This week we caught up again with CCS alumna Hannah Croxson (2015-2022), who returned to CCS in April 2026 to speak with students considering a career in policing.

Since leaving CCS, Hannah has progressed from Police Community Support Officer to Police Constable with Warwickshire Police. Her inspiring story of resilience, determination and achieving a childhood dream is now live on our alumni webpage (https://campden.school/alumni/). 👮‍♀️💙

We're delighted to share a new addition to the Chipping Campden School website: History of Chipping Campden School 1974-2012, written by former Headteachers Jeff Price and Annette France.

The publication captures nearly four decades of school life, charting the developments, challenges, achievements and memories that helped shape CCS into the school it is today. From royal visits and building projects to curriculum developments and changing educational landscapes, it provides a fascinating insight into an important period of our history.

A huge thank you to Jeff Price and Annette France for generously giving their time to record these memories for future generations of Campdonians.

We're pleased to confirm that the next chapter, covering 2012 onwards, is already in development. Stay tuned!

🚴 24-Hour Charity Cycle – Alumni, Would You Like to Get Involved?! 🚴

We’re excited to share that the PE Department is hosting a 24-hour sponsored cycle to raise funds to resurface our school netball and tennis courts.

📅 Starts: Friday 10 July, 4:30pm
📅 Finishes: Saturday 11 July, 4:30pm

The aim is to keep a continuous ‘baton’ of cyclists going around Chipping Campden for the full 24 hours – and we’d love our alumni community to get involved! Whether you fancy jumping on a bike for a 10–20km loop, helping marshal the route, or simply coming along to support, you’d be very welcome.

On Saturday morning (from 10:00am), we’re inviting everyone onto site to cheer on the cyclists as they return each hour – expect a great atmosphere with banners, stalls and plenty of encouragement!

If you’d like to support from afar, you can also donate via the sponsorship page – every contribution will help improve our sports facilities for current and future students (https://www.gofundme.com/f/resurface-the-school-netball-and-tennis-courts?attribution_id=sl:5d2fc8d9-d6b8-4a4d-85e1-02c356d94782&lang=en_US&ts=1782388643&utm_campaign=fp_sharesheet&utm_content=amp20_t1&utm_medium=customer&utm_source=copy_link)

It would be fantastic to have some former Campden students involved – whether cycling, supporting, or spreading the word!

Please send a direct message if any of the above is of interest so we can put you in touch with the PE department.
