within in the future or realising it really was not for them, thus saving further education in the wrong area. They now have a slightly better understanding of the working world and their lives enriched just that little bit more.
The only photos we have are of those young men who stayed with us in school and took up opportunities to work within the Catering and Premises departments. They were all given high praise for their commitment and effort that they put in to their jobs……and one photo of Nicholas who truly impressed Mrs McCall with the delicious sandwich he made for her in Tongue and Brisket!
