We were pleased to discover that RGS Worcester Art Technician, Mrs Felicity Osborne, has her artwork featured in the ‘Art Edit 2021’ in the April edition of House and Garden magazine.

RGS is participating in the NHS Art Trail, running in Worcester City centre from 1 to 31 May. The Trail is a free outdoor art event and is linked to the ‘Now We’re Talking with Art’ campaign, which aims to combine art, exercise and mental health.

22 April 2021 was Stephen Lawrence Day and, as a School, we wanted to mark this day and ensure that all our pupils were aware of why it is so important that we remember Stephen and what happened to him.

RGS Lower Sixth Physics pupils took part in an International Masterclass on Particle Physics. The event was hosted by the University of Birmingham Department of Physics and Astronomy

The Headmaster reflected on his experience and that of independent schools during the past year in an article published in this month’s edition of The Independent Schools Magazine.

The final Virtual Concert of the Lent term took place on Tuesday 30 March, with twelve Year Eleven pupils performing. For the first time, several of these performances were pre-recorded, enabling students to perform with a live piano accompaniment in Perrins Hall or Main Hall, before the films were streamed to the audience.

The School wrote an article published in The Worcester News following the announcement of the death of The Duke of Edinburgh. This was an opportunity to demonstrate the very significant impact and legacy of the Duke of Edinburgh Award.

We are pleased to announce that during the Lent term, the House system has flourished with 17 different House events taking place! A huge thank you must go out to all of the staff who have organised and led events, as well as those pupils who participated.

As we enter the Trinity term this week, it has been a treat to see the grounds of RGS Worcester leaping into spring and blossoming with an array of colourful bulbs and plants. Like much of RGS Worcester, the school gardens have enjoyed a long history, with this legacy now in the safe hands of Head Groundsman, Sean Lloyd and his team.
