Welcome from our Head Boy and Head Girl 2025-2026 Hamzah and Hayaa are supported by a fabulous team of prefects (Saad, Huma and Safiyah) who all hold additional responsibilities and duties through the school day.
The prefect team were chosen by their class teachers in Year 5 for being always children who always treat others with respect and dignity, always work hard, are always great role models to other children, can always be relied upon and always make the most of school life. You can spot them around school with their smart blazers.
