Eco Week kicked off with a debate considering whether individual and small scale actions to reduce the effects of climate change are useless. Subjects as wide-ranging as the plastic straw ban to the Brazilian rainforest were considered. There was an excellent turnout, with students from both Lower School and Sixth Form taking part, and the debating grew fierce, eventually deciding that small-scale efforts are not completely useless. 

On the 17th September, Emily and I toured three lovely ladies around Kendrick who had attended the school in the 1940s. Vivienne, Hilary and Miriam Stock, as they were known when they attended Kendrick, had come back to visit whilst Miriam, who now lives in Sydney, was in the UK.

On Wednesday 18th September 2019, we got the opportunity to go to RAF Benson to be flown in an aircraft used in the RAF alongside a RAF pilot.

Earlier this year, I was fortunate enough to be given a travel grant of £350 from the Kendrick Trustees, despite no-longer being a student at the school, which was a great help towards funding a university placement I was undertaking in Zambia in Africa.
