What we’re up to

There’s no telling which fascinating creepy crawlies you will find when you go on a minibeast hunt in the woods with Mr Baker during science. Just ask Year 3… #TogetherWeGrow #TogetherWeExplore #TogetherWeDiscover #OutdoorLearning #IndependentSchool #Liphook #Hampshire #Surrey #WestSussex

Warmest congratulations to our U11 boys, who won the Plate competition at the annual cricket festival at @tonbridge.school yesterday. Having lost out to @lancing_college in the Cup competition, the boys stormed back with superb wins against @hazelwoodschooloxted, @thomasslondondayschools and @skippershillschool to secure the prized silverware. Well played, boys! #TogetherWeGrow #TogetherWeCompete #TogetherWeSucceed #GrassrootsCricket #PrepSchoolSport #BoardingSchoolsInHampshire

Our children are such an inquisitive and imaginative bunch with an insatiable thirst for knowledge and discovery that even the most seemingly innocuous things can provide a real sense of joy, wonder and possibility. #TogetherWeGrow #TogetherWeExplore #TogetherWeDiscover #OutdoorLearning #IndependentSchool #Liphook #Hampshire #Surrey #WestSussex

As we count down to Saturday’s fundraising ball in support of the Highfield School Centenary Bursaries Fund, we’d like to say a heartfelt thank you to our amazing sponsors. #TogetherWeAchieve #Nursery #PrePrep #Prep #IndependentSchool #CoEdSchool #Liphook #Hampshire #Surrey #WestSussex @knightfrank @bii.aero @lapostollewinesuk @bradfield_college @bryanstonschool @canfordschool @charterhousesch @downe_house @hurst_college @marlboroughcollege @wellingtoncollege #ThermcoSystems

Our scenic and calming wellbeing garden has been embellished further thanks to the addition of two rustic oak benches which have been carved from two fallen oak trees on our estate. The green oasis stands on the site of the old pond next to the prep school science labs and offers another wonderful option for children to rest, reset and recharge during breaks in the school day. #TogetherWeGrow #TogetherWeRecharge #PastoralProvision #WellbeingGarden #BoardingSchoolsInHampshire #IndependentSchoolsInHampshire

Congratulations to our girls’ first XI who beat Farleigh on Saturday to progress to the semi-finals of the @iapsuksport U13 Girls’ Cricket Championship for the very first time. They will now compete in the last four of the national competition at Taunton School on June 16. Well done, girls! #TogetherWeGrow #TogetherWePlay #TogetherWeCompete #PrepSchoolSport #Teamwork #LeatherOnTheWillow #CountryPrepSchool #Cricket #CoEdSchool #Liphook #Hampshire #Surrey #WestSussex

The recent rain and spells of sunshine have really brought our newest wildflower areas to life. Now, we just need a concerted warm spell to attract all the busy pollinators which play a vital role in ensuring a healthy planet and a stable food supply. In the classroom, our pre-prep children have been busy learning all about the important role that bees play while the whole school has been involved in seeding wildflower areas around the grounds as we try to do our bit to protect the environment. #TogetherWeGrow #TogetherWeProtect #TogetherWeNurture #WildflowerPlanting #EnvironmentallyFriendly #ProtectingThePlanet #CountrySchoolsInHampshire

With a summer concert, HighFest, an informal concert at the Pre-Prep and cushion concerts still to come, it promises to be a busy end to a successful and fulfilling school year for our dedicated music teachers and their tuneful young charges. #TogetherWeGrow #TogetherWePerform #MusicConcerts #PerformingArts #IndependentSchoolsInHampshire #Liphook #Hampshire #Surrey #WestSussex

The sun and the rain has sparked some wonderful growth to add another level of calmness and serenity to our dedicated wellbeing garden. The revamped space on the site of the old pond next to the prep school science labs is the latest addition to our pastoral portfolio and offers a tranquil retreat where children are encouraged to relax, chat and connect with one another during breaktimes. #TogetherWeGrow #TogetherWeRecharge #TogetherWeCare #PastoralProvision #WellbeingGarden #Nursery #PrePrepSchool #PrepSchool #IndependentSchool

Our upper prep children have safely negotiated the first day of a busy week of exams. With four more days to go, we know the conscientious girls and boys have prepared well and can achieve anything that they set their minds too. #TogetherWeGrow #TogetherWeAchieve #ExamSeason #CountryBoardingSchoolsInHampshire #IndependentSchool #Liphook #PrepSchool #PrePrepSchool #Nursery #Liphook

The children on our Junior Cookery course whipped up a delicious Mexican feast today, guided by the brilliant cook Sophie Neish! They made Mexican corn salad with spicy beef mince, soft tortillas and finished with a tasty lemon drizzle cake. Along the way, they picked up valuable skills – cooking boosts maths and literacy, builds confidence and, most of all, it’s great fun! No wonder it’s such a popular holiday club. #HolidayClubs #LifeSkills #TogetherWeAchieve #Nursery #PrePrep #Prep #CoEdSchool #IndependentSchool #Liphook #Hampshire #Surrey #WestSussex

Our new library furniture has arrived! We’ve created a warm, cosy and inviting environment where children can curl up with a good book, encouraging them to pause, relax, and immerse themselves in reading. According to the @booktrust, reading not only supports academic development, but boosts mental wellbeing, speech and social skills, imagination, empathy and creativity. #Nursery #PrePrep #Prep #IndependentSchool #CoEdSchool #Liphook #Hampshire #Surrey #WestSussex

