WHAT AN OPPORTUNITY....
On 14th March, a sold-out event brought parents, staff, and alumnae together for a stunning performance of ‘Dido and Aeneas’ at Trinity College Chapel, Cambridge.
Before the show, with special thanks to Marie-Lise Quaradeghini (Class of 1994), guests enjoyed lunch at Trinity Hall College and an introduction by Mr Head from our Music Department.
Despite the demanding setting and music, our students, supported by dedicated staff, excelled –gaining experience and confidence.
Over £2000 was generously donated to the OGA Alumnae and Parents’ Appeals to widen access to amazing opportunities for young women. Thank you!
ONE PERCENT CLUB
Our vision is to unite parents as philanthropists, providing full bursaries for talented young women to access NHEHS’s exceptional education and facilities.
Please join our 71 families who donate 1% of their fees to give a talented young woman an awardwinning, aspirational yet grounded education.
1% of net fees currently equals £14.29/month for Junior School parents and £18.52/month for Senior School parents. (This rises in September by 50p for JS parents and 65p for SS parents.)
As a charity, GDST can claim Gift Aid, increasing donations by 25%, so every single new family joining the club can make a significant difference
