But for now... SUMMER HOLIDAYS!
You may be aware there is a small (global) IT issue that means we can't send Year 10 reports and we can't even email. We tried going on @SkyNews but they're not even broadcasting due to the same problems.
So we are... waiting with curiosity, which is one of our school values.
So, on an average of about 4 hours sleep each, we're finally at the airport and in surprisingly good spirits - it's been a looooong weekend, but an absolutely 'adventurous', 'ambitious' 'eventful' and 'toasty' one!!! @@yateleyschool, @MFL_yateley

🎉 Thrilled to welcome our future Year 7 students for their taster day! They experienced a fantastic array of lessons, from science experiments to creative arts. Looking forward to seeing these bright young minds join us in September! 🌟📚 #FutureYear7 #ExcitedForSeptember
Lovely to spend time with my year 11 English class without asking them to do 'silent writing' for once!! Such a beautiful bunch of students. I'll miss you all! 💖@yateleyschool
@Nelson_PK @yateleyschool @durham_uni So very deserved, Sam! I am so proud of you. Very well done. You have a great career ahead of you and are such a lovely person too! Take care, Miss Self
Such phenomenal news about Sam - he’s one of those kids (read: fully fledged adults) that we at Yateley School will never forget.
Can’t wait to see how life develops for you now Sam!! We hope to hear more and more about your future successes #JustTheStart
To the @yateleyschool staff that helped Sam Keys to his GCSEs and A levels, thank you. He’s learned this afternoon that he’s earned a 1st class degree in Physics at @durham_uni
It would be fair to say we are super-excited for this one... let the pictures speak for themselves and all of us from @graphics_ys will look forward to seeing you soon!
Intense french lessons at the boulangerie in France @yateleyschool
Awesome ride at bagatelle theme park @yateleyschool
Day 1 in France, tunnel, war cemetery, le Touquet for shopping and ice cream, then hotel, park and early to bed. Fab lot so far @yateleyschool
😈👿 Launching our big art competition! 😈👿
This year the theme is "purple" and the deadline is 16 June for submission to our Art department.
The winner also gets a £30 Amazon voucher which they can spend on non-purple things. Go on... give it a shot!
A successful day for 4 of our students competing at the Hampshire Multi Events Championships yesterday. In the U15 boys, Jamie came 8th and Josh came 5th. In the U17 girls, Rosie came 4th and in the U17 boys, Freddie won the event and became county champion! Well done to all!
Good luck to our amazing year 13s today on their first A level paper! Mr Tidd and I have never marked so many past papers! Go smash it 🌎☀️ we are so proud of you! @yateleyschool
Year 8 have enjoyed making their pop up hurricanes in their Geography lessons this week - now to annotate and add formation! Well done year 8 🌀 🌍
And so it begins… 2 exams down and a lot still to go!!! Well done to our RS and Drama students 😎
Shout out from us too and well done Kai and Ash @yateleyschool 👏👏
@poetrybyheart @yateleyschool 🎉 Incredible! Ash has made the Grand Finale! Well deserved - so proud! Kai did amazingly well, too, and will be there at The Globe on 1st July to support her all the way. @yateleyschool @poetrybyheart
If students miss an exam, they won’t be able to sit it on a different day or receive any marks.
Make sure they know the consequences, check their exam timetable and are prepared with our student guide:

@yateleyschool GCSE week ahead. What a super document. The parents new bible for the next 6 weeks !! Huge Kudos and thanks to all who put such hard work into it!
A big thank you to our staff who supervised the trip as well; taking time out of their busy days to not teach and go and eat lots of chocolate instead.
#selfless
Yateley students ventured into the chocolatey depths of Cadbury World yesterday as part of their Geography unit on Globalisation! We think they're planning a 'sweet' takeover.
Future careers as chocolate tasters? 🤔
Sign me up...

The rainbows couldn’t even be bothered today.
Happy Easter everyone, from all of us at Yateley School…

An amazing day out @The_Globe for our year 11s - "that was so much more fun than reading it in class, Miss!" 👏 Enjoying Shakespeare exactly how it was intended! Some very happy @yateleyschool year 11s for an incredible performance of Romeo & Juliet.
The boys are all seated and ready for the women's All Star game 🏀
🏀British Basketball All Stars Game!🏀
We have just departed school with 15 boys from the school basketball teams to watch the All Stars game at the Copper Box Arena! Updates for the day will be posted here.
The Y7 ⚽ team played their last game of the year v @WeydonPE today, coming back from 2 goals down to win 3-2! Goals were scored by Ben-James and 2 by POM Seb!
Mystified by their continued wetness, here we capture our students’ horror as they google the word “foliage” ☔️
@yateleyschool I bet it’s ‘unchained’ (Gareth Gates.. Unchained melody? 🎵…. Ok ok. I’ll get my coat 🤣🤣).
It was at this point, with over 80 years of combined experience running schools, they settled on the name Gareth.
🚨 Opportunity Alert! Join Yateley School's Teaching Team 🚨
A decade ago, I made the best career decision of my life by joining Yateley School... perhaps you should do the same?
As a warm, welcoming and inclusive school, we are pleased to announce that our gates are... shut.
That's right! From 8.45am-3.10pm our school gates will be fully secured, meaning entrance only via reception or using our dedicated card readers. More here:
What one word would you use to describe women?
Well we got asking our staff and students today to celebrate International Women's Day 2024...
#InternationalWomensDay #BetterThanMe
Very disappointed that our receptionists felt it was appropriate to make me this poster, which allows me to move the wine closer to the end of term.
I say disappointed… but truth be told, I’ve been using it all week and it has really helped! 😂
A fantastic evening at the Regional Final of the MACE Debate Competition where our boys @YateleySchool gave it everything they could on the topic of Euthanasia. So proud. Congrats to @stcatsbramley for winning and thanks to @theESU for such an opportunity for our youngsters.
When one of our students pointed it out, we had to at least check the resemblance...
