Chatting with Channing
Last Thursday, our Year 11 GCSE Music students shone in their first concert of the year! From Handel to Hamilton, each performer delivered confident, expressive solos showcasing their hard work and musical flair. We would like to thank and congratulate all our Year 11 students for performing so brilliantly!
Leila, Ellie and Sophie had a fascinating time at the Languages Taster Day yesterday run by Girton College, University of Cambridge. They explored French, German, Spanish, Italian and more.
The Junior School have loved taking part in a wide range of clubs before, during and after the school day, from Science and Mariachi Band to Cross Stitch, Mindfulness Colouring, Cricket, Gardening and even Virtual Reality! We can’t wait to keep learning, exploring and having fun after half-term!
Year 2 pupils are decorating their Yayoi Kusama inspired pumpkins in her signature spotty style!
In our latest staff blog, Headmistress, Mrs Lindsey Hughes, explores The Learning Pit — a powerful concept that shows what real learning feels like.
At Channing, we believe that the moments of confusion, frustration and challenge are not setbacks - they’re the most productive parts of the learning journey. As Mrs Hughes explains:
“That dip, or struggle, is not a sign of failure; it’s the most productive part of the learning process.”
