Reed's In The News

@reeds_drama GCSE pupils Matthew K and Finlay F took the @reeds.golf squad to watch @starterfortenmusical @bristololdvic1766 last week whilst the team were in town for a golf training camp. A brilliant show that was much enjoyed by all!

Huge thanks to the @uniofsurrey @uosphysoc Physics and Astrophysics department for another brilliant lecture on hunting very faint (offensively so) galaxies. Dr Collins spoke passionately about her research and about the learning that comes from observations of these very faint galaxies and how they may lead us to know more about the dark matter that first seeded and now binds all galaxies. Our Sixth Form physics students also enjoyed the opportunity to look through telescopes and chat with @guildfordastro from the Stag Hill campus - some breathtaking sights! We look forward to returning in the Autumn!

We are so proud of the Fourth Form team who WON the south-east regional 2024 #MathsFeast at CFS this week! Monty J, Sam C, Tiago S and Hadley C scored a very impressive 95/100 on a range of challenging tasks. Sam's talent in #logic helped them to achieve 25/25 in the 2nd round!

As the Spring Term ends we look back on an exciting week. In Geography the Third Form designed and built their own earthquake-proof buildings out of spaghetti and marshmallows which were then tested by Mr Neat and Mr Moore shaking the desks. Only one 'building' withstood the quakes - congrats to Heath, Murray, Ollie and Jonny who expertly designed a counterweight which made their building indestructible! ⁠ In History a group of L6 students each put their case for the British Prime Minister they believe should be regarded as the greatest we’ve ever had. The premiers plucked from the realms of History ranged from the obligatory Churchill through to the undeservedly unknown Lord Salisbury. An open debate ensued with questions raining down from the audience - the results of both the judges’ vote and the public vote will be revealed at the start of next term! ⁠ #earthquakes⁠ #geography⁠ #history⁠ #greatestprimeminster⁠ #curiosity

Lower Sixth Form students recreated the Periodic Table out of homemade cookies. The final product was a fine example of teamwork and creativity. After the Periodic Table was made, the cookies were then sold in aid if The Royal Marsden Cancer Charity. Well done to all the students involved. ⁠ ⁠ All the students involved in Lower Sixth Form collaborated to construct a representation of the Periodic Table using cookies they made themselves. The end result showcased their exceptional teamwork and innovative thinking. The cookies were sold and the proceeds will support @royalmarsden Cancer Charity. ⁠ ⁠ #royalmarsden #periodictable #chemistry #science #compassion
