Wishing our 3 sixth form teams heading out to South Africa and Lesotho for their expedition, a truly wonderful time.

The teams have landed in South Africa. Each team is now off to complete a project, a trek and explore the stunning landscapes.

Congratulations to Franklin House who retain the House Cup! Austen, Darwin and Shakespeare Houses will come back fighting in September, I have no doubt, to try to prevent a Franklin hattrick next year!

What a year! Wishing everyone in the CGS community a restful and enjoyable summer break. We look forward to welcoming everyone back in September.

Team 3 are in Khsoto- enjoying some Pictionary and dinner. Team 1 and 3 have arrived at their first destinations too.

As the 2024/25 academic year comes to a close, we look back on what has been a fantastic year for PE and Sport at CGS. A total of 654 students have taken part in competitive fixtures! We wish you all a wonderful summer. CGS PE Team

Team 3 have done a short hike, before retuning for tea and cake, and witnessing an incredible storm, as well as this rainbow. This was followed by learning to make Lesotho bread

A little bit of a soggy start for Team 2 but all was forgotten when they had an amazing guest visit them for breakfast! Can you spot it in the second picture?

Some of the pictures from Team 2’s adventures!

Year 6 ➡️ 7 Summer camp. Today was house day. All students took part in Art, Drama, Cricket, Basketball, Football, Netball and Softball competitions. It was great to see so many students representing their houses with pride and engaging in the house spirit.
