  • Ottelia Shares a Court with Tennis Legends at the Laver Cup

    Published 03/10/22

    In June, this year Roger Federer released a video on social media inviting applicants between the ages of 12 and 16 to come to trials to be a ball kid for the Laver Cup. King’s High pupil, Ottelia decided to apply and was one of the fortunate few to be invited to a 90-minute trial at the Olympic Park in London. Over the course of one weekend numerous trials were run, with approximately 100 individuals at each trial being put through their paces, all under the watchful eye of the assessors.  From here Ottelia would go on to be one of only 12 girls and 24 ball kids to be selected for the Laver Cup. We sat down with Ottelia, who told us all about what it was like to trial, train and go on to share a court with some of the greatest names in tennis.

  • Her Majesty was an Inspiration to Young and Old

    Published 08/09/22

    We join the nation in deepest sadness at the loss of Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II. Her Majesty was an inspiration to young and old around the globe, and to us all. Our family of schools in the Warwick Schools Foundation send sincere condolences to the Royal family. 

    The Queen and her sister, Princess Margaret, were the last members of the Royal family to be educated at home by tutors, in the traditional manner. The Queen was taught constitutional History by the Provost of Eton, and learned to speak French fluently. Her predecessor, Henry VIII was influenced by the scholar Erasmus - who promoted the liberal arts and sciences over military training – in the curriculum studied by Henry VIII’s children.  

    The Foundation's royal connections go back more than 1000 years to Edward the Confessor and the foundation of Warwick School. It was King Henry VIII in 1545 who re-established the 'King’s New School of Warwick’, and it is therefore Henry VIII from whom King's High School takes its name, ultimately leading to the Warwick Schools Foundation we know today.

    Richard Nicholson, Principal of Warwick Schools Foundation, commented:  

    ‘I can only say what we all know – Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II was an inspiration to us all, and a Mother to our nation. Her values, duty, and model of leadership will continue to shine a light for all young people, and our pupils in the Warwick Schools Foundation. 

    We cherish very happy memories of Her Majesty’s daughter, HRH The Princess Royal’s recent visit to the Warwick Schools Foundation and we extend to the Princess Royal and the Royal Family our deepest condolences.’
