We are delighted to announce that the RGS Worcester Family of Schools have been shortlisted for the 2021 Herefordshire and Worcestershire Chamber Business Awards in the ‘Best Use of Technology’ category.

Following on from our success at the Physics Olympiad Senior Challenge, we are delighted to share the good news that Years Nine and Ten pupils were awarded a total of 102 medals (including 9 Gold medals) in this year’s Physics Olympiad Junior Challenge.

After a recent visit to RGS Worcester from a representative of ‘The Good Schools Guide’, please enjoy reading the fantastic review of our School, now available online.

This season we have seventeen pupils from across the RGSW Family of Schools registered for the National Schools Equestrian Association and, even throughout lockdown, the pupils had the opportunity to compete in virtual dressage competitions, where they recorded their tests in an arena at home and sent videos off to be judged.

Members of the RGS Gardening Club would have normally been designing and building a garden for the RHS Malvern Show this term. But, with the event sadly not going ahead this year, our young horticulturists have been challenged to channel their gardening skills but on a much smaller scale…

In anticipation of the upcoming event ‘Worcester’s Big Parade’ – an art trail of beautifully decorated elephant sculptures on display throughout Worcester City in July, RGS Worcester delivered our superbly decorated Baby Elephant to the team at St Richard’s Hospice. 

As part of the Mental Health Awareness Week and its theme of ‘Nature’, Year Nine pupils have joined together in support of this important cause and an inter-form competition has sprung to life to see who can grow the best Dwarf Sunflower.

This week the Year Ten Textiles group spent their afternoon lesson at The Hive. With ‘Modern Architecture’ as the topic for their most recent GCSE project, the pupils enjoyed the opportunity to gather some primary research by taking a range of photographs of our local landmark building.

Rugby players were pleased to take the field this week, after a 14-month absence. We were also delighted to see the first ever RGS Worcester Girls Under 18 Rugby team enjoy a competitive fixture against Hereford Sixth Form College.
