Festival of Courage

We are delighted to announce the launch of our third annual Truro School Festival; the 2024 Festival of Courage (24 June - 5 July). Designed to celebrate our school values, this annual event first began in 2022 with the Festival of Curiosity; a value that drives us to develop knowledge and understanding through inspirational opportunities.

Last year, we celebrated Compassion by looking outwards to our wider communities; in School, in Truro, throughout Cornwall and globally.

For 2024, our value is Courage; a value that drives our School Community to enjoy becoming the very best of who we are, with integrity and ambition.

Alongside a host of inspiring guest speakers, the 2024 festival lineup will bring together many of our Summer Term Fixtures such as World AIMS, Sports Day and our Year 6 Play as well as a raft of one-off concerts, performances and events that are underpinned by this most inspiring of values.

So, take heart, step forward bravely and without trepidation as we warmly welcome our School Community to join us for the 2024 Truro School Festival of Courage.
