What a day! We celebrated our annual Sports Day in true Malling School style, with energy, enthusiasm, and excellence throughout! Our students were incredible, showing teamwork, resilience, and all the values that define The Malling School Way. It was a brilliant way to round off a fantastic year. A huge congratulations to everyone who took part, you did us proud! Thank you to all the staff and supporters who made the day such a success. We'll see you tomorrow for the final day of the academic year!

A visit from Laddingford Primary School Year 5 and 6 students from Laddingford Primary School joined us on the lake last week to complete water sports activities as well as Geography and Science Field Work, focusing on the local environment surrounding the lake. It was a hugely successful and enjoyable day where many students had the opportunity to participate in kayaking for the first time. Students learnt how to practise their forward and backward paddling, as well as learning how to use a sweep stroke to change direction. When not kayaking, students were using the nature boards located around the lake to complete topical challenges. All students fully participated and enjoyed the day. We'd also like to say thank you to some of our amazing Year 9 students who supported the younger students throughout the day and participated in the sessions - Grace Marsh, Maya Severn, Eli Rukundo, Tyler Johnson, and Jake Harrison.

Year 8 Careers Event During the summer term, Year 8 students took part in an exciting new careers event, piloted for the first time this year. The event was designed to highlight the importance of lifelong learning and adaptability in a world of work that is changing so rapidly. Nine inspiring visitors from a wide range of professions kicked off the session, bringing their careers to life with fascinating stories and props, including a model of a spine, a brain, a microphone transmitter, and even a prison officer's kit belt. The fast-paced format kept everyone involved and energised, and the diversity of careers represented meant that every student found something to relate to or be inspired by. We are proud to say that feedback from students, staff, and visitors was overwhelmingly positive. We'd like to thank our visitors for generously giving their time.

Sports Presentation Evening 2025 Sports Awards 2025 was another amazing night at The Malling School. This year has seen some incredible achievements made from our students, and we would like to say a big thank you to all our parents and students who attended the evening. We were able to celebrate the fantastic skill and talent they all show within Football, Netball, Athletics, Rounders, Rugby, Cheerleading, and much more. The PE department looks forward to next year and to seeing what amazing things they can achieve through sport.

Sixth Form Paris Trip From Tuesday 24th to Friday 27th June, we had the absolute pleasure of taking our wonderful Year 13 students on a truly memorable trip to Paris, as a special way to mark the end of their incredible seven-year journey at The Malling School. The days were filled with unforgettable experiences, including visits to iconic landmarks such as the Eiffel Tower, Stade de France, Notre Dame, Montparnasse Tower, Sacré-Cœur, and a relaxing cruise along the River Seine. Students also had time to explore the beautiful city at their own pace and enjoy some of the local cuisine. What made the trip truly special, though, was the group of young people we were fortunate enough to share it with. Each and every student represented The Malling School with pride, maturity, and kindness. Their behaviour was exemplary throughout, and they received compliments everywhere we went. We are immensely proud of them, not just as students, but as the thoughtful, responsible, and confident young adults they have become. It was a joy to see them celebrate this important milestone together, and we are so grateful for the memories we shared. We hope to see them all again soon and wish them every success as they take their next steps.

Sixth Form Prom 2025 On Thursday 19th of June, we were thrilled to celebrate our incredible Y13 students at our Sixth Form Prom! It was an unforgettable evening filled with laughter, dancing, and memories that will last a lifetime. We are so proud of our Y13 students and of all they have achieved, and we look forward to seeing the amazing things they'll accomplish in the future. Well done to everyone involvedyou truly made the night special!

Congratulations to this inspirational student! Last weekend, Theo Dowsett in year 9 completed the London to Brighton cycle ride of 54 miles and raised over £1000 for the Aplastic Anaemia Trust. We cannot express how proud we are of Theo. True to the amazing person he is, he was desperate to give something back and raise money for a charity that had only recently supported him!

Gospel Touch Performance On Saturday evening, Miss Cox, Mrs Bush, and The Malling School Choir joined the Gospel Touch Choir at Mote Park Leisure Centre for an evening of music, dance, and performance. The students, from all year groups, had an amazing time and wholeheartedly took part with joy, confidence, and enthusiasm. They were truly inspired by Gospel Touch and thoroughly enjoyed performing before an audience and with a live band. Thank you to Gospel Touch for a fantastic evening. The students loved every minute of it!

The Malling School are excited to share with you that the tickets for this year's production are now on sale!
