From The Chaplain

Thanks for Keeping Others Warm!

There has been a steady stream of donations coming in for our drive of hoodies, trackies and blankies! I have taken two truckloads of items to some of our local agencies and still have quite a bit of stuff to deliver. I can honestly say that your generosity is well appreciated, and it is helping to make winter a bit easier for those who sleep rough in our local community. My final delivery will be on the last day of term (Friday 23 June) so if you are intending to donate, please make sure your items come in before then. They can be left in my office or in the basket outside of the Chapel.

The SCEGGS Podcast “Walk The Mile” Episode 38: Art For Art’s Sake!

SCEGGS has had a long tradition of producing accomplished female artists and encouraging all students to create and explore through their own artistic ability. Some would argue that it is not only important to education but to life itself. Heidi Jackson is the Head of Visual Arts at SCEGGS and has a deep passion for her subject that goes well beyond her role as a teacher. She even has an exhibition coming up in the next couple of weeks with some other members of her department. Our conversation considers the value of art, what it tells us about ourselves and why it is important to society. I hope you enjoy our conversation.

And a reminder that we are published on Spotify, Apple, Google Podcast and Deezer, so you can access it easier from your preferred device. I always welcome your feedback or any ideas you may have for further episodes. You will find each podcast as they are produced in this newsletter and on the other platforms as well as our website.
