Reed's In The News

Our Head Chef, Carl, has kindly made time in his busy schedule this term to run 'Masterchef' style cooking sessions for the Lower Sixth in their FutureYou lessons. From spicy meatballs to sweet chilli chicken, his recipes have gone down a treat! All part of our extensive programme to Prepare our Pupils for the Future. . #cookinglesson #cookeryclasses #FutureYou #independence

Celebrations to mark the 80th anniversary of VE Day have been in full flow here today. It started with a whole School Assembly devoted to educating pupils on the significance of VE day and why it is so important to mark this occasion. The highlight was undoubtedly a film of Old Reedonian, 93-year-old Bill Collins, recounting his own memories of WWII and VE Day in particular when he was only 13 years old. The library was converted into a VE Day ‘hub’ for pupils to immerse themselves in WWII themed activities - these included sending messages by Morse code on devices made during DT lessons and cracking German military codes using a virtual enigma machine. Younger pupils enjoyed making models of tanks in wood, card and paper origami and the exhibition of wartime food was very popular! . #veday80thanniversary #VEDay @reedsalumni @lib_rarycat

Apparently it's the hottest start to May ever today! So we opened up the outdoor Summer Library to ensure that pupils can read, revise and play chess in the fresh air and enjoy the beautiful surroundings we are so lucky to have at Reed's. Aled, First Form, commented "I really love the vibe of the outdoor library and henceforth it will be called the VIBRARY!" Huge thanks to our amazing Gardening team - Will, Kim & Vicky - for all their hard work! 🌱🌳🥀🌸🌼🪻🌷 . #library #outdoorlibrary #beautifulgardens #summervibes @lib_rarycat @1000libraries

First Form Geographers marched into the local woods this week beaming with excitement to be spending the day outside in such glorious sunshine! It started with a magnificent lecture from a local expert on the Oxshott Heath ecosystem, Mr Clapp (jnr), who imparted his knowledge on geology, wildlife and history. The boys learnt how to use quadrats and how to identify species along a transect to determine if management of the ecosystem has been successful. The second half of the day included river studies where excitement was high when Mr Douthwaite introduced them to the high tech CRAD'S (Calibrated River Acceleration Devices) that they would be using to measure river velocity. The opportunity to stand in the river in wellies carrying out fieldwork studies was the highlight of the day though! . #geography #ecosystem #riverstudies
