Year 11 Graduation 2025
Last Friday our Year 11 Graduation took place in glorious sunshine! It was an opportunity to reflect on all our Year 11s have learnt and experienced during their time at St Bart’s, as well as a moment to celebrate achievements and friendships.
As is tradition, students and teachers signed shirts and this year we were pretty impressed with some of the elaborate shirt designs! Afterwards the year gathered in school hall to hear from Dr Fitter and to reminisce as the last five years were captured in a fantastic photo slideshow. Our Year 11 Tutors, who have been a part of our students’ journeys since they arrived at school as new Year 7s, handed out ‘Tutee of the Tutor Group’ Awards and students were set one last school test with a ‘guess the baby’ quiz (hint: they were all staff)! Mr Bandy, Assistant Headteacher KS4, then concluded the graduation with some special KS4 Awards before everyone headed back out into the sun to enjoy ice cream and their gift bags.
We really hope our Year 11s enjoyed the occasion. We wish them all the best in their upcoming exams and we thank them for all they have contributed to school life and the St Bart’s community. We look forward to welcoming many of them back to Sixth Form in September and, for those who move on to new adventures, we wish them the all the very best of success in their new endeavours.
BOOK RETURNS REQUEST – Y11 & Y13
Now that we are approaching exams and nearing the end of this academic year for Y11 and Y13, we would like to remind parents that your child’s textbooks, library books and laptops (if they have one) should be returned to the Library by Friday 20 June 2025, at the latest. Of course, at the moment students will still be using these resources to complete their studies, but please can you ensure that any resources belonging to school are returned once students have completed their exams. Please can students hand them to a member of the Library staff so we can check that their account is clear. Many thanks for your help. Students can come and speak to us in the Library if there are any questions or concerns.
