Boys get behind Green team

Mr Parker has pressed the green button for go and launched the Green Team at Ludgrove. The group of eager eco warriors joined Mr Parker, Mr Evans and Estates Manager Mr Heppolette to discuss what measures can be taken to help reduce the School’s energy consumption and move towards Net Zero.

With some great ideas under its belt, the group’s first tasks are to reduce Ludgrove’s energy use by 5% and cut back on food wastage at meal times. We will report back on how the initiative is going in the Summer term.

Eyes down for General Knowledge

The boys showed incredible concentration when they took to the stage to compete in the Sets General Knowledge final in the Theatre. There was great participation from all teams and support from the audience as the final placings were announced with Nelson coming out on top followed by Drake, Wellington, Kitchener, Jellicoe and Haig.

Congratulations to Mr Western-Kaye and the U10A team who remain undefeated at the end their second rugby term. Well done also to the other U10 teams who completed this season without losing a match.

Teaching tools for life

James Shone, from ‘I Can And I Am’, kicked off the term’s series of special guest speakers. Mr Shone shared with the boys his inspirational life-story which he uses to teach young people how to navigate challenges when they encounter set backs and anxiety. His was an extraordinarily honest and inspirational talk that has given our boys tools for life.
