The whole school gathered in the Chapel on the morning of Friday 9 September to mark the passing of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.

Reverend Vindra reflected on her long and inspirational life of selfless service, and the importance of her Christian faith. There were prayers and readings from the scriptures, including extracts from Psalm 23 read by Mrs Cameron.

The Chapel remains available to pupils and staff for moments of quiet contemplation throughout the period of mourning, and the school has opened a book of condolence. You may also wish to send a message to the Royal Family via the official online Book of Condolence.
