The school would like to show it's appreciation to Princes Gate Mineral Water for their very generous donation of 42 large packs of water. The school has been offering bottles of water and toast for the last two weeks to learners in the mornings where GCSE and AS/A Level exams have been taking place, helping learners to be properly hydrated to aid their exam performance. We will continue to offer this service throughout the exam season when morning exams are scheduled. The school had been purchasing bottles of water for learners from supermarkets, so we were delighted when Princes Gate very kindly offered to donate over 750 bottles. A huge thanks to Princes Gate on behalf of the school and our examinees. Read More…