The boarders have had a jam-packed first half of the summer term, finishing on a high with an incredible talent contest! From singing and music to magic and dancing, they (along with the Boarding Team) gave it their all in a fun-filled showdown. What a talented bunch they are. #ILoveBoarding #TogetherWeInspire #CountryBoardingSchool #Nursery #PrePrep #Prep #CoEdSchool #IndependentSchool #Liphook #Hampshire #WestSussex #Surrey

The weather definitely did not stop play today at the Multi-Activities Club! Great fun has been had by all the children, and it’s been a jam-packed day full of zip-lining, sports, crafts and swimming. All the children got stuck in and had an amazing time from start to finish. Smiles all around! #MultiActivitiesClub #Nursery #PrePrep #Prep #CoEdSchool #IndependentSchool #HolidayClub #Liphook #Hampshire #Surrey #WestSussex

Yesterday, Year 7 visited the @the_globe and watched a one-of-a-kind performance of Romeo and Juliet, a classic Shakespearean text with a Wild West twist! Not only did they enjoy an incredible production, but they also explored this historic venue and even tried on some costumes. This inspiring trip ties into their current English text, King of Shadows by Susan Cooper. What a way to bring literature to life! #Shakespeare #GlobeTheatre #TogetherWeInspire #Nursery #PrePrep #Prep #CoEdIndependentSchool #Liphook #Hampshire #Surrey #WestSussex

After a busy morning of swimming with their parents watching on, our Nursery children were more than ready for a hearty lunch. Bangers and mash with lots of vegetables were perfect for hungry children and went down a treat! Lots of happy faces and full tummies – all thanks to our fabulous kitchen team for another delicious and nutritious meal. #TogetherWeGrow #Nursery #PrePrep #Prep #CoEdIndependentSchool #Liphook #Hampshire #Surrey #WestSussex.

We love hearing from our Old Highfieldians. Recently, we had the absolute pleasure of welcoming back Olivia, who was with us from 2006 to 2016 to hear about her journey since leaving Highfield and Brookham and the lasting friendships and memories she still treasures.  It’s something we hear time and time again from generations of leavers – there’s just something magical about the school and being part of the Highfield and Brookham community.   #HighfieldandBrookhamMagic #OldHighfieldians #HighfieldandBrookhamMemories #CoEdIndependentSchool #Nursery #PrePrep #Prep #Liphook #Hampshire #Surrey #WestSussex

We’ve had the pleasure of welcoming grannies, grandads, grandpas and nanas into school again this afternoon. The occasion was the second Grandparents’ Tea Party of the summer term, a special event which is much loved by both children and adults alike. After a leisurely tour of the school guided by their grandchildren, the grandparents are treated to a sumptuous tea laid on by our fabulous catering team before rounding off their stay with a wonderful concert in the Chapel. #TogetherWeGrow #GrandparentsTeaParty #AfternoonTea #IndependentSchoolsInHampshire #BoardingSchoolsInHampshire

Big congratulations to our boys’ 1st XI who have just reached the third round of the @iapsuksport U13 cricket competition with a thrilling two-wicket win over our visitors from @beaconschooluk. A low-scoring game was in the balance until the death before a boundary through midwicket in the 19th over sealed Highfield and Brookham’s place in the last 16, where we will face @caldicottschool from Buckinghamshire. #TogetherWeGrow #TogetherWeCompete #PrepSchoolCricket #PrepSchoolSport #IndependentSchoolsInHampshire #Liphook #WestSussex #Surrey

This Saturday, our Year 8 pupils will proudly present their IPQ projects to parents, staff and visiting senior school representatives. Each chose a question close to their heart, reflecting their passions and interests. The academic journey through defining the question, research, creating, reflecting and presenting has stretched them in every way. They’ve developed skills including independence, resilience, critical thinking, problem-solving and so much more. All great preparation for their next steps to senior school, we couldn’t be prouder of all they’ve achieved. @bedalesschool @canfordschool @charterhousesch @churchers1722 @cranleighschool @downe_house @seafordcollege @sherborneboys #TogetherWeLearn #TogetherWeAchieve #Nursery #PrePrep #Prep #CoEdIndependentSchool #Liphook #Hampshire #Surrey #WestSussex

You know the busy summer term is in full swing when the grounds team get to work painting the running lane lines ahead of Sports Day. June will see not one, not two but three sports days as the children from Nursery, Pre-prep and Prep each get their moment in the sporting spotlight, cheered on by friends and family. Sports Day is always such a wonderful occasion in the school calendar and one that fills us with immense pride as the children of all ages strive to give their best, win, lose or draw. #TogetherWeGrow #TogetherWeCompete #TogetherWeEncourage #SchoolSportsDay #CountryPrepSchoolsInHampshire

Musical marvels from Year 5 hit the right note today with a workshop dedicated to hit stage show Mary Poppins. Children from Highfield and Brookham were joined by pupils from @camelsdaleprimaryschool and Beacon Hill Community Primary School as part of a creative arts outreach programme; performing charming scenes from the enchanting tale of a magical nanny in London and super(califragilisticexpialidocious) songs. Bravo, children! #TogetherWeGrow #TogetherWePerform #StageShow #SchoolPerformingArts #MaryPoppins #IndependentSchoolsInHampshire

As we motor through the final term of another busy, productive and enriching school year, thoughts are already beginning to turn to the children moving up a year in September. To help prepare them for this exciting change, Year 3 today booked in for a lesson in the Prep school library and made full use of the comfy sofas and chairs, the colourful bean bags and, of course, the wonderful range of age-related reading material which is expertly managed by Dr Whitfield, our dedicated librarian. #TogetherWeGrow #TogetherWeLearn #TogetherWeProgress #WeLoveReading #LoveOfBooks #WeLoveOurLibraries #CountrySchoolsInHampshire #BoardingSchoolsInHampshire
