There was a truly global nature to the Tonbridge Science Conference 2021 as students from Australia, Mexico and the USA joined those from various schools in the UK during the virtual event on Tuesday 2 March.

A Tonbridge School team has advanced to the next round of the English-Speaking Union’s Schools’ Mace, the oldest and largest debating competition for schools in England.

Tonbridge School’s Upper Sixth students will be taking up places at many of the world’s leading universities, including Oxford and Cambridge, later this year.

Tonbridge boys achieved a highly impressive set of results in the first round of the British Physics Olympiad, a national competition which encourages the study of the subject and recognises excellence in young physicists.

Boys and staff from Tonbridge School are keeping others very much in mind in the run-up to the festive period, with their wide programme of voluntary activities showing that ‘Christmas is the time for giving’.

Lower Sixth student James Watts (OH4) is Tonbridge School’s latest recipient of a renowned Arkwright Engineering Scholarship.
