Thursday 23rd October was our annual WEAR IT PINK day for all staff and Sixth Form students.
Thank you so much to all Sixth Form students and TGS staff who took part in the Wear It Pink day on the last day of term.
The Sixth Form was a sea of pink with the displays created by our fabulous Sixth Form team and Year 12 Charity Leaders, as well as all the pink outfits and accessories. Our Sixth Form students all had the opportunity to enjoy pink-themed breakfasts during tutor time and take part in the pink-themed quiz. Everyone looked fantastic and it really was great to see so many enjoying themselves as they took part in the table tennis tournament and those supporting them.
Thank you to all colleagues who also wore pink in support of the Sixth Form fundraising – we really do appreciate student and staff enthusiasm in supporting the Breast Cancer Now charity. Thank you too to our Year 12 Charity Leaders, Olivia and Laura, for your hard work behind the scenes, and of course all those who helped them with the activities.
As term finished we were delighted that we had raised over £600! This is an incredible amount of money and we would like to say a huge thank you to everyone who donated to this worthwhile charity.

“Hi, I’m Alice and I’m one of new head students for 2025/2026! I study Chemistry, Biology, Psychology and RPE at A level and I hope to go to university to study veterinary medicine in 2026. I have a passion for animals and have a growing pet collection that currently includes a snake, a tortoise and a whippet.
Outside of school, I love playing piano, guitar and singing and I also enjoy playing in our school concerts. I’m really excited to be able to represent all of you over the next year. I hope I can make a positive difference to your lives here at school! My hopes as a head student are to make you feel like your opinions are not only being heard but that action is being taken to make these ideas a reality in order to create an environment that you enjoy spending time in!”
“I’m James, one of the new Head Students at TGS for 2025/2026.
