Some of the classrooms here have jars for kindness notes; some have marbles being collected together as reward tokens and when the jar is full the pupils can have a class party or a special treat; some have a jar like this one in junior school which reminds pupils to work quietly. It's a ...great reminder to act with kindness and integrity and to be mindful of those around us. It certainly is quiet here at the weekend - especially after the disco held here last night! Now I need to say goodbye to the quiet critters in here!

On Tuesday, all the junior school pupils and staff went on their History Expedition Day. ✨
Form One visited the Royal Albert Memorial Museum to learn about Ancient Egypt, and the museum included a variety of engaging activities for pupils, including mummification and handling ancient ...objects.
Upper One returned to Tiverton Museum to study the Anglo-Saxons, specifically their impact on Devon. They enjoyed exploring the museum, completing different activities and many pupils (and staff too!) enjoyed having their photo taken in a warrior’s helmet!
Lower Two again returned this year to Buckland Abbey. This was to explore the dissolution of the monasteries and discover the home of Sir Francis Drake. When they arrived, they were greeted with a surprise: the full abbey had been decorated for the best time of year, bringing tonnes of Christmas spirit to the classes. 🎄
Upper Two returned to Coldharbour Mill for a drama experience of what it was like to work in a Victorian mill. This year, they also learnt about the history of weaving and were able to give it a go themselves, creating some wonderful mementos of the day.
They all had a wonderful time, learning lots and promoting engaging, relevant and interesting history across the school. 🥳🌲

Thank you to Mr Ferreira-Castro, a parent and dentist who came to talk about healthy teeth yesterday. Our Upper One pupils learnt such a lot, including little fun facts about teeth. They were delighted with their gifts of mini toothpastes as well. 😀🪥

Healthy, lots of choice... and celebrating different events throughout the year. The pupils even had a mass sushi-rolling lesson in the dining hall recently - great fun! We're looking forward to our Christmas lunch next week!

Time to find that Christmas jumper or Christmas hat. On Wednesday 13 December, pupils in both the junior and senior schools are invited to wear a Christmas jumper or Christmas hat, along their normal school uniform. To take part, we suggest a minimum donation of £2.
The money raised will ...contribute to the work of the UNICEF and the community service famous Christmas tea party, where we invite over 100 older residents from the community to enjoy some much-needed festive cheer: afternoon tea, carols and the like.

The Junior School has been enjoying a Christmas book each day in December and today the librarians created paperchain book characters to hang on their doors. 🎄

Today I'm thinking about what I want to be when I grow up. Sure, it's fun making things in Santa's workshop and getting to explore once a year, but now I'm seeing all the amazing opportunities available in education. The alumni team at Exeter School stay in touch with lots of ...Exonians and keep up to date with what they are doing now. They have a Facebook page called 'Exeter School Alumni' (follow it now!) and publish an annual magazine called the 1633 to keep everyone connected. It's inspiring for the current pupils to hear from alumni with stories of how they have applied their learning in the real world after leaving school.
