About the ham

Why 'The Ham'?

The Ham is a name that some of you girls suggested! A play on "Cheltenham" :)

What is 'The Ham'

We've created The Ham as Cheltenham's first school newspaper/magazine. We thought that a school magazine could be a great place for Cheltenham Girls to share their passions. We wanted this to be a place where you can show off some of your talents, and in particular, encourage you all to start writing more! We believe that all of you have really important things to say and we would love to amplify your voices in a fun space like this!

Future of The Ham

Whilst the prefects have created The Ham as a part of our major project the Passion Project, we would love to see the Ham live on long after we leave. We hope that if you like The Ham and the idea of a student run Cheltenham magazine, some of you can pick this up and run with it, making The Ham yours and shaping it into something that you believe reflects who we are as Cheltenham Girls.
