MAKING MALVERNIANS
Welcome Message
At the heart of a Malvern education is the belief that true learning extends beyond the classroom. It nurtures not only academic excellence but also the spirit of exploration, critical thinking, innovation, communication, and teamwork. Across every Malvern school—from the UK to our international campuses in China, Egypt, Hong Kong, and Japan—you will find an environment that cultivates these qualities in every student.
In this third edition of Making Malvernians, we celebrate the diverse talents and remarkable achievements of our students. Their success stories, whether on the sports field, the racing track, horseback, at sea, or through artistic and musical pursuits, highlight the holistic approach to education that defines a Malvern education. These experiences are crucial in fostering resilience, creativity, and determination, shaping young minds and preparing them for the challenges of life.
It is clear to see that our Malvernians are true Explorers, constantly seeking new horizons in both their academic and personal lives. They are Free Thinkers, unafraid to challenge the status quo and forge their own paths. As Change Makers, they are committed
to positively impacting their communities and the world. They excel as Communicators, articulating their ideas clearly and persuasively. And, as Team Builders, they understand the power of collaboration and mutual support.
To the young people featured in this edition, your hard work and dedication are truly commendable. You exemplify the qualities that define Malvernians and set an inspiring example for your peers. To our teachers, thank you for your unwavering encouragement and belief in those you teach. And to our readers, we hope these stories inspire you to continue exploring and pursuing your own goals with the same passion and resolve. Keep exploring!
