KING'S BRUTON H EADLINES Easter Term 2022
“A small historical bastion of a school that is absolutely booming in the 21st century” (The Good Schools Guide)
This has been the first normal school term for two years, and it has been poignant that it was straight after the Spring Concert in 2020 that we all went into the first lockdown and, as I write, we are preparing to welcome parents to the Hauser & Wirth Recital Hall for our 2022 Spring Concert.
Lyon House won the Inter-House Debating Competition
The Easter Term is always very busy, and it has been great to get the rhythm of the School back to normality. Exam pupils have been focusing on their mock exams with the realisation that external exams, albeit slightly modified, will very likely take place next term. Besides all the outstanding extra-curricular activities, the boys and girls are working very hard with their teachers to ensure that they reach their academic potential. It has been veryThe good to resume musical concerts, with a thoroughly enjoyable Headmaster’s Swing into Spring evening in the Memorial Hall, which followed on Reflections from an excellent black tie Sixth Form Formal Dinner. Our two Ten Tors teams have practised effectively on Dartmoor, while the silver and gold Duke of Edinburgh groups have resumed practices for their summer expeditions. The final assembly of this Easter Term will be busy giving out prizes and colours, and this outstanding sporting year, across all ages, continues with excellent hockey, netball, cross-country and equestrian performances.
Sixth Form pupils enjoyed a wonderful Formal Dinner
I am delighted with the generous response from the whole school community to the Ukrainian School in a Bag charity appeal, but I know we all hope that over Easter, peace will prevail in that troubled corner of Europe. Best wishes to the whole King's community for a safe and restful Easter holidays. Ian Wilmshurst - Headmaster. Exciting times for the King's Foundation... Bruton School for Girls has joined King's Bruton and Hazlegrove Prep School as a third school in our Foundation.
