Once again Bishop Luffa students have had great success at the RYA South and South West Regional Championships at Weymouth and Portland National Sailing Academy at the end of September. This was the biggest sailing event in which the sailors could compete this year.

Holly Walford (8Sherborne) has been helping out with ‘Project Wingman’ and baked this fantastic cake for staff at St Richard’s Hospital to share.

Rumboldswhyke School starts a new chapter today, as it formally joins Bishop Luffa School and becomes part of a brand new academy trust for Chichester. The trust is called The Bishop Luffa Learning Partnership.

On Monday 21st September Year 7 gathered on the school field to come together as a community and share in their first Eucharistic service at Bishop Luffa.

Despite a turbulent year for Year 11 students and a very different GCSE results day, Bishop Luffa Sixth Form saw record numbers of students enrol for A-level courses this summer.

On Monday 7th September we were finally able to welcome our new Year 7 pupils to Bishop Luffa School. Being unable to physically come in to the school before now has been hard for them, but they have risen to the challenge of finding their way around a new school and making new friends.

The Class of 2020 left Bishop Luffa School on 20th March, following a hastily arranged leaving service.

Congratulations to all of our Year 13 students! You have shown incredible resilience and are now ready to continue your education in some quite amazing places:

Despite lockdown there was still much to be celebrated at the end of the school year at Bishop Luffa. During the final whole school assembly we found out who won the Head Teacher Awards, who raised the most money for PICU and, of course, who won the Sports and House Cups.

Many of our pupils have been involved in helping the local community during lockdown. One of those is Georgina Lamdin (8Sherborne)who has played an active role in the Covid-19 Mutual Aid project in the Selsey area since the school closed. After completing her school work for the day, Georgina spent a great deal of her time as a "street buddy" helping to coordinate and carry out the regular delivery of food parcels to 30 vulnerable members of the community.
