The Big Sleep

18th September 2026

On Friday 18th September, we invited all of our Yr 7s to take part in our first ever sleep over.

The concept was simple – a free event open to everyone with the aim to develop friendships, build friendships and ultimately have fun in school like never before.

Students turned classrooms into dorms, sat together and ate food, took part in activities throughout the evening and attempted to become the ultimate hide and seek champion!

Gone were the normal rules of walking in corridors, music was playing across school and students got to explore school like they never will again; and teddies were actively encouraged!

Building a strong school community is one of our priorities and what better way than through the power of play!

The Big Sleep was a huge success!!

With such positive feedback from both students and parents this will be back every September for our new Yr7s!

A huge thank you to all staff who gave up their Friday night (and their sleep) to make this such a brilliant evening!

Welcome to your new school Year 7…

More than a School. A community. A journey. A Future.
