School Library

School Library

Students at our school are benefiting from a major addition to the library shelves this term, thanks to a generous £500 grant awarded by the Alton Lions Club. The donation has enabled the school to purchase a range of high quality non fiction books, expanding the resources available to students across all year groups. Packed with detailed illustrations, real world stories, and fascinating facts, the new titles cover subjects ranging from science and natural history to world events and technology. The arrival of the new collection coincides with the National Year of Reading 2026, a nationwide campaign led by the Department for Education and the National Literacy Trust. The national initiative encourages young people to "Go All In" on the topics they love through books. While fictional stories are a fundamental part of any school library, educators emphasise that non fiction plays a vital role in developing literacy, particularly for students who do not see themselves as traditional readers. Books built around facts, real life events, or practical mechanics often serve as an ideal entry point to help children build confidence and develop reading habits for pleasure. The new non fiction titles have already been catalogued and are now available for students to borrow during library hours. The school community extends its sincere gratitude to the members of the Alton Lions Club for their continued investment in local education and youth literacy. View Article

Year 11 Prom: A Spectacular Send-Off

On a beautifully warm evening, Audleys Wood Hotel played host to Amery Hill School's Year 11 Prom. It was a truly magical occasion from start to finish, providing a fitting tribute to a group of remarkable students who have navigated their secondary education with such vibrant spirit, resilience, and determination. Despite the summer heat, our students arrived determined to celebrate in style! The red-carpet arrivals were a spectacle, with students making grand entrances in everything from tractors to sports cars, reflecting their vibrant personalities. Everyone certainly dressed to impress, and the students went to amazing lengths with their sharp suits and stunning dresses; they looked absolutely magnificent. Inside the venue, the atmosphere was simply electric. The evening was packed with special entertainment, a delicious summer buffet, moving speeches, a mind-boggling magician, a photo booth packed with props, and a much-welcomed ice cream station to keep everyone cool. The energy peaked on the dance floor, which quickly became the heart of the celebration as students and staff thoroughly enjoyed themselves dancing to the DJ alongside a fantastic live performance by our increasingly popular staff band. Speaking about the success of the celebration, Mr Board, Progress Leader, commented: "All the students and staff thoroughly enjoyed themselves and it was the perfect way to send the Year 11 students on to the next stage of their journey. You have been an amazing year group and everyone at Amery Hill wishes you all the very best in the future!" With heartfelt goodbyes, it was the perfect finale to their time at Amery Hill during an unforgettable night where lasting friendships were celebrated and cherished memories were made. Amery Hill School is incredibly proud of all that these young people have achieved, not just academically, but in how they have grown into such inspiring, well-rounded individuals. As our students now move on to their next exciting adventures, whether that is further education, apprenticeships, or embarking on unique new paths, everyone at the school wishes them the best of luck. We know they are destined for great things. Good luck, Year 11, you have been absolutely brilliant! Click here to view our full gallery of photos from the evening. View Article
