Coffee Concerts are a staple in the Rugby School Music Calendar, and they always deliver something special. Hattie performed Pretty Flower by Kerin Bailey in this morning’s Coffee Concert, our third of the term.

Well done to our other performers Seth and Valentina for fantastic performances each!

Does a voice gain its power from the speaker or from those who hear it? How are political views expressed through fashion? Which social groups and interests had a voice in shaping economic policy in Britain between 1815 and 1820?

These were among the questions explored at Rugby School UK’s D Block (Year 11) Academic Conference, where two RSJ pupils took part for the first time, following our own Academic Conference in June.

Bringing together more than 80 pupils from Rugby School UK, local schools, and Rugby School Japan, the conference explored the theme of “Voice” through pupil-led research across a wide range of subjects, from history and politics to social media, fashion and beyond. Pupils presented their findings and exchanged perspectives with their peers.

Three keynote speakers — Rugby School history teacher Dr Tom Smith, historian and broadcaster Jackson van Uden, and University of Warwick Assistant Professor Jiachen Jiang — offered further perspectives through history, politics, and science.

For our pupils, the experience extended beyond the conference. Staying in their corresponding Houses at RSUK, they spent time with their UK buddies, joined lessons and enrichment activities, and experienced daily life at their sister school.

Academic exchanges like this help nurture globally minded learners, encouraging pupils to challenge their thinking, engage with different perspectives, and build the confidence to share their ideas in unfamiliar settings. Just as importantly, they build friendships and shared experiences that connect our schools across borders.

Watch the video to hear from two RSJ pupils, their RSUK buddy, and two teachers about their experiences and the value of learning together.

Massive thank you to Rugby School for inviting me to visit the school and then going above and beyond by offering me a 1-2-1 session with Alex Grove! 🏉🔥 Getting to train on The Close, where rugby began, made it even more special. I absolutely loved it and really appreciate the opportunity! Thank you @rugbyschool1567 #schoolvisit #rugbyunion #rugby

"I want to be a role model for others."

Representation matters. So does seeing people who show us what's possible.
