OW News
Great to see the four OW Book Groups zooming to discuss their April books last week. The books chosen for May - Hamnet, A Gentleman in Moscow, Sapiens and Telex from Cuba - look set to provide some great discussions too.
175 OWs from across the globe and decades zoomed in to Martin Green’s fascinating talk on Warwickshire’s Industrial Heritage and Warwick School. From Scotland to San Diego and Sydney to South Africa, OWs reconnected with each other, with Martin and with the school.

Message from Mr Richard Nicholson, Principal of the Warwick Independent Schools Foundation
In support of Children’s Mental Health Week, Warwick Independent Schools Foundation launched a new service, dedicated to young people’s mental health and wellbeing. Our schools - Warwick School, Warwick Junior School, and King’s High and Warwick Prep - have drawn on their own resources, based on years of experience and specialist guidance, to provide access for anyone with an interest in mental health and wellbeing, as well as the wider school community. Our new Wellbeing Hub is now available here.
Wishing all our OWs a Happy New Year from all at Warwick School.

The opportunity to lead Warwick School, one of the most outstanding schools in the country, attracted an exceptional field of educationalists.
Now, following a comprehensive and rigorous process that started in August, it gives me the greatest of pleasure to announce Mr James Barker as the new Head Master of Warwick School.
