The Junior Production tonight, The Canterbury Tales #fabels #morals #innuendo #ChaucerIsntDead An absolutely fabulous performance from over 50 performers from Years 7 to 10, reworking The Pardoner's Tale, The Nun's Priest's Tale, The Knight's Tale, The Wife of Bath's Tale and The Miller's Tale. A small number of tickets still available for tomorrow night (Fri 31st).

It’s lights out and away we go! Over the past term our engineering club have been working hard on their remote control cars all leading up the inaugural Hemel Hempstead School Grand Prix! The grand prize was a trip to visit Aston Martin! Despite a 5 second penalty for what we will call an enthusiastic shove over the bridge Max Stanley Henry & Jack won overall with a time of 47 seconds. Isla Poppy & Lauren did an amazing job winning the best design as judged by Mr Hassell. We can’t wait to see what an amazing time you have and well done to every student who got involved. #aspire #thehhex #astonmartin #futureengineers

Congratulations Harshith, narrowly beaten in the Plate Final. A great performance for a Year 7; one to watch!
