Our U11A netballers braved icy temperatures and had a blast on court in Warwick today! We were proud to see them finish as Runners Up of the @warwickprep tournament. Thank you to our wonderful hosts for a great day and congratulations to The Croft School.

In science this week, Year 3 learnt how to build a simple circuit before simulating a giant electrical circuit - using their bodies to represent electrons. They picked up 'energy' (a small ball) from a 'cell' (a tent) and carried it along 'wires' marked on the floor. At the 'bulb' (a tunnel), they dropped off the energy whilst shouting "light" to show the transfer of energy. It was a fun, hands-on way for the children to engage with their subject and embed their knowledge. Find out more about our exciting curriculum and meet our inspirational teaching staff at our 'school in action' OPEN MORNING on Thursday, 13th February from 9-11am.

It has been wonderful to welcome back our pupils for the start of the Lent Term against a backdrop of frosted fields and blue skies. Across the curriculum, the children have enthusiastically dived straight back into learning and playing with their friends. Enjoy some photos from the first four days including everything from number work and developing HTML skills to rugby drills, baking garlic doughballs and sewing fleece hats! There's plenty to look forward to this half term including next week's visit from Ark Farm to Nursery and Reception as well as our Orchestras and Ensembles Concert, Year 2's Egyptian Day, U11 Regional hockey finals, primary schools' cross country championships and House Matches! If you are considering private education for your child, you are warmly invited to join us on our upcoming open morning on Thursday 13th February from 9-11am to see the school in action. Book your place via our website or call our Registrar Mrs Louise Cook on 01920 830230. We look forward to welcoming you! #privateschool #hertford #ware #hertfordshire #backtoschool #prepschool #nursery #education #everydayextraordinary #opemorning

Flashback to last Wednesday when our incredible @holroydhowe catering team served up a delicious Christmas lunch for over 600 pupils and staff! On the menu was roast Norfolk turkey, pigs in blankets, shredded Brussel sprouts with garlic and thyme, roast honey parsnips and carrots followed by a platter of sweet treats. After such a hearty lunch it was time to burn off some energy on the dancefloor, with pupils in Years 3-8 enjoying their annual Christmas disco with plenty of festive hits on the playlist! #christmaslunch #schoolfood #prepschool #hertfordshire
