Alumnus Nye Williams-Renouf (at SPF 2009-2011) returns to school for Inspire & Guide

Stephen Perse staff and students paid tribute to Stephen Hawking at his memorial service in Westminster Abbey last week - here, 6th Form student Alex L describes this memorable experience in his own words.

Imogen, Millie and Larkin all enjoy victory on the Thames alongside their fellow Cambridge rowers. So what inspired them to row?

With three alumni on the Cambridge University Women's Boat Club (CUWBC) squad for 2018, our Junior School pupils took inspiration from a visit to their Goldie Boathouse and a chat to the Head Coach.

Alumna Claudia Chu gave a talk on her educational journey from Stephen Perse Foundation through to studying a PhD Psychology and Education at the University of Cambridge.

Alumna Natalie Shenker (left 1996) is a gifted medic and innovative researcher, who set up Hearts Milk Bank, a charity supplying donated breast milk, while also researching the health impacts of breastfeeding on mothers.  Natalie and her team are fundraising for a Milk Mobile to transport frozen milk to hospitals over long distances, and for equipment so her team can start recruiting milk samples into the research biobank from over 20,000 women across the country.

It is with sadness that we announce the passing of Geraldine Owst (at school 1938-1947).

Alumna Gem Bowes (Left SPF 2009) went on to Royal Central School of Speech and Drama (CCSD) in London to do Set Construction, and today came back to run a workshop on set design with a group of our Yr9 set designers, who are working on the YR7 production of 'Emil and the Detectives' which will be performed in July.
