On Tuesday 7 November, Highsted held its annual Tea Party, celebrating a successful transition for Year 7 students from primary to secondary school and raising money for the Wisdom Hospice charity. Year 7 students invited guests including: their primary school head teachers and new members of teaching staff at Highsted.
All of the students had worked incredibly hard to prepare for this event by creating hand written invitations for the guests, designing table decorations and choosing food and drink to be served. During the evening guests were able to look at some of the impressive work Year 7 had completed in their first term at Highsted including work from English and Science.
Two students gave a moving speech about the Wisdom Hospice and sold gifts to raise money for this worthy charity. Later, all the students performed ‘Do-Re-Mi’ from ‘The Sound of Music’ in a beautiful two part harmony, including two solos sung by Evie Fone and Vanessa Adenowo. It was a fantastic evening and the students were truly a credit to the school.
