Today, we marked our Remembrance Day Assembly led by Dr Wallace, Head of History, alongside Indy and Maya, who shared the stories of local heroes. At 11:00 am, we observed a two-minute silence to honour all those who served in wars and those affected by conflict. Lest we forget.

Today, as part of Anti-Bullying Week, Sydenham High Prep embraced Odd Socks Day, celebrating individuality and supporting diversity. Each pair of mismatched socks reminded us that our unique qualities make us special. 🌈 #forgeyourfuture #oddsockday

We enjoyed fascinating talks about sustainable architecture and fast fashion at the GDST Sustainability Conference. Pupils explored the importance of bees, how to sew + mend clothes, potted plants in 3D printed recycled plastic pots and networked with girls across the Trust. #eco

#AntiBullyingWeek: Choose Respect 🌟 This week, we came together in our assembly to embrace #ChooseRespect, exploring how respect builds a positive community and how to disagree without conflict. By choosing respect and kindness, we create a safe, supportive space for all. 💙
