Congratulations to two of our pupils who have been awarded drama scholarships to @haileyburyuk and @uppinghamschool. They have both delighted their audiences on the Heath Mount stage (and even the West End!) and developed their character work over the last 18 months as members of our drama enrichment group. "All of our drama scholars have worked hard this year in preparation for their auditions," says Mrs Mann, Head of Drama. "I am incredibly proud of all they have achieved. We are now beginning rehearsals for their endofterm scholarship production, and we are excited to see the creativity, dedication, and talent our young actors will showcase. Their future in the performing arts looks very bright." Visit our state-of-the-art performing arts centre and find out more about our drama provision at our upcoming Open Morning on Friday, 8th May. Book your place via our website or call 01920 832916 to speak to Louise Cook, our Registrar. #performingarts #theatre #drama #scholarship #enrichment #privateschool #hertford

Sixteen of our academic scholars recently combined their brain-power at the national Da Vinci Decathlon at Ampleforth, achieving outstanding results. The annual event is designed to celebrate the academic gifts of students by providing a stimulating and challenging competition run in the spirit of an Olympic decathlon. We entered two teams, with one achieving 2nd place and the other 3rd out of 13 teams from across the UK. Between them, they won half of the challenge categories (cartography, maths, science, English and general knowledge). They were superb ambassadors for Heath Mount and should be very proud of their achievement. "The children did really well, pulling together in their teams and doing all of the collaborative, task sharing and skills division that is essential to doing well in this competition," says Mr Nightingale. "It was really super to see the way they worked together. Thank you to @ampleforth_college_ for being such generous and helpful hosts. #academic #achievement #enrichment #davinci #decathlon #scholarship
