Less than 3 weeks to go until our annual Fun Day! All Heath Mount families and alumni are warmly encouraged to come along and enjoy an afternoon of live music, delicious food, games and brilliant inflatables as well as go-karting with our friends @letsleapholidaycamps. There's also the chance to be a nature detective with the team from @woodhallestate.uk and we'll be looking for some star bakers in our Heath Mount Bake Off tent. Alumni can purchase their entry wristbands in advance by emailing dumaurier@heathmount.org or on the day. Current parents will be able to purchase via Classlist shortly and we will also be selling tickets in the Heath Mount Cafe on selected days from next week. An enormous thank you to our amazing parents' association committee for all their hard work in the run-up to the big day, we can't wait! #heathmountfamily #community

We're delighted to have once again been recognised as one of the UK's leading prep schools in the latest Tatler Schools Guide. As Editor Tori Cadogan notes, choosing where to educate your child is "the most precious choice of all" and we couldn't agree more. Turn to page 107 to discover why Heath Mount continues to stand out, with Tatler's reviewers highlighting our commitment to every individual child, alongside the warm and welcoming atmosphere that makes our school so special. Next Open Morning: Thursday, 24th September, 9-11am (see in bio) #tatlerschoolsguide #tatlermagazine #topprepschools #hertfordshire #privateschool #hertford @tatlerschools

Some of our u11 girls were fortunate to enjoy a pre-season evening of hockey at the Olympic Park on Friday. Haileybury's Rob Schilling and the Haileybury Ist XI girls team (including former Heath Mount pupils Cate and Scarlett) delivered an inspiring coaching session before the girls played a number of mini matches on the Lee Valley main pitch. The team then got to watch a thrilling match between Haileybury 1st team and The Hockey Mentors! A big thank you to @haileyburysport for such a memorable experience and well done to the U11 girls for showing such focus and enthusiasm to learn new skills. Special thanks to Mandy Davies @daviesmd61 for the action shots!

Welcome back to Michaelmas Term 2026! And an especially warm welcome to our new starters and their parents who have officially started their Heath Mount journey with us today. We were proud to see our new Year 8s step up and join the welcome committee this morning, helping the younger children with their kit bags and showing them where to go. They did a great job of calming any first day nerves. Here's to a brilliant term ahead full of wonder, learning, friendship and fun. Let's go! #happyroots #aspecialplacetogrow #heathmountfamily #privateschool #hertford #backtoschool
