Community Service

n The Junior School’s commitment to community service was as prominent as ever last year, with each Year Group undertaking their own community service project. Arguably, the highlight of these projects was the Year 5 Community Christmas Tea Party, which was held in the Hall in early December. Pupils hosted the party for residents of local care homes; the boys served them tea and cakes, performed festive carols, and made them cards, presents and crackers to take away. Other highlights of the year included the Year 4 visit to the Brixton and Norwood Foodbank, and the Year 6 involvement with planning and organising the sports day for the The Rainbow Club in Lewisham, a Saturday School for refugee children run by AFRiL (Action for Refugees in Lewisham).

n In November, seven Junior School boys, accompanied by Dr Griffiths and Mr Wickstead, took part in the Lord Mayor’s parade, having been invited by The Worshipful Company of Pewterers to join them on the long six-mile walk in honour of the new Lord Mayor. Starting from Mansion House and finishing at the Bank of England, all participants enjoyed a wonderful lunch at Pewterers Hall before going home.
