It might only have been six months or so since they were last in school, but the Class of 2019 were excited to be back as they gathered together for the first time since completing their A levels in the summer.

Spirits were high, as they greeted each other like long lost friends, and caught up with former teachers, to swap news and share stories about life at Uni or on gap years.

There was a great turn out for the reception held in the theatre foyer, as they retuned to LEH to collect their A level certificates in person. Head mistress Mrs Hanbury told them how proud the school was of their achievements already, reminding them: "Once you're an LEH student, you're always an LEH student!"

She urged them to keep in touch and reminded them about activating their accounts on Holles Connect, as well as signing up to the University Clubs there in order to benefit from the many networking benefits that staying in touch with the school and its alumnae allows.

It was so lovely to see everyone again and we hope it's just the first of many reunions and LEH alumnae events that they will enjoy over the years to come.
