An outstanding end to the week as a huge crowd flocked to Culmer to roar our Boys U15s to the final of the @schoolsfootball Cup after a 5-4 thriller! #bridewellschools #magicofthecup
Over half term, we had a fantastic time skiing in Madonna di Campiglio, Italy! ❄️ The weather was perfect, with sunshine following a week of fresh snowfall, creating ideal skiing conditions.
Our pupils made the most of every day on the slopes and enjoyed evening activities like snowshoe walking and sledging. A huge well done to everyone for their enthusiasm and effort throughout the trip!
Our broad co-curricular programme ignites new passions and provides opportunities to learn and do both at home and away.

🏄 🌴 SURFING PARADISE - Fuerteventura 🇪🇸📍
Our pupils (and brilliant staff!) had an incredible time surfing and exploring stunning Fuerteventura in the Canary Islands—a perfect escape from the cold February winter to the warm sunshine!
Encouraging our pupils to find passions beyond the classroom, our broad co-curricular and activities programme offers immense opportunities to travel internationally and experience ‘more & different’ in every sense.
