This phenomenal cohort wrapped up their journey by pulling in a staggering total of USD16bn in global scholarships!Ìý

It’s safe to say that those long nights of Assessments, CAS, and Extended Essays paid off big time. This multi-million dollar milestone proves that Greensprings students don’t just graduate; they exit standard-style, ready to take over the world.

Huge congratulations to the entire Class of 2026; show the world what you’re made of!Ìý

September seems just like yesterday, students stepping into new classrooms carrying uncertainty about the new session, teachers wondering how best to support them.Ìý

As the weeks went by, challenges emerged, academic struggles surfaced, and we had to dig deep wearing various thinking hats, trying new strategies and leaning into professional development to find better ways forward.

By June, the results of that collective effort were clear. The progress is measurable and visible. Students who initially struggled have developed stronger foundational skills and greater independence. Similarly, the teachers who engaged in targeted training have refined their instructional methods, leading to more effective daily lessons.

As this session concludes, we reflect on a period defined by hard work and distinct milestones. This chapter closes on a strong note, with everyone having demonstrably moved forward.

Until the next session

This year asked more than we expected

and gave back more than we knew to want.

A grade, a friendship, a version of ourselves

We hadn’t met in September.

We learned that failure has a short memory

If you refuse to give it the last word.

The teacher who pushed hardest

was usually the one who saw something first.

That kindness, offered quietly, lands harder than you think.

Ìý

Then came exams. The silence of the hall,

clocks loud as heartbeats, pens moving like silent prayers.

Weeks of revision notes and convincing yourself you knew enough.

You did. Mostly.

Ìý

Prize-giving day is still coming.

Names will be called.

Stages crossed.

The work will become something you can hold,

something to show for the long months of it.

Ìý

And the Year 11s, they stand a little more straight,Ìý

knowing this is the last time the school will call them students.

Knowing the next thing has no uniform.

No bell to follow and no one to take the register.

Ìý

Just the open door and the particular fear

that lives right next to excitement,

the kind you feel when something real is starting.

Ìý

The door is still open.

That’s enough.

The post Fun Zone – The Unofficial Parent of the Year Awards appeared first on Greensprings School.

As the school year comes to a close, I find myself reflecting on the many families I had the privilege of meeting in the School Office. Beyond forms and »Æ¹Ïapps processes, there were real stories, hopes, and dreams.

One of the highlights of the year was meeting families who were eager to join the Greensprings community. Some parents were determined to secure a place for their children, even when spaces were no longer available. Others were searching for an inclusive and supportive learning environment where their children could feel accepted, valued, and empowered to thrive.

These conversations reminded me that every application represents a family’s aspirations and that every enquiry is more than a request for »Æ¹Ïapp; it is a family placing their trust in us. It was also a joy to welcome new families, celebrate the achievements of our students, and bid farewell to the graduating class of 2025/2026. This year taught me patience, empathy, and the importance of building meaningful relationships while ensuring that every family feels seen, heard, and valued.

Dressed in English Royal Elegance, our mothers brought their queenly glow, and stunning fascinators to a morning dedicated to honoring their impact. The celebration was more than just a social gathering; it was a space for community expression, filled with laughter, good vibes, and heartfelt tributes.

By celebrating the women who lead our families with such poise, we show our students that true excellence is found in service and consistency. It was a day for our mothers to be seen, spoiled, and celebrated; because behind every confident student voice is a phenomenal woman who first taught them how to speak their truth.

As highlighted by Mrs. Anuoluwapo Adeyemi, early talent development builds permanent cognitive frameworks, sharpens emotional intelligence, and instills a bedrock of discipline. This brilliance was the result of months of rigorous preparation, with students balancing demanding academic schedules with unrelenting rehearsals.

Music instructors Mr. Adewale Kuye and the Elementary Music team noted that the process taught vital life lessons in accountability and teamwork. Through this intensive journey, our students have not only mastered their instruments but have ignited skills that empower them for lifelong excellence. Their journey proves that an orchestra only sounds whole when every section supports the other.

During our ManUp celebration at the Anthony Campus, we didn’t just listen to stories of resilience; we lived them. A group of six of our fellow students stepped up for a friendly but intense game of chess against none other than Tunde Onakoya.

Watching our peers face a visionary leader was a masterclass in excellence and expression. It wasn’t just about the moves they made on the board; it was about the confidence in their moves and the strategic maturity they showed under pressure. They proved that when students are given a platform, they don’t just participate, they get to lead.

This moment reminded us all that the power of a student’s voice isn’t just found in a speech, but also in the quiet discipline of a chess match and the boldness to challenge greatness. Whether in the class, on the pitch or across a chessboard, we are finding our voices and defining what it means to be the leaders of tomorrow.

Whether leaning in to carefully guide a peer through a complex math problem or stepping up to direct a group task, these students are proving that leadership isn’t about a title; it is an active choice.

By taking charge of their own learning pathways, they are practicing the essential social-emotional skills of empathy, accountability, and adaptive communication. We are incredibly proud to watch them confidently express their ideas, challenge one another respectfully, and build a creative, student-led community every single day.

Keep shining, future leaders!
