Cedars Upper School

Our July Employee of the Month: A huge thank you to Dave for going over and beyond to support the school and always giving his all to developing the site at Cedars. He is a true Cedars Champion! @ChilternLT @Umara1Qureshi @mjpGibbs

Best adventures can come from unexpected changes! Due to weather, we detoured to stunning Ninh Binh. We rowed along a peaceful river between towering mountains, cycled through rice paddies with breathtaking views, al& climbed 500 steps to a mountaintop pagoda. Unforgettable!

We’ve had an amazing first day in Hanoi—exploring the city, enjoying delicious local food, and visiting a beautiful temple. A perfect start to our three-week journey through Vietnam and Cambodia!

We made it to Hanoi! 🎉 Our group's first mission: immersing ourselves in the local culture via some fantastic Vietnamese street food. Mission accomplished! Ready to hit the ground running and explore the city bright and early.

"Today marks the start of an unforgettable adventure! 🌍✈️ Our Cedars students are off on the Cambodia Vietnam Expedition – ready to learn, explore, and make a difference. Wishing them a safe journey and incredible experiences ahead! #CedarsExpedition #GlobalLearning

A huge congratulations to Nelly for receiving her Headteacher award for being Aspirational and Creative. Nelly is an aspiring author and is currently writing a fictional book which we can’t wait to read! Well done Nelly!

🎉 We're proud to present our very first Cedars Champion award to Dave Anderson! 👏 Dave's leadership in the Apps for Good programme has empowered our students to achieve national recognition and build incredible confidence. Thank you, Dave! 🌟

A fantastic end to Day 1 of the last Bronze D of E of the school year! Some incredible hard work, perseverance and collaboration on show. Marshmallows to be toasted on the campfire, then off to bed!
