Big ideas, brilliant initiative and an astonishing £4,128 raised! Our Year 7 & 8 pupils wowed us with their creativity and entrepreneurial spirit at this year's Fun Day. Senior pupils had spent weeks dreaming up ideas and making products including upcycled scrunchies from school summer dresses and even a Skee-Ball machine crafted from cardboard. Others mastered the art of making fresh matcha or devised fun sports sessions including golf putting or even mini Sumo Wrestling contests. On the day itself, they worked tirelessly for four hours to attract customers and secure those all-important sales. The result? An incredible £4,128 for our Zambian charity projects and a wonderful demonstration of ingenuity and determination. Well done!

Huge congratulations to our U13 hockey girls who finished 2nd at the @iapsuksport Regional Qualifiers today after meeting a strong King's College team in the final. Their efforts have been rewarded with a place at the National Finals! "The girls were unbelievable and improved with each game," says Mrs Schilling. "They're such a joy and pleasure to coach!" This marks a historic moment for the girls who are the first ever Heath Mount hockey team to have made nationals in three consecutive years (6, 7 and 8). Congratulations to them and their coaches on this superb achievement and we wish them luck in their preparations for the finals. #hockey #iaps #regional #hertfordshire #privateschool #hertford #passionateaboutsport #sportingexcellence

Our Reception pupils re-enacted The Scarecrows Wedding in the beautiful autumnal sunshine yesterday, joined by their proud parents. Forest School leader Ranger Shenton brought Julia Donaldson's classic story to life, providing a woodland trail for the children to find bells, shells, feathers and flowers for the wedding of Betty O'Barley and Harry O'Hay. The joyful afternoon finished with a rousing rendition of 'I'm A Dingle Dangle Scarecrow!' A big thank you to Year 3 pupils who helped to make our two Heath Mount scarecrows! #BringingLearningToLife #juliadonaldson #scarecrows #wedding #forestschool #AutumnVibes #earlyyears #education #privateschool #hertfordshire #hertford

The children did a fantastic job of representing the school and welcoming our Open Morning visitors on Thursday! It was an ideal chance for prospective families to see the school in action and to get the inside track on life at Heath Mount from our Year 8 tour guides. Couldn't make it? We also offer private, weekday tours with the Headmaster on a date that suits you. Please call Louise, our Registrar, on 01920 832916 or email registrar@heathmount.org
