Crew White
Crew White have been busy making the most of their crew sessions recently, diving into revision as they prepare for their very first round of mock exams.
There’s been a great buzz in the room—lots of conversations about what to expect, from how the exam hall will be set out to swapping revision tips and strategies. We’ve also made plenty of space to talk about worries (because there are always a few!), and importantly, to remind each other that feeling nervous is completely normal. If anything, it shows they care.
What’s been brilliant to see is how maturely everyone has approached it. There’s been real support for one another, honest reflections, and a growing confidence in how to tackle revision without panic-setting in the night before!
That said… I’m not entirely convinced this is real life. How are they old enough to be sitting mocks already?! Surely they’re still Year 7, wobbling under rucksacks twice their size and trekking up a mountain in Wales?!
Time has clearly sped up without warning, and I’m just going to take a moment (or several) to sit quietly in the corner and process this minor emotional crisis…
In all seriousness, we’re incredibly proud of them. They’ve come such a long way, and I’ll be right behind them as they take on this next challenge.
