Ibi-Ronke - Sydenham High School

Ibi-Ronke

Year 7 Senior School

When I joined Sydenham High School, I couldn’t wait to take part in all of the clubs that the school had to offer. Overall, this has been a really fun first year in Senior School.

I really like the fact that at Sydenham High everyone is really friendly, kind and always happy to help anyone who has a problem. That is what I really like about the school and why I chose to come here.

One of my favourite subjects is Drama, I really enjoy performing and having drama as a subject has been a great opportunity to perform and learn about the arts in a really fun way. During the Arts Award Bronze, which is a drama qualification equivalent to a D at GCSE, we were challenged in different ways that involved theatre. For example, we learnt how to spectate at a theatre production (which was the amazing production of Aladdin) and we also learnt a lot about different elements and types of drama like, mime and physical theatre. These were really interesting to learn about.

I also like Classics, where you get to learn about the Latin language and the Greek and Roman societies. I enjoy every subject, though, because the lessons are made really fun with different creative activities that we get to do. I really like the fact that at Sydenham High everyone is really friendly, kind and always happy to help anyone who has a problem. That is what I really like about the school and why I chose to come here.

I joined the school in year 7 with an Academic scholarship. The close community created such a welcoming and caring atmosphere that it was an easy transition from my primary school.
