The U11 girls were a credit to Heath Mount at St George's Park - the national centre for football - at the @isfafootball national finals today. In a very tight and competitive group, the girls drew 2, lost 1 and won 1 game in the first four matches. This meant that they needed to win by 2 or more goals in the last group game vs Perse to progress into the semifinals. The girls came out firing - with goals from Isla, Evie and Xa and a 3-0 victory set up a semi final vs Brentwood School. The girls battled hard from the first whistle but it was relentless pressure from Brentwood throughout and a 0-2 loss against worthy finalists. It was an incredible experience to play on the same pitches as the Lionesses. Heath Mount was definitely the best supported school on show!

Year 1 loved their history-themed Seaside Day experience with @historyoffthepage, learning all about how people in the Victorian era enjoyed their holidays by the sea. After a craft-filled morning, an immersive workshop included the chance to be stallholders and customers on the promenade. The children did a super job of running the tea shop, selling ice-creams and the arcade featuring traditional games from yesteryear. #prepreplife #victorianhistory #seasideday #learningisfun #privateschool #hertford

Thank you to everyone who came out to support our charity colour run yesterday in aid of Twende Education For All and Namoomba School, Zambia, and especially to our army of volunteers and the @woodhallestate.uk for providing the spectacular course. The morning began with a brilliant warm-up session by Mr & Mrs Archer before everyone took to the start line for a rainbow-hued countdown. As they ran the 2.5k loop, everyone enjoyed the amazing vistas from the other side of the Broadwater back towards the main mansion house. Back at our Event Village, the children loved the archery sessions provided by our friends @letsleapholidaycamps and we all tucked into the delicious BBQ run by our wonderful parent volunteers. A huge extra thank you to Thomas Abel-Smith for providing the incredible drone footage over the Woodhall Estate.

Year 7 have dived into the activities at their Abernant Lake Residential in Wales, rising to the challenge of paddle boarding, raft-building, archery and climbing as well as learning a few key survival skills. They have been working brilliantly together in their teams and taking great pride in ferrying their lucky mascots around each task! #outdooradventure #residential #prepschoollife #privateschool #teamwork
