NEWSLETTER – 18 December 2025
Dear Parents and Guardians,
Welcome to the final edition of the newsletter for 2025. The headline of headlines must be the School of Rock. It was an exceptional production and all the more impressive for the relatively young cast who put on a near-professional level performance. Our Senior Council did us proud introducing some fresh ideas for the Snow Ball and organising a really successful evening last Friday. That was followed on Saturday by a fun Christmas celebration for the sailors down at Hodge Howe and the traditional carol service at Jesus Church on Sunday for the boarders. The pupils played, read and sang beautifully and we were treated to a surprise turn by Ms Burtt Jones and Miss Thexton singing a duet. As we close with our service at Cartmel on Thursday, I hope that many of you will be able to come and share with us this lovely occasion in such an historic setting.
Kind regards,
Frank Thompson
Head of Windermere School
