LATEST NEWS 24 Nov Senior High Notes 24th November 2021 Another busy week at Derby High has concluded with the much anticipated return of House Drama. Following a year’s break due to covid, it has been brilliant to be able to bring back this wonderful DHS tradition. House competitions, whether they be sport, debating, drama or music, always stir up great passion, camaraderie and excitement. In line with our covid safe measures, performances were live-streamed into form rooms this afternoon for all students to watch together - and I have been fortunate to be able to see it at home, whilst I am isolating with Covid. It has been a fabulous afternoon, with great performances and teamwork both on and off stage.

Year 5 enjoyed National Space Day yesterday and on Monday we welcomed nine visiting schools for an Upper Juniors’ netball festival. It is fantastic to see our outdoor Christmas tree return to the Head’s Lawn. Christmas preparations are in full swing with lots of rehearsals and recordings for our Christingle, Christmas productions and Carol Service. We look forward to sharing these performances with you in the coming weeks. I wish you a restful, extended weekend. The exeat gives everyone the opportunity to recharge batteries ready for the final weeks of the term.
