LHS Newsletter: 12 September 2024

{item_alt_tag}

Dear Parents,

Welcome to the first newsletter of the academic year! I hope you had a fantastic summer and enjoyed some of the highlights of our School’s achievements, including our outstanding GCSE results, which were the best in Leicestershire and Rutland according to the Telegraph's league tables. We also celebrated impressive A-level results.

In the past two weeks, our students have been participating in various activities, including a fascinating Biology trip to Cranedale, and an Art and Drama residential in London.

As we look ahead, I encourage you to help us spread the word about our upcoming Open Morning on 28th September. 

Additionally, remember that our Little Learners Playgroup for children aged 0–5 meets every Wednesday from 9:00 to 10:30 am. I hope many of you enjoy the Meet and Greet events this week.

Thank you for being an integral part of our school community. We’re excited for a year filled with learning and new opportunities.

Mr Alan Whelpdale,

Headmaster
