🏊♂️ A fantastic effort from our swimmers at the ISA Midlands Gala! Out of 34 schools, St Wystan’s placed in the top 8 in half of all races.
Special congratulations to George B and Gabriel G, who both claimed multiple medals and qualified for Nationals in London next month, and to our Year 6 Boys’ Relay team for their Bronze finish!
St Wystan’s also proudly took home the trophy for Overall Total in a Large School - an incredible achievement! 👏💙

At St Wystan`s’ we love to celebrate all of our superpowers.
We have been learning and discovering about what makes people with dyslexia so awesome. It has inspired children to engage in a wide variety of activities and even to create pieces of writing all about their differences at home.

Autumn rambles are back! This week, Forms 2, 3 and 4 took a lovely walk around Repton, appreciating the autumnal weather and changing seasons. We also spent time sketching our surroundings and collecting evidence of autumn. 🍂🍄

On Tuesday we celebrated our annual St Wystan’s Day of Languages! ✨🌍
Our pupils (and parents!) went above and beyond with an incredible array of costumes representing countries from around the world. We were delighted to welcome talented linguists from Repton School, who kindly shared their language skills with us, and we’re so grateful to our parent volunteers who enriched the day by sharing stories from their home countries - and even teaching us some Japanese calligraphy!
Thank you to everyone who made the day so special. We hope our pupils have enjoyed sharing their new skills and that their enthusiasm for language-learning continues to flourish.

To mark three decades of incredible fundraising through Genes for Jeans, St Wystan’s School proudly hosted a delicious bake sale and invited pupils to wear a splash of denim alongside their uniforms.
We are passionate supporters of this fantastic charity, and let’s be honest - what better way to raise money than with cake? Thank you to everyone who baked, bought, and wore their denim with pride!

Form 3 and 4 pupils braved the wet forecast to enjoy a brilliant day of Tri Golf at Dixie Grammar. ⛳️ They showed fantastic teamwork and determination across eight fun challenges, finishing 3rd overall with an impressive 590 points! A day of skills, smiles and success – perfectly summed up by Bella: ‘This is the best day ever!’

At St Wystan’s, we love for the children to share their knowledge with other year groups. Last week, Reception learnt all about the human skeleton with a little help from Mr P and Miss Watkins and Form 4. 🦴
Form 4 loved sharing their knowledge with their younger peers and Reception certainly loved creating their own skeletons!
