A little update from @exschsports who took the L5-M5 cricket tour out to Worcester and Birmingham yesterday and today.
The match was rained off yesterday unfortunately. The pupils trained at the @bolatraining centre yesterday, went ten pin bowling at @hollywoodbowluk, and saw the T20 blast... Somerset vs Glamorgan. Today they were at @bristolactivitycentre for some Air Soft Skirmish fun. We hope the boys and girls enjoyed the trip!

Did you know, it's National Fish and Chip day! It's typically celebrated on the first Friday in June each year to celebrate the fishing industry, farmers and local chippies who make this dish a favourite across the UK. With a lot of these across Devon and Cornwall, support local.
...
Pupils may not have spotted a staff member hiding on our signage 😎 If you'd like to celebrate at home for tea, you'd better make sure you check with your child first that they haven't already helped themselves to the wonderful array of choices here today which are available every Friday. How do you eat yours? Peas, mushy peas, beans, curry sauce, tartare, ketchup, lemon.... yum!

Our MFL staff were the envy of their colleagues yesterday when their languages office was filled with the aroma of international cuisine.
From Black Forest gateaux to paneer, the judges, who included our Catering Manager, Mr Swan, had a tantalising task of choosing a winner. They've ...been announced in house meetings this morning but we'll leave you savouring these pictures a little longer before announcing the winning entry 😎 Well done to all the boys and girls who submitted an entry!

We want to say a big THANK YOU on the @unitednations Global Day of Parents and Carers to our supporters.
They are there when we cross the finish line of the next challenge we tackle, when we've inspired on stage, when we've traversed the stage to collect our scrolls at ...graduation.
They're our taxi ride 🚗, our kit washers 🎽and, importantly, our fee payers 💷 allowing us to be welcomed into our school of great character.
Thank you for being such kind, loving parents, carers and supporters. We see you 👏

Watch this space... our relics are getting a new home. two artefacts previously poised next to the Head's tower were being moved to a new home over the half term to ensure we keep history alive and protected.
Doors believed to be from the school’s original location in the medieval ...buildings of St John’s Hospital on Exeter High Street are being carefully moved and will be placed against the wall of the Exonian centre next to the statue of a Blue Boy – a pupil of the Bluecoat Free English School, also located in St John’s Hospital, which existed to educate deserving boys of limited means.
There will be a plaque arriving in due course which will lead pupils to find out more about the artefacts. Exeter School is grateful to OE John Pitts (1969–1980) for supplying information concerning the doors donated by his family.

If you're in Years 7-9 and fancy a bit of cooking on today's INSET day, or at least to start planning ahead for Thursday, the European Day of Languages, we have just the competition for you.
Our Modern Foreign Languages department have some Amazon vouchers up for grabs for ...entries of cakes or dishes representing a country of your choice. Whether you're keen on a Galette des rois, Tarta de Santiago or a classic panettone, bring your entry to the MFL staff room by lunchtime this Thursday to be in with a chance of winning!

Happy National Scone day! How do you eat yours? Keep a keen eye on the video note for our preference although we've sandwiched it together in the visual so as not to offend anyone who opts for alternatives😆
At the end of 'The Butterfly Lion', Michael Morpurgo discovers ...he's been taking tea with a ghost. We tasked our junior school poets with a little extension project to write a poem about this. Here is the poem from Bella in Upper One (Year 4) which we love.

Like Delilah and Rosalila, Benjy is preparing for the trip of a lifetime following his A Levels and is off to Peru with @projecttrust. Here, we see how hearing from alumni helped him to make the decision about whether volunteering overseas was the right choice for him. Various futures events are ...run throughout sixth form life and before to prepare pupils for the real world.
If you'd like to support Benjy raise the £6.5k he needs to get on his way, please go to his Just Giving link in the Linktree in our bio.
@exeterschool_alumni thank you for the inspiration you give to current pupils.

Yesterday, we heard from Delilah in U6 who is off to Honduras in January and today is Rosalila in L6's turn. She'll be off to Peru for 8 months the year after next. Following her mother and her brothers' experiences with @projecttrust, she's excited about the experiences it will... bring her to prepare for a course in human sciences/geography at uni later.
We love the opportunities available for pupils out there, encouraging their younger peers to think big about the differences they can make in the world and will be bringing these to you over the coming months.
Anyone wishing to support Rosalila's fundraising will be able to do so shortly through school newsletters.

Congratulations to all in our community who went up against the heat on Sunday in the @thegreatwestrun for @charityforcecancer.
George in M5 (Y10) completed the 10k in just 45 mins 33 secs, running the race on behalf of @petesdragonscharity. He has raised nearly £1k! The charity have said... that "the money will most certainly go a long way in supporting others that find themselves in such a devastating and heart-breaking situation."
Mr Larkham, our physics teacher, put Newton's Laws of Motion to the test finishing the half marathon 7th overall (1st place for his men's age group category) in a time of 1hr 15m and 29 secs.
Mr Harknett said he had to dig deep due to the heat and gives a huge shout out to the @@dsfireupdates on Union Road for spraying the runners down with the fire hose! The support from the school community has really helped smash his fundraising goals with over £400 going to @charityforcecancer.
Well done to all as we are still waiting to hear on some enjoying a rest now that it's half term!
