Grease is the Word

Posted on: February 11th 2025

Earlier this month, AmeDSC 0474IMG 8960ry Hill School put on an incredible production of ‘Grease’, playing to sold-out audiences in the school hall for a week. Sixty cast members, ensemble and musicians put on a memorable show, with the finalé being a ‘singalong’ performance on Valentine’s night, for family and members of the public. There was lots of audience participation throughout this evening, with everyone staying on at the end of the night to belt out ‘Summer Nights’, ‘Greased Lightning’ and ‘You’re the One that I Want’ all over again!

This show has been many months in the making – a collaboration between the school’s Music, Dance and Drama Departments. The standard of choreography and performance was exceptionally high this year, with a strong ensemble and brilliant live band supporting a cast of very talented actors. Amery Hill is grateful to everyone who helped put the production together including families and colleagues for their support with costumes – which helped take us right back to 1959! And the charity Livewire, who provided high quality lighting and sound equipment to help this musical positively burst off the stage. But above all, a huge well done to the students who performed with such skill and energy. Your commitment and hard work putting this show together really did pay off!

GCSE Results 2025

We extend our warmest congratulations to the Amery Hill School Class of 2025 for their superb results in their GCSE exams. Their results indicate even better progress than that made in previous years, and fantastic attainment. This year group has impressed us all with their determination, focus and positivity, both in their studies and in the way they have contributed to the wider life of our school. They have consistently supported one another and embodied the kindness and consideration that underpin our strong sense of community, at the heart of Alton – a wonderful legacy to the school. At Amery Hill, our motto is ‘Education for Life’. We aim for every student to leave us as a confident, independent and resilient young adult, ready to thrive in the opportunities and challenges that lie ahead. The Class of 2025 have lived out these values, working in partnership with our dedicated staff and with the invaluable encouragement of their families. Their results are a clear reflection of what can be achieved when aspiration is matched with commitment and character. We are incredibly proud of what our students have accomplished. Their success once again highlights the importance of our core values: Independence, Creativity, Active Learning, Resilience and Empathy. With these qualities, the Class of 2025 are extremely well-placed to embrace their next steps – whether that be college, apprenticeships or training – and to do so with confidence and purpose. They started their Amery journeys in uncertain times but now have given themselves certainty about their futures. It has been a privilege to work with this fantastic year group - they will be remembered for their energy, determination and good humour. On behalf of the whole school community, I wish them every success, health and happiness as they begin this exciting new chapter in their lives.   R Jeckells HeadteacherView Article
