    The new school year is officially underway! We were thrilled to welcome back our St Piran's families and extend a very special welcome to those joining our school community this year. The term began on a high note with our first Prefects' Tea, where the Head Girl and Head Boy shared their hopes for the year ahead. And we're loving the fresh look of our beautifully repainted school building. #BackToSchool #WelcomeBack #NewBeginnings #StudentLeadership #SchoolCommunity #MaidenheadSchools #BerkshireSchools #StPirans

    Today is a very special day. Today is Good Friday. Our school chapel is undecorated and silent this morning as we quietly contemplate Christ's sacrifice and the importance of forgiveness. But did you know that Good used to mean Holy, as in the Good Book and Good Wednesday. This is why today is called Good Friday. It's a very Holy day. #easter #chapel #church #goodfriday #maidenhead #holyweek

    What's your favourite animal? Just some of the amazing wildlife from our recent exchange to South Africa. Some incredible work from the teams in both countries created the most amazing memories that will last a lifetime. What an adventure!
