SPEECH DAY 2024
Friday 28 June
WELCOME
At the end of the summer term, we recall the past school year, rejoice in our communal spirit, and bid a fond farewell to the pupils who leave us to move on to the next stage of their lives.
​
This morning’s event will entertain you and showcase the myriad accomplishments and talents of our pupils. You will also feel the power and warmth of our community, as we come together to celebrate what makes
Uppingham so special.

CONGREGATIONAL HYMN
Libera Me
Libera me Domine
De morte aeterna
In die illa tremenda
In die illa
Quando caeli movendi sunt
Quando caeli movendi sunt
Et terra
Dum veneris judicare
Saeculum per ignem.
