Last half term, the Arthur Players performed several monologues in a showcase celebrating the voices of women. From tales of triumph to moments of vulnerability, nine girls shared their characters` truths in an intimate performance setting. As always, the Drama department was extremely proud of their emphatic performances! 🎭💃♀️
Look at these beautiful photos from today`s brilliant trip with Year 5 to Hampton Court Palace. After a rainy weekend, the weather was on our side and we got to explore both the Palace and Gardens, teaching us lots about the Tudors, which is Year 5`s current History topic.
We enjoyed a fantastic workshop in the Tudor kitchens, followed by an exploration of Henry VIII`s apartments and the chapel. We finished the day with much laughter and excitement, whilst running around the Palace Garden`s maze! 🏰👑
LIVE: THE QG STATE OPENING OF PARLIAMENT 👑
This week we had a variety of events throughout the school including a Re-enactment of the State Opening of Parliament by the Junior School to recognise Parliament Week.
Our Head Girl of the Junior School, Tatiana, was the King.
Miss Wallace became Queen Wallace and Sabina from our Junior School Head Girl Team adopted the role of Black Rod. Elizabeth House were the House of Lords, and Victoria House became the House of Commons.
With the House of Lords present, King Tatiana and Queen Wallace processed down the aisle to take up their seats at the front. The House of Commons waited to be admitted by Black Rod to the hall.
Sabina – as Black Rod – processed down the hall. She knocked on the door three times and The House of Commons were admitted.
King Tatiana will gave her regal speech and then the King and Queen left the hall and all work was resumed.
A big thank you to Mrs Makhlouf for planning this creative learning opportunity for us to find out more about our parliamentary system, during Parliament Week.
It`s that time of year again. Our amazing QG Christmas Fair will be back on 30 November 2024. Put on and organised by our incredible PTA team, we know it`s going to be full of festive fun.
This year, we have set a fundraising target of £30,000 for the Queen`s Gate Foundation.
The Fair will bring community and festive spirit, with children’s activities, Santa’s Grotto, wonderful shopping, and food and champagne bars. And, of course, our ever popular raffle.
We will be cashless this year, using card readers for purchases and tokens in the Games Rooms and on certain stalls. Tokens will be on sale both before and during the Fair.
