Once a year, things get seriously competitive at Marlborough… and it’s all about pumpkins!
Our staff get creative with their carving skills, while students help supply the materials, and the results are always wonderfully weird, wacky and imaginative!
This year’s four entries certainly didn’t disappoint! We had a fearsome wolf, a beautifully themed Halloween table setting with a pumpkin centrepiece, and then there was Mr Trump, forever campaigning. And if Mr Trump didn't bring enough drama, check out first place! This gritty masterpiece came complete with a jagged grin, red eyes and massive shards of "bloody" glass exploding right out of its head. Straight out of a slasher film and absolutely worth the win.

Wishing everyone a lovely half term break We look forward to seeing you all on Monday 2nd November. Remember the clocks are going back tomorrow night.

Year 11, half term is finally here! While it’s a crucial time to keep your GCSE momentum going, it’s just as important to plug in and power down. You can’t run on an empty battery.
Here is your game plan for the week:
Revision: Keep it structured, focused, and in bite-sized chunks.
Rest: Sleep in, step away from the desk, and give your mind a break.
Reward: Do what makes you happy—see friends, watch a film, or just do absolutely nothing for a bit.
Work hard, but look after yourself. You've got this!
