Generous donations bring more music to Hymers

We are always very proud of the musical qualities of our pupils but thanks to two very generous donations, even more music has been filling Hymers this term.

The new organ has three manuals (keyboards) allowing an even greater breadth of options when it comes to producing different sounds. Unlike the previous organ, this one also has bass speakers housed underneath the stage. The sound really is incredibly impressive at the beginning and end of an assembly. Interestingly, this organ is the same make and model of organ as that currently used in Hull Minster.

It is not just our Main Hall that has been flooded with music, a beautiful new piano is currently installed in the Learning Resource Centre thanks to a generous anonymous donation. This beautiful piano is greatly enjoyed by our pupils at break and lunchtimes. Thank you to both of the donors who made these generous contributions to the school - they have provided a wonderful opportunity for our pupils to both play and enjoy listening to music.

Hymers Junior School release ‘Care Code’ video

The Care Code lies at the heart of everything we do in the Junior School. It is the reason it is such a friendly, supportive and happy learning environment.

We are very proud of our Care Code as it acts as a guide for all in the Hymers community as to how we conduct ourselves and how we interact with one another.

Junior School pupils get their dancing shoes on!

Our fantastic team of parents involved in the Hymers College Association (HCA) threw an amazing disco for our Junior School pupils in Gore.

Many years ago Gore was the old Gymnasium for the school.

Therefore in front of black and white photos of straight-laced gymnasts from decades ago, our modern Hymers pupils danced the night away to DJ music and flashing lights!

Thank you to our HCA for another fantastic event.

The term we released a fantastic video, made by our Junior School pupils and Mr Doyle, to explain what the Care Code means to them. You can find it at: youtube/hymers_college_care_code.
