Sixth Form Induction

St. Ignatius Sixth Form recently concluded its highly successful Induction Day, marking the beginning of an exciting chapter in the students' educational journey. The event spread over two days, was filled with immersive experiences, interactive classes, and opportunities to bond with the year group.                   On the first day, the students dived right into the college experience. They had a blast attending interactive classes and getting a sneak peek into what their academic journey at St Ignatius would be like. The day ended on a high note with an inspiring speech from our guest speaker, Reuben Arthur, who left us all motivated and ready to conquer the world.   The second day was all about exploring different subjects and enrichment classes. The students got to see what their future classes would look like at St Ignatius and had the freedom to choose from a wide variety of enrichment classes. It was an opportunity for them to discover new interests and broaden their horizons. We want to express our sincere gratitude to everyone who joined us for this fantastic event. None of it would have been possible without the hard work and dedication of our faculty. To the incoming Sixth Form students, thank you for being a part of this unforgettable experience. We're thrilled to have you join our St Ignatius family, and we can't wait to see all the amazing things you'll achieve during your time with us.

Y12 Royal Court of Justice Trip

Our Year 12 students interested in studying Law at university had an extraordinary opportunity yesterday. They met with King’s Counsel barristers, senior barristers, and even a High Court Judge. It was an unforgettable experience to be in the company of such accomplished leaders in the world of law. The day included visits to the renowned Royal Courts of Justice, Blackstone Chambers, and Middle Temple, one of the four Inns of Court. Our students were captivated and inspired by the legal professionals they met and the prestigious institutions they explored. They were even challenged to play out a court case on their own! This unique experience has undoubtedly left a lasting impression on our students, who are now more motivated than ever to pursue their legal aspirations. We are immensely grateful to all the professionals who made this day possible.
