Huge congratulations to the seven pupils who have been awarded prestigious academic scholarships to their senior schools. The results mark our best ever number of academic scholarship awards! Awarding schools are @oundleschool, @thebishopsstortfordcollege, @haileyburyuk and @uppinghamschool. We are immensely proud of the way these Year 8 pupils have committed to their scholarship enrichment programme over the past 18 months. They have received specialist support from our Heads of Department in preparation for the rigorous examinations and we are grateful to those members of staff as well as the pupils' parents who have provided support at home.

One of our 12-year-old pupils is taking on three incredibly demanding physical challenges in aid of @blisscharity ! Tony, Year 7, is aiming to complete the Yorkshire Three Peaks in 12 hours this weekend, the 24 hour Three Peaks Challenge (Ben Nevis. Scafell Pike & Snowdon) in May and a triathlon in June. "I'm doing this to raise money for a neonatal charity Bliss, which is really important to me because I was born prematurely," he says. "When I was a baby, I needed special care, and the doctors and nurses helped me grow strong enough to take on challenges like this (even if my parents think I've gone a bit over the top!). Now I want to give something back and help other babies and families who need that same support. I'll be training hard (and probably complaining about it a bit), but I'm determined to finish - for a really good cause." We are so proud of Tony and wish him the best of luck as he tackles the summits of Pen-y-Ghent, Whernside & Ingleborough this weekend. He would greatly appreciate the Heath Mount community getting behind him, please visit his JustGiving page to donate. https://www.justgiving.com/page/silva-zenopian-yanouski-6?utm_medium=FR&utm_source=CL&utm_campaign=lc_frp_share_transaction_fundraiser_page_donation_received_-_nth_donation

Our Nursery pupils are an integral part of our buzzing and thriving Pre-Prep; enjoying use of the school's woodland setting and extensive facilities as well as taking part in a range of enriching workshops and whole school events. Head of Nursery, Mrs Dakakni, leads a warm and caring staff team. Together, they provide stimulating, imagination-filled days with plenty of fresh air and outdoor play, nutritious food and secure routines. The children also enjoy weekly Forest School sessions and specialist PE lessons. We were delighted to receive the following feedback on a recent new joiner survey: "I asked to speak with some of the teaching staff prior to making a decision and they made time to really understand what I was looking for in terms of approach. Mrs Dakakni is easily one of the most impressive early years practitioners I've spoken to I can say in all certainty that everything about the school has surpassed our expectations. We're so happy with our choice! " New Nursery Parent Want to know more about our Nursery and flexible sessions?
