• We have just survived two days of our initial ISI school inspection. Two inspectors spent Tuesday and Wednesday with us as part of an initial assessment prior to the full inspection starting on Monday 8th March. Year 13 boys helped by acting as guides and all pulled together to give a very good impression. Chris Payne, Jordon Foster, Harry Wilson and Charlie Emerson all spoke in Senior Assembly this morning, in front of an inspector and delivered their sports reports with great calm and confident delivery. James Briggs spoke about how he came to rowing (see above).

• Last week we held a mufti day in order to raise funds for the Haiti Disaster Fund. We raised a grand total of £754.63. Heads of Houses were responsible for collecting the money and clearly their powers of persuasion worked.

• Congratulations to Alex our house cleaner on the birth of his daughter, Alexandra.
