On Thursday we held our Parent Session on Supporting Your Child online. The session was held in response to parent voice, with the request for more information on what parents can do to support pupils online.

Following a wave of online developments in the past few years this is a very 'hot topic' and so we were thrilled to roll out a brand new session for 2026. This one focusing on the provision of our Digital Safety curriculum, emerging online dangers, methods to support your child and finally where support can be accessed from.

The event was once again really well attended and responses from pupils have been overwhelmingly positive and grateful.

During a recent Dragon House assembly, we were delighted to welcome representatives from Guy’s Gift charity, who visited to thank our students for their fantastic fundraising efforts.

Guy’s Gift is a child bereavement support charity, providing help and guidance to children and young people who have experienced the loss of a loved one. Their work offers vital emotional support to families during incredibly difficult times.

During the assembly, students learned more about how their donations are making a real difference and supporting young people when they need it most. It was a valuable opportunity to understand the impact of their generosity and the importance of supporting others.

We are incredibly proud of Dragon House for their commitment to helping others—well done to everyone involved!

This half term, we are proud to recognise our certificate winners for demonstrating the Etone value of self-belief—showing confidence, resilience, and determination in their learning.

Congratulations to:

• Andrea, Year 7
• Rayna, Year 8
• Riley, Year 9
• Toby, Year 10

These students have shown a positive mindset and a commitment to achieving their best, setting a great example to others.

Well done to all!

A local initiative is underway to bring some seasonal cheer to children receiving care at a hospital ward this Easter. Building on the success of a festive collection effort during the Christmas period, organizers are once again inviting support—this time to gather Easter eggs and related treats for young patients.

The goal is to collect at least 100 Easter-themed items, which will be delivered directly to the children’s ward on Thursday, 26th March. The effort aims to brighten the experience of children spending the holiday in hospital, offering them a small but meaningful gesture of kindness.

Members of the community who wish to contribute are encouraged to donate Easter eggs or similar confectionery items. All donations should be dropped off at the designated office location before 9am on the day of delivery.

Support from the community would be greatly appreciated, helping to ensure as many children as possible can enjoy a special Easter surprise.

Staff at Etone College have come together in the spirit of giving to raise £107 in support of Guy’s Gift Bereavement Charity during the festive season.

In the lead-up to Christmas, Miss Haywood organised a special raffle event on behalf of Dragon house, made possible through the generous donations of staff. Contributions included a variety of thoughtful items such as chocolates, bottles of wine, and pamper gifts. These were carefully arranged into festive hampers , creating a selection of prizes that captured the excitement and goodwill of the season.

The raffle proved to be a great success, with members of the school community eager to take part while supporting a meaningful cause. The funds raised will go towards helping Guy’s Gift Bereavement Charity continue its important work supporting children and young people who are coping with loss.

This initiative not only highlighted the generosity of Etone College staff but also demonstrated the strong sense of community within the school. By working together,  staff were able to make a positive contribution and spread a little extra kindness during the Christmas period.

Dragon house is proud of everyone involved and looks forward to supporting more events to help Guys Gift in the future.

On Monday we held the next session in our Parental Workshop Support series. These workshops look to share important updates and provisions at Etone for all pupils. Working together with parents has always been a key aim in our mission to provide Progress for All.

Within the session there was an opportunity to look at the full overview of our comprehensive Personal Development Curriculum, led by Miss Stafford who supports not just within Etone but across the trust with strategic developments. From an outside in view it is stark to say just how much the Etone curriculum covers and all parents were in ore, if not surprised at the vast opportunities available for each and every one of their pupils.

We are thankful to all parents who attended and we are happy to share the session with those who were unable to make it.

A big shout out to George in Year 7 who took part in the National Cadet Division 5 Championship on Sunday. He performed amazingly with his team making it through to the final with ease and going on to take the top spot and win the Gold Medal.

This is a very prestigious win for him and allows the team to be promoted to Division 4 with Division 3 already in his sites. A major well done to this future Olympian – You’ve made us all very proud!
