Reed's In The News

With thanks to @surreydownsgolfclub for hosting today’s @schoolsgolf Area Final v @kgs_sport. The course and greens in remarkable condition, everyone appreciated being out and playing! Onto the Nationals!

The infamous magnolia tree in front of the school is suddenly in full bloom! A little bit of joy on this rainy, grey day. (Thanks to Mrs Lambert for the fab photo 😍) , #magnolia #springhassprung #springflowers

How fitting that in the week we celebrate #InternationalWomensDay we welcomed Nicci Clark, founder and CEO of Re:Nourish and the first-ever female winner of the UK Innovation Entrepreneur of the Year to talk to our A Level Business students. She spoke about her journey and the obstacles she faced, particularly as a female entrepreneur. Students were amazed to hear that, even in 2024, only 2p of every pound of finance lent to support entrepreneurs went to women, with 89p going to men and the rest to mixed gender co-founders. Nicci provided a captivating insight into the incredible growth that her fresh soup business has experienced from the production of the first bottle in 2019 to the widely distributed, international business it is today, picking up multiple awards along the way. @renourish_soup . #entrepreneur #femaleentrepreneurs #inspiringwomen

To mark International Women’s Day our Sixth Form girls were invited to a Girls’ Breakfast where they met 2 Old Reedonians, Rachel and Liv, who inspired them by talking about opportunities for women and the challenges they face as women within their industries, being in film and as a police officer. Upper Sixth Prefect, Ruby M spoke on this year's IWD theme #inspireinclusion, and reflected on how proud she was to be a Reed’s girl! The girls also enjoyed a Spring Dinner last night - a great way to get to know each other with the year groups mixed together and some fun games lead by the House Captains. . #InternationalWomensDay #internationalwomensday2024 #InspiringWomen

A busy week for @reeds.golf. A @schoolsgolf league match v @glyn_school_official and a @swiftsgolf foursomes league match v @hellofreemens, with 10 different performance squad players in action. Thank you to @burhillgolfclub @burhilljuniors for hosting, the junior match teas always a treat! Lovely to experience the apricity of the day, providing a healthy measure of sunshine, and the strengthening whiff of spring in the air. Bring on the golf season!

First Form pupils were treated to a reading of Michael Rosen's poems, No Breathing in Class, in the Library today as part of their World Book Day celebrations. Head of Library, Ms Horton, transformed the space into a school 'prison' and the boys had such fun reading along to this captivating piece of literature from one of the country's greatest childrens authors. . #MichaelRosen #nobreathinginclass #poetryforchildren #curiosity
