THE SIBFORDIAN 2018


Welcome to The Sibfordian, the annual magazine of Sibford School.


This issue looks back on just a small selection of the many events that have taken place during the 2017/18 academic year. It would be impossible to cover everything that goes on, but we hope that it at least provides a snapshot of life at Sibford School.


In friendship

Our front cover photograph has been produced by Year 11 pupil Tom as part of his GCSE course work. Tom says: “This photograph was inspired by Picasso’s light drawing series and was part of my GCSE Art coursework. The image was achieved by using a fluorescent light wand which was rotated at speed in an external dark environment. This was a long exposure shot using the following settings on a Canon 7D Mark 2: Shutter Speed of 20, F13 and ISO 100.”
