Just this year, Iby was at the centre of the assembly we gave to students as part of Holocaust Memorial Day. We are deeply saddened by this news. What a remarkable person.
We are very saddened to announce that our dear friend and supporter, Holocaust survivor and author, Iby Knill, has passed away aged 97. 77 years after she was liberated on Easter Sunday 1945. We are heartbroken. Our thoughts are with her family at this time.
A fabulous creative activity designed by our PGCE student! The Glorious Revolution taught through a puppet show…

Sounds amazing!
We can't wait for Monday when @PlymPrivateer will teach us about the experiences of women during the Civil Wars ranging from members of the royal family & noble ladies to ordinary women. Perfect for #historyteachers & students learning about the Civil Wars bit.ly/3nhDsx6

Year 7 enjoyed two really interesting and informative sessions at Ely Cathedral this morning. They now all have their own pomanders!

Thank you so much @DisabledArchaeo for your talk this afternoon. One student was honestly left ‘speechless’ following it. It really was an incredible and thought provoking talk.

We’re so proud of you, Year 11. We wish you all the best for your very bright futures ahead!
Our Year 11 students have been an example to us all this year. They have shown incredible maturity and taken a very challenging eighteen months completely in their stride. They have earned their results many times over. We are all extremely proud of them. Congratulations!
