This week, for Children’s Mental Health Awareness Week, our Prep School children and staff shared what belonging means to them.
Mr Halliday led an assembly linked to the theme, encouraging pupils to reflect on wellbeing, connection, and letting go of things that weigh them down.

Where is your happy place?
This week is Children’s Mental Health Week, and the theme is ‘This Is My Place’, celebrating belonging, connection and the places where children feel safe, joyful and truly themselves.
Our Pre Prep children shared their favourite happy places, from muddy puddles to climbing trees, reminding us that everyone has somewhere that makes them feel at home.
Watch to see their happy places and tell us, where is your happy place?

Reception exploring capacity in muddy puddles!
Reception made the most of the puddles after the rain, exploring capacity through play.
Pouring, filling and tipping containers into a larger one, they talked about empty, full and half full… with plenty of muddy splashing along the way.

Year 3 are getting creative in DT.
They are working on Stone Age cave dioramas linked to their class learning. This week they have been painting the base and will soon add detail and texture.
We cannot wait to see their finished creations!

U13 IAPS Tournament
Our U13 IAPS team travelled to Taunton to compete against around 26 schools in what proved to be a highly competitive tournament. Placed in a particularly tough draw, the team faced strong opposition throughout the day and suffered several narrow losses, including a hard fought 2–1 game against Millfield.
What made the performance even more impressive was that the majority of the squad were Year 7 pupils. They showed excellent determination, teamwork and resilience when competing against older opposition and represented the school superbly.
This was a hugely valuable experience for the group and with so many eligible again next year, they will no doubt be looking forward to another opportunity to compete.

A Royal Coronation! 👑
This week Year 2 brought history to life by re-enacting the coronation. Using the crowns they made themselves, the children took on the roles of King, Queen and Archbishop, carefully following each step of the ceremony from robes and vows to the crowning moment.
Their focus, respect and enthusiasm were wonderful to see. It was a fantastic way to experience British history first-hand.

Year 3 Trip to Hillier Gardens.
Year 3 enjoyed a fantastic trip to Hillier Gardens last week, taking part in an exciting, hands-on exploration of life in the Stone Age.
The children stepped into the role of archaeologists as they excavated artefacts from a trench, carefully identifying, cleaning and categorising their discoveries.
In the afternoon, they immersed themselves in a range of Stone Age activities, including fire lighting, chalk carving, roasting apples over an open fire and making bracelets. It was a thoroughly engaging and memorable experience that brought their learning to life.
Our thanks go to @hilliergardens for providing such a wonderful day of discovery and learning.
