Leaver's assembly for the Class of 2026. A mixture of emotions as our amazing Year 11 students have their last assembly at Cove School. As they bring their formal education to an end and leave us in a few weeks time ready for whatever the future brings, we wish them all the very best. They have grown up into fine young men and women ready to make a difference in the world. We will miss them, please keep in touch and let us know how life works out!

Today is World Bee Day, and what better way to celebrate than by sharing this incredible creation by one of our talented Year 7 students! 🐝✨ Our lovely Lila in Year 7 has created the most amazing extended project outcome. Year 7 have been set extended projects as homework tasks in Art and had the task of creating a 3D bug made out of any material of their choice. It’s great to see such good cross collaboration with other subjects, and this one looks very tasty! Well done, Lila, on such an incredible piece of work. We are so proud of you! 👏 You can see more of our students’ artwork on our Art Instagram page: https://www.instagram.com/cove_artdept/

Well done to our Year 10 Drama GCSE students! This week they completed their Devising Mock Performance which goes towards 30% of their course. Parents were invited to come and watch their first run through and were delighted to see what their children have been working towards over the last few months. We have a month to go until the final assessment, and this experience has really helped our students understand what needs polishing and fine tuning for the big day!

From today students can wear summer uniform! This means that students can wear their light blue school polo shirts (proudly representing their correct house) instead of their white shirts and ties if they wish. A blazer must be worn over the top and not a jumper or hoodie. However, they can remove their blazer when it is particularly warm and put them in their bags. The only two options are: - Normal uniform - white shirt, tie and blazer. (Please note - jumpers are not a replacement for blazers!). - Blue polo shirt and blazer. (Year 11 who have the black polo shirts can obviously continue to wear these). All students must continue to wear black shoes, black trousers, or school skirt. If a student owns and wishes to wear school shorts from Brenda’s this is allowed.

This week we took 2 groups of year 9 students to visit 'Audley Woods Hotel' and 'Sherfield Oaks Golf Club' in Basingstoke. These trips gave students first hand experience of the workplace focusing on the Hospitality and Sport workplace sectors. Students took part in activities relating to various job roles at both locations and also had in depth behind the scenes tours of the hotel and club grounds. Students were able to speak to employees to gain an insight into the day to day running of a 4 star hotel and a Golf Club. Thank you to James at Audley Woods and Luke (Cove School alumni) at Sherfield Oaks for generously hosting Cove School!
