Memories...

“When I came to parents’ evening I was really struck by how little has changed: the queues are just as long and the school looks the same – even some of the teachers are the same.  But seeing the girls chatting away there made me realise that the culture of friendship is still at the heart of the school”

"The best school years of my entire life! There were wonderful girls in my form and I had such good classes that I still reflect on to this day. CSG was a wonderful place for me. Remembering Founder's Day and getting on the coach to go to games."

"Miss Birchell, Liver sausage rolls, Voting to get rid of school uniform"

 "I owe so much to CSG and I remember my time there very fondly. The teaching was outstanding and it gave me such a great start in life- a passion for learning, the courage to try new things and embrace the successes and failures equally as part of my journey. I owe a lot to CSG for enabling me with the courage to follow my heart and to dare to try."

"Camden made me the strong slightly stroppy woman I became!~
