Celebrating our amazing student tour guides
We are thrilled to celebrate the fantastic work of our student tour guides who not only volunteered in large numbers for our Open Evening but continue to do an outstanding job supporting our Open Mornings this week. The overwhelming number of students who offered their time was fantastic, but what has been even more remarkable is the manner in which they have carried out their responsibilities.
Prospective families have been full of praise for the students' attitudes, maturity, politeness, and confidence, describing them as a real credit to our school community. We are so proud of how they have represented the School, and they truly embody the values we aim to instil in all our students.
We encourage all parents to support their son or daughter in taking up similar opportunities and positions of responsibility within the School. Whether it be a leadership role or getting involved in student voice to shape the future of King Alfred’s, these experiences are invaluable.

Also, a huge thank you to students who have helped out at Open Evening, who attended the STEM careers events and who have recently attended the History and Geography trips. It is always great to hear positive feedback about Year 11 - they should be very proud!
