What Our Girls Say

Emily

Year 11, Junior Leadership Team

I am very fortunate to have been selected as a member of the Junior Leadership Team because I am passionate about our school and the values for which it stands for. 

I feel that I have developed so much over the last few years, and much of this is directly attributable to the incredible experiences and support which I have benefitted at Ricards Lodge. My friends, the teachers and other members of staff have all helped support me at times during this journey, and I am so excited to now have the opportunity to give back to the school and to help support others. 

There are so many ways in which the school can help us develop and become better versions of ourselves, from how we treat and respect each other, to how we challenge ourselves by taking on new sports, clubs and projects. One of the amazing opportunities that this school offers is the chance to participate in the Duke of Edinburgh award scheme, which has taught me so much about teamwork and resilience, whilst giving me experiences that I will never forget.

I want to use this opportunity as a member of the JLT to help encourage everyone to make the most of their time at Ricards Lodge and to help ensure that each one of us can become ‘successful women of the future’.
