Chatting with Channing
Today we celebrated the Topping Out Ceremony for the Brunner House Build - a tradition that marks the completion of a building`s framework. Our STEM leaders had the privilege of joining Mrs Lindsey Hughes and members of our school community for an exclusive walkthrough of what will soon be our brand new, state-of-the-art STEM building!
Year 3 spent their history lesson being archaeologists this week. They investigated various Bronze Age artefacts and used this to learn more about this time period.
It was fantastic to welcome so many visitors to our Open Evening last night! At Channing, our vision is simple yet profound: “Girls Enjoying Success.” This isn’t just a motto; it’s the very fabric of our educational philosophy. We cultivate an atmosphere where every girl feels empowered, valued and supported to discover her unique talents and achieve her personal best. Our ethos of Fearless Learning encourages girls to step out of their comfort zones, embrace new challenges and learn from every experience. As the Good Schools Guide notes, we inspire girls to be “10 percent braver,” a valuable life lesson that extends far beyond the classroom.
Year 5 enjoyed testing the conductivity of different materials in Science today, observing which material, when placed into their circuit, would make their bulb shine the brightest!
A huge thank you to our amazing catering team for putting together a delicious meal and transforming our dining hall in celebration of Black History Month.
