I so enjoyed speaking at SirJohnColfoxAcademy yesterday as part of Bridport Literary Festival. The Academy has launched a Classics Hub to give pupils the chance to learn Greek(!) and Latin as well as Ancient History & Class Civ. This is brilliant news.

Colfox Remembers - our busy school fell silent at 11am today as we remembered - well done to all students who created our Poppy Wall of Remembrance & all those who volunteered to sell poppies. #RemembranceDay2024 #PoppyAppeal

Day 1! Chilly and the snow has arrived. The length of Manhattan walked and some tired feet. Great trip to the greatest city in the world! #jointsixthform #beaminster #colfox

After the snow came the rain! Despite a drenching we still managed to have a great time in New York. The weather looks better today!

A windy morning spent on The Edge viewing platform, followed by a walk along the High Line, lunch in Chelsea Market, a graffiti tour in Brooklyn and a trip to the theatre on Broadway. We have certainly packed it in!

World Book Day! Our Student Librarians gave out hundreds of free books & we enjoyed a find the character scavenger hunt! 📚💕
