Amazing results, a strong sense of community and a cracking extra-curricular programme - @ReigateGrammar is crazy impressive. Oh, and pastoral care is central to everything. Read our review, then book into their open morning on Thurs 19 May. surrey.muddystilettos.co.uk/…

Reading @ReigateGrammar magazine and saw that Mr Cline has retired. I've mentioned it before, but he inspired my love of Geography. He also had the perfect balance between high expectations and a great sense of humour. You know the teacher you try to emulate, it was him for me.
Life is for living! When you go on your last school trip together you have to make the most of it. Happy Retirement to my legend of a Husband! 38 years in one school!

Pressure waves from huge VEI4+ Hunga-Tonga-Hunga-Ha'apai eruption clearly visible on #Reigate pressure chart from yesterday.
Evidence of two pressure waves from the eruption of the Hunga Tonga–Hunga Haʻapai volcano. The first wave travelled a distance of ~16,500 km (10,200 miles) and arrived around 14½ hours after eruption, the second wave (going the other way around Earth) arrived 21 hours afterwards.
