Sutton High Prep – May Highlights

Year 5: The Trip to The Globe

On the 29/04/2026, five selected girls from Year 5 (Eliana A, Darcey F, Leah J, Estella C and Ella S) went to the globe with other GDST schools to indulge in many exciting workshops such as sword fighting, learning about duals and your different weapons, from an average wooden staff to a glamorous rapier – which was a posh dualling sword, dating back to Tudor times – while having loads of fun. As well as that, we also learned about A Winter’s Tale, reading the scripts, making freeze frames, and even watching it live on stage! It was rather inspirational for everyone to watch Paulina, a noble woman, standing up to Leontus, King of Sicilia, as it really emphasised the outlook and superpowers of our school. We all had a wonderful time, while getting to know many interesting things about William Shakespeare.
