Year 7 Reflections 🌟
As our Year 7 students complete their first half term at Caterham High School, it is fantastic to hear about the confidence, independence and friendships they have developed since joining secondary school.
One student reflected:
“My first half term has gone so quickly. I’ve made some great friendships, become much more independent and grown in confidence. Although I missed my primary school at first, I now feel settled, supported and proud of how much I’ve matured. I’ve met so many new people and I’m excited for everything still to come this year.”
We are incredibly proud of the resilience and positivity shown by our Year 7 students as they navigate this important transition. Their reflections highlight the strong sense of belonging and personal growth that is helping them thrive within our school community.

Year 7 Reflections after the First Half Term
Starting secondary school can feel daunting, especially when it comes to making new friends and finding your place. One of our Year 7 students reflected on how those early worries have been replaced with confidence, friendship and a real sense of belonging.
“I was worried about making friends, but now I have people around me who support me. I’ve settled into my form, enjoy being part of the school community and I’m having a great time so far.”
It’s fantastic to hear how students are building friendships, growing in confidence and embracing all that secondary school has to offer.
