Chatting with Channing
Year 6 had an unforgettable time on the Isle of Wight for their final residential trip at the Junior School! From fossil hunting and surfing to exploring Osborne House and Carisbrooke Castle, it was all sunshine, fun and lifelong memories! ☀️🦖🏄♀️🏰
Research consistently shows that social reading experiences play an important role in developing a lifelong love of reading. With this in mind, our Year 10 students recently launched a 1:1 reading programme with Key Stage 2 pupils from Whitehall Park, one of our partner schools.
The sessions provide a valuable opportunity for students to come together and talk about books. Conversations ranged from favourite characters to big ideas, as they explored stories full of adventure, mystery and imagination. It has been a thoughtful and engaging way to connect through reading across age groups.
Last Friday’s Music at Lunchtime concert dazzled with powerful Hamilton performances! From the stirring harmonies in “Schuyler Sisters” to the emotional finale “Burn,” the cast of seven wowed us all. Huge kudos to the performers and the team behind the scenes! Watch the full concert on our website!
On Wednesday, 14th May, the U13s won the ISFA Essex Region 7-a-side tournament. The team remained undefeated throughout the group and knockout stages, conceding only one goal. The final against Belmont went to penalties, which Channing won comfortably to secure the title. This victory now qualifies them for the national finals, to be held in June at St George`s Park.
At Channing, we uphold our Unitarian heritage by encouraging the girls to be kind and to develop respect for all faiths and cultures in an inclusive environment, as well as a sense of individual and social responsibility. This is enshrined in the Channing Promise, which all staff and students abide by at our School. In the Junior School we focus on developing the eight Channing Characters—created by the girls and the staff—to give pupils the confidence to navigate life effectively and happily. These values are embedded throughout the educational experience. Find out more about our ethos and Character Education at one of our Junior School Open Days.
