Together we grow
Highfield and Brookham is an independent Nursery, Pre-Prep and Prep School in Liphook for boys and girls aged 2-13, nestled on the leafy borders of Hampshire, West Sussex and Surrey.
As a family-owned school, we celebrate our genuine independence and prepare children for the leading boarding and top day schools. Not being answerable to a senior school or trust results in a strong sense of togetherness and a welcoming family feel. We work together with our children and their families to ensure the children receive the very best education possible. Our curriculum is rich and varied, providing balanced opportunities across a wide spectrum of extra-curricular, outdoor and outreach programmes.
Our awards
Scholarship success
We have a flawless record of securing entrance to a child’s chosen senior school, whether at 11+ or 13+. Our curriculum gives opportunities for all children to flourish and our scholarship success is evidence of our outstanding academic ambition. Our children have been awarded over 100 scholarships over the past six years to a diverse range of top senior schools, including Wellington College, Cranleigh School, Radley College, Marlborough College and Charterhouse and include a huge variety of scholarships ranging from academic and art to sports and music.
Extensive grounds
Situated in 175 acres of glorious natural grounds in the South Downs National Park, on the borders of Surrey, West Sussex and Hampshire, our beautiful estate provides not only a stunning backdrop for our Nursery, Pre-Prep and Prep, but importantly is a wonderful place for learning. We are committed to making the most of our amazing grounds, as well as protecting and enhancing them.

What we’re up to
It may have been grey, damp and cool, but some exciting action on the football and hockey pitches certainly warmed up the watching parents as we welcomed our friends from Twyford School, Hampshire for another entertaining afternoon of sport. Well played, everyone! #Nursery #PrePrepSchool #PrepSchool #IndependentSchool #PrivateSchool #BoardingSchool #Liphook #Hampshire #Surrey #WestSussex
Nurtured by specialist music teachers, our children have the opportunity to play a wide range of musical instruments from a very young age, including violin, piano, flute, drums, oboe and guitar. #Nursery #PrePrepSchool #PrepSchool #IndependentSchool #PrivateSchool #BoardingSchool #Liphook #Hampshire #Surrey #WestSussex #Music
The correlation between a healthy sleep regime and a healthy mind and body and increased performance in school came under scrutiny as our children marked Better Sleep Week. #Nursery #PrePrepSchool #PrepSchool #IndependentSchool #PrivateSchool #BoardingSchool #Liphook #Hampshire #Surrey #WestSussex #BetterSleepWeek

Our inquisitive young learners in Nursery have picked up where they left off before the half-term holiday; reading, being creative with pencils, pens and paintbrushes, role playing, doing puzzles, and generally having a wonderful time reunited with their friends. #Nursery #PrePrepSchool #PrepSchool #IndependentSchool #PrivateSchool #BoardingSchool #Liphook #Hampshire #Surrey #WestSussex #BackToSchool

Mastering the essential art of fire making on our bushcraft course this week. The team at @adventure_lifesigns has really inspired the children to develop a passion for the great outdoors and learn new bushcraft skills. #TogetherWeGrow #IndependentSchool #PrivateSchool #BoardingSchool #PrepSchool #PrePrepSchool #Nursery #Liphook #Hampshire #Surrey #WestSussex #bushcraft #holidaycamps #octoberhalfterm
There have been a lot of crafty goings on in the art room today as our children, under the expert eye of Mrs Walker, have discovered a real penchant for papercraft. Making bowls and mats through the medium of paper coiling and imaginative self-portraits using card, the children demonstrated creativity, patience, artistic flair and perseverance to produce the most amazing creations. #TogetherWeGrow #IndependentSchool #PrivateSchool #BoardingSchool #PrepSchool #PrePrepSchool #Nursery #Liphook #Hampshire #Surrey #WestSussex #HolidayActivities

The children thoroughly enjoyed cooking up their own lunch at cookery club this week. On the menu was a delicious Chinese Noodle Salad which involved the children snipping up lots of fresh vegetables and mixing in plenty of herbs and spices with some tasty hoisin sauce. #TogetherWeGrow #IndependentSchool #PrivateSchool #BoardingSchool #PrepSchool #PrePrepSchool #Nursery #Liphook #Hampshire #Surrey #WestSussex #halfterm #holidayclubs #cookery
Learning the essential skill of fire making was top of the list for the children on our bushcraft course this week. They busily gathered firewood from our woodland and learnt how to create a spark using a flint to light the fire. This three day course really helps children embrace everything that nature has to offer and develops a passion for the great outdoors.

Have our nursery children had a marvellous time at Mini Marvels this week? We certainly think so! With arts and crafts, forest walks, sports and swimming they have been such busy little bees learning and playing with their friends. #TogetherWeGrow #IndependentSchool #PrivateSchool #BoardingSchool #PrepSchool #PrePrepSchool #Nursery #Liphook #Hampshire #Surrey #WestSussex
The children on our multi-activities half term course are having an absolute blast this week! From action-packed mornings of sports and games to creative afternoons of Halloween-inspired arts and crafts, there’s been non-stop fun for everyone. #TogetherWeGrow #IndependentSchool #PrivateSchool #BoardingSchool #PrepSchool #PrePrepSchool #Nursery #Liphook #Hampshire #Surrey #WestSussex #halftermactivities
The young chefs on our half term cookery course have been busy whipping up some autumnal treats and today’s special was apple cake. With precise weighing, careful chopping and plenty of mixing, they baked their cakes to perfection. The kitchen was filled with the delicious aroma of freshly baked goodness. But the real question is… will there be any left to take home?
The children on our Multi-Activities holiday club have had an amazing time today exploring nature on a scavenger hunt in our beautiful woodland. They worked in teams, searching high and low for hidden treasures, discovering all kinds of natural wonders on their exciting adventure in the autumn sunshine.
Autumn is such an amazing time of year, with heavy overnight dew and golden leaves aplenty creating a wonderful natural panorama right outside our classroom windows. It’s also an incredibly busy time for Jasper, our Head of Grounds, and his dedicated team who have much to do before winter sets in. #TogetherWeGrow #IndependentSchool #PrivateSchool #BoardingSchool #PrepSchool #PrePrepSchool #Nursery #Liphook #Hampshire #Surrey #WestSussex #Nature #Autumn
