Reading Competition. April to July
The annual competition, held from April through July, is one of the most exciting and highly anticipated events for students across the island. During the course of the competition, participating students go through multiple rounds, each designed to challenge their knowledge, skills, and teamwork. An elimination process ensures that only the most prepared and determined schools advance through each stage, making every round increasingly competitive and thrilling. The ultimate goal is to be the last school standing, which earns the prestigious island trophy and the honor of representing excellence in the competition.
Lighthouse Christian Academy (LCA) has consistently demonstrated exceptional performance in this event. The school has proudly won the island trophy twice, showcasing the dedication, skill, and preparation of its students and teachers. In addition to these victories, LCA has earned second and third-place finishes on several occasions, highlighting its ongoing commitment to excellence. Remarkably, the school has reached the finals almost every year, with only one exception, proving a track record of consistent achievement and strong competition.
This competition not only promotes academic growth and teamwork among students but also fosters school pride and community support. LCA’s history of success in the event reflects the hard work, resilience, and talent of its students, making it a source of pride for the entire school community.
Parents, students and community members are invited to attend this meeting, which discusses educational issues at the high school and its middle and elementary schools. Schools in the Kerrington cluster are: Aldiger, Caramba, Chesterfield, Cutterey, Fraiser, Johnson, Antonio, Lorney Winston, Ramos, and Westford secondary schools; Monterey and Tilt middle schools; and Kearrrinfton High. All schools and district offices are closed for Martin Luther King Jr. Day. Year-round schools resume school. Open to the public.
The Clairemont High School junior received the honor from the youth division of the international animal rights organization People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA).

The multi-group recital included jolly renditions from the Lower School and Middle School choirs, the Gong Gang, Marimbas, Ukestra, and the Jazz Couriers. Our wonderful Lower School students were recently visited by three charity representatives after they raised over £1,500 for charitable causes. As part of their annual DUCK week (Developing, Understanding, Caring and Kindness), each year group decided on a different fundraising method, organising activities from discos and games, to face painting and volunteering.
