As we come to the close of Term 1, it’s the perfect moment to reflect on the incredible achievements and experiences we’ve shared as a school community. 

From the start, we celebrated outstanding examination results, setting the tone for an inspiring year ahead. Our vibrant CCA programme has provided students with enriching opportunities to explore their interests and develop new skills. October saw us commemorate Black History Month with meaningful events and activities that sparked reflection and dialogue.

On the sporting front, our teams demonstrated determination and teamwork in a wide range of competitive fixtures, while our creative talents shone brightly in the Brilliant Battle of the Bands and the outstanding Senior Drama Production of Our Town. As we head into the final stretch of the term, we eagerly anticipate celebrating International Day, our much-loved House Festival and the wonderful spirit of Qatar National Day—truly ending the term in style!

Thank you to every student, staff member, and parent who has contributed to making this term such a success. It has been an amazing journey so far, and we look forward to even greater things after the winter break.

Wishing you all a restful and joyous holiday season.

We are thrilled to announce that our much-loved House Festival is returning for its third year on Monday, 16th December! This cherished school tradition is a celebration of community spirit, healthy competition, and all-around fun.

Students will compete in their house teams across a variety of exciting activities, including History's X Factor, dodgeball, press-up challenges, and, of course, the ever-popular staff tug-of-war!

To make the day a success, we ask all students to come prepared:

• Wear your house T-shirts proudly.

• Ensure you have sun protection, such as hats and sunscreen.

• Dress respectfully—shoulders, knees, and midriffs must be covered (any student not adhering to this may be sent home or asked for appropriate clothing to be sent in).

We look forward to seeing the vibrant house colours, enthusiastic team spirit, and smiles all around as we celebrate another memorable House Festival together!

Let the games begin!
