Book of the Week - Happyhead, by Josh Silver

We are in an epidemic. An epidemic of unhappiness. Friends, here is the good news: HappyHead has the answer.

When Seb is offered a place on a radical retreat designed to solve the crisis of teenage unhappiness, he is determined to change how people see him and make his parents proud. But as he finds himself drawn to the enigmatic Finn, Seb starts to question the true nature of the challenges they must undergo. The deeper into the programme the boys get, the more disturbing the assessments become, until it’s clear there may be no escape...

Energy drink ban for under-16s planned

Is the nanny state going too far? The UK government plans to protect teenagers from drinking too much caffeine. Some say there are already too many rules. Prime. Boost. Monster. Rockstar. Relentless. The names are alarming enough. But, when you look at the ingredients, things get more worrying.  Red Bull, the most popular energy drink in Britain, contains 80mg of caffeine per can. Monster, the next most popular, contains roughly twice that amount — as much as two double espressos. 

Too much caffeine can cause headaches, heart palpitations and sleep problems. Extreme side effects include seizures and even death. Up to a third of children in the UK consume energy drinks each week. But young people have smaller bodies and developing brains, which makes them more vulnerable to excess caffeine. Now the government will ban shops from selling them to under-16s. “You can see the impact on health, concentration and learning”, claims health secretary Wes Streeting. Meanwhile, Professor Amelia Lake has studied the effect of energy drinks on young people, and argues that they have “no place” in the diets of children.

London Lecture - ‘The afterlife of atoms' by Tim Gregory, Royal Institution, Monday 13 October 2025

Living in London, we are very fortunate to have a multitude of top-class events on our doorstep. Every half term there is a trip to an interesting lecture or event in London.

‘The afterlife of atoms: Saving lives and exploring space with nuclear waste’
Nuclear waste has a bad name. But in the same way we give everyday waste a new life through household recycling, we can give nuclear waste a second life through chemical recycling.
In this talk, nuclear chemist Tim Gregory explores how exotic isotopes in nuclear waste — by-products of nuclear power — are being transformed into remarkable tools. They can be concocted into nuclear medicines, used to cure and diagnose illnesses on the smallest scale possible: one radioactive atom at a time. And they can be fashioned into long-lasting power sources for spacecraft, enabling the exploration of the solar system and — in the not-too-distant future — thriving settlements on the Moon… and beyond. 

Monday 13 October 2025, 7 - 8.30pm, Royal Institution (leave school at 5.45pm)


If you want to go: see Mr Scicinski in the Helikon Centre.  An email with details will be sent to all parents on 11/9/25

SOCS Co-curricular sign-up

Thank you for attending the Co-curricular Fair yesterday.

Between now and the end of Sunday you have the opportunity to go onto SOCS Co-curriular and sign up for various activities. However, while it is helpful if you do this, do not worry if you cannot do it (for example for technical reasons). You are still allowed just to turn up at a club and give your name to the teacher in charge.

Book of the Week - 100 tales from the Tokyo Ghost Café by Julian Sedgwick (F SED)

Abducted by spirits from his village, lost boy Akira must make the long journey in north Japan to find his family and save his young sister, before time runs out. Voyaging deeper and deeper into a Japan ‘between the worlds’, Akira and his companions encounter a host of yokai monsters and famous ghosts, discovering a sometimes comical and sometimes terrifying world of interlinked and ghostly short stories along the way.

Article of the Week

Less than half food grown feeds humans

Could changing what we eat avert the climate crisis? New research shows we are failing to eat more than half of all the food we produce — while agriculture heats the planet to boiling point. For most of history, meat was a luxury. As late as the early 20th Century, a working-class person would  probably only eat it once a week for Sunday lunch, buying it as soon as their meagre pay came in on Saturday. Now, half of Britons say they eat meat every day. 

But is this sustainable? A new study has found that we only end up eating around half the food we produce globally. And the main culprit is meat. Four of the world’s staple grains for human beings — corn, sorghum, barley, and oats — are also fed in large quantities to the animals raised for meat and dairy. However, we do not get the same amount of calories out of these animals’ meat as we do out of the plants that we use to feed them. This is because the animals use those calories themselves, and because not all of the animal can be eaten. The amount lost per animal varies. Beef is the most wasteful meat: it takes about 25 calories of grain to produce just one calorie of beef. Pork takes 15. Chicken is the most calorie-efficient of the meats, but every one calorie it yields still needs nine calories of grain. All in all, we lose about 45% of all the calories we grow simply because we prefer to feed them to animals or, increasingly, to use them as biofuels. This matters because more than 8% of the world, around 673 million people, do not currently have enough to eat.

Going to mass at the end of period 4 today

At the end of period 3 today (11.55) students should go to the black pitch and line up behind their form number which is painted on the ground.  You can find which number your form number lines up behind in the student handbook and you will have seen this in the powerpoint you looked at with your tutor this morning.  This will show you where you need to go when/if there is a fire alarm at any point.  
We will then go from the black pitch to the abbey for our start-of-term mass.
