🥋 More Judo success! 🥋 On Saturday, Terianne proudly represented Caterham High School at the Northern Home Counties British Judo Schools Qualifier. Despite being the lowest graded competitor in her group, she showed incredible skill and determination, taking on higher graded and more experienced opponents. After an intense semi-final bout, Terianne narrowly missed out on a place in the final - but her perseverance paid off! She earned a well deserved bronze medal and secured her spot in the National Finals this March. We are so proud of you, Terianne—what an amazing achievement! 👏💪

🥋 Judo Highlights of the Week! 🥋 This week was packed with incredible moments: ✅ The Primary Judo Event brought energy, teamwork and smiles all around! ✅ The Adaptive Judo Squad had the amazing opportunity to meet Olympic medalist Chelsie Giles! ✅ CHS GCSE students also spent time with Chelsie, discussing what life is like as a full-time athlete, the impact of social media and the challenges of staying focused – all topics they’re currently exploring in lessons. A huge thank you to Chelsie for inspiring our students and showing the power of resilience and dedication!

🎭 An Unforgettable Night at the Victoria Palace Theatre! 🎭 On 18th November, 30 Caterham students experienced the electrifying energy of Hamilton at the iconic Victoria Palace Theatre. Thanks to the incredible initiative by Delfont Macintosh Theatre Group, our students enjoyed the best seats in the house and a programme – all for just £10! The evening was made even more special by Anthony Papamichael, an ex-Caterham drama student and now Company Manager for Hamilton, who hosted an inspiring Q&A session after the show. For many, this was their first West End experience, and the combination of a diverse cast, groundbreaking hip-hop soundtrack and powerful storytelling left a lasting impression. Students also took part in post show discussions, enriching their learning and supporting their GCSE studies. As the curtain fell, the echoes of Hamilton reminded us of the transformative power of theatre and the arts. ✨ Huge thanks to everyone who made this possible!
