Re fl ec ti ons and Contempla ti ons: A year of old and new WELCOME
It is with immense pleasure and a touch of excitement that I welcome you to this year’s edi ti on of Have Mynde. This introduc ti on holds a special place in my heart as it marks my fi rst since taking up the Headship at The Queen’s School. And reading the contents I can honestly say “What a year it has been!” Every day, I am fi lled with pride and gra ti tude to lead such an extraordinary ins ti tu ti on, brimming with talented, and spirited, young women.
Re fl ec ti ng on the past year, I am con ti nually astounded by the remarkable achievements of our girls. They have not only excelled academically but have also shone brightly in sports, arts, and community ini ti a ti ves. It’s clear to me that the spirit of Queen’s is alive and thriving in every corner of our school. One of the highlights of my year has been witnessing the girls’ dedica ti on and passion across a variety of ac ti vi ti es. From the awe ‐ inspiring performances in our school produc ti ons, where I am convinced we have a few future West End stars in our midst, to the determined and unyielding spirit displayed on the sports fi eld, our students have shown that they are capable of great things. They have embraced challenges with enthusiasm and resilience, quali ti es that will serve them well in all their future endeavours. These are the moments that build our community and create memories that will last a life ti me. In our classrooms, the pursuit of knowledge and understanding has been nothing short of inspiring. Our students have engaged with complex subjects and have produced work of the highest calibre. Their curiosity and drive to learn remind me daily of the importance of nurturing a suppor ti ve and s ti mula ti ng environment. I must also extend my hear tf elt thanks to our dedicated sta ff and suppor ti ve parents, whose contribu ti ons have been invaluable in making this year so successful. Your unwavering
support ensures that our girls have the best possible environment to fl ourish and grow.
So, as we turn the pages of this year’s Have Mynde, I hope you share in my pride and admira ti on for our pupils’ achievements. This publica ti on is a testament to their hard work, crea ti vity, and the vibrant spirit of The Queen’s School. Here’s to another fantas ti c year of growth, learning, and unforge tt able experiences. Thank you for being part of this incredible journey. Enjoy the read, and let’s look forward to even more success in the year ahead.
