What we’re up to
Some schools look right on paper and some feel right the moment you walk through the door. On Friday 20th March, we invite you to experience Highfield and Brookham for yourself. Meet our inspiring staff, tour the school with our pupils and discover a community where academic excellence sits alongside curiosity, kindness and confidence. You’ll know if it’s right, just by being here.

Our nursery chefs have been busy making flapjacks today but it’s not just about sweet treats. From listening carefully to instructions, working together as a team to practising, counting and measuring, cooking is a hands-on way to build confidence, focus and creativity. #TogetherWeGrow #IndependentSchool #PrivateSchool #BoardingSchool #PrepSchool #PrePrepSchool #Nursery #Liphook #Hampshire #Surrey #WestSussex #EYFS
Getting into character at Portsmouth Historic Dockyard, where history came alive for our Year 6s, through hands-on learning and imaginative exploration. Trips are such a vital part of our curriculum as they bring learning to life and broaden experiences beyond the classroom. #TogetherWeGrow #IndependentSchool #PrivateSchool #BoardingSchool #PrepSchool #PrePrepSchool #Nursery #Liphook #Hampshire #Surrey #WestSussex #year6 #schooltrip
Quiet curiosity in action. Our Year 6 pupils explored the Carpenter’s Cabin at @phdockyard — connecting with the skills, stories and lives of the past. Trips are a vital part of our curriculum as they bring learning to life and broaden experiences beyond the classroom through real-life exploration. #TogetherWeGrow #IndependentSchool #PrivateSchool #BoardingSchool #PrepSchool #PrePrepSchool #Nursery #Liphook #Hampshire #Surrey #WestSussex #year6 #schooltrip
Looking back at #2016 reminds us that while some things naturally change, the heart of life at Highfield and Brookham remains the same. Some residential trips are still much-loved favourites, others have evolved, sporting opportunities have changed and grown and our facilities have continued to develop — but our commitment to knowing, supporting and caring for every child remains exactly the same. Were you a pupil in 2016? We’d love you hear your memories. #TogetherWeGrow #IndependentSchool #PrivateSchool #BoardingSchool #PrepSchool #PrePrepSchool #Nursery #Liphook #Hampshire #Surrey #WestSussex

Year 3 explorers stepped into the world of the ancient Maya – complete with animal noses and mighty mouths – and discovered how masks, myths and rituals helped bring this remarkable civilisation to life. Such a great way for the children to understand what everyday life was like in the Mayan Civilisation. #TogetherWeGrow #IndependentSchool #PrivateSchool #BoardingSchool #PrepSchool #PrePrepSchool #Nursery #Liphook #Hampshire #Surrey #WestSussex #Year3 #History
In a fantastic workshop led by Portals To The Past, our Year 3 historians tried out a traditional Mayan-style board game, discovering how play was part of everyday life in this ancient civilisation – from strategy and teamwork to a little friendly competition. #TogetherWeGrow #IndependentSchool #PrivateSchool #BoardingSchool #PrepSchool #PrePrepSchool #Nursery #Liphook #Hampshire #Surrey #WestSussex #Year3 #History
Hands-on science magic in Year 4! Watching ice melt has never been so exciting – lots of big questions, brilliant predictions and even bigger smiles as the children explored heat, change and a little bit of wow-factor at the Bunsen burner. #TogetherWeGrow #IndependentSchool #PrivateSchool #BoardingSchool #PrepSchool #PrePrepSchool #Nursery #Liphook #Hampshire #Surrey #WestSussex #science #Year4
Curious minds are at work in Year 4. Concentration levels were high as our young scientists carefully observed ice melting over a Bunsen burner, testing predictions and working like real chemists in the lab. #TogetherWeGrow #IndependentSchool #PrivateSchool #BoardingSchool #PrepSchool #PrePrepSchool #Nursery #Liphook #Hampshire #Surrey #WestSussex #science #Year4

A hard-fought match for our boys’ 1st XI football team match today against a strong @daveniesschool side in the quarter final of the @isfafootball U13 Bowl competition. Sadly, the result didn’t go our way, but the boys certainly showed their grit, determination and teamwork as they battled hard until the final whistle. Well played all and good luck in the semis @daveniesschool. #TogetherWeGrow #TogetherWePlay #Teamwork #Nursery #PrePrep #Prep #CoEdSchool #IndependentSchool #Liphook #Hampshire #Surrey #WestSussex #football

How do bees make honey? What are their hives made of? These were just some of the questions our curious Year 1s explored today. The children learned from expert beekeeper Michelle Ernoult, who shared fascinating insights into the lives of these important pollinators and, best of all, they enjoyed a closer look at a real beehive and the essential equipment used by beekeepers — a wonderful hands-on learning experience. #TogetherWeGrow #IndependentSchool #PrivateSchool #BoardingSchool #PrepSchool #PrePrepSchool #Nursery #Liphook #Hampshire #Surrey #WestSussex #Bees
How do bees make honey? What are their hives made of? These were just some of the questions our inquisitive Year 1 children at Highfield and Brookham have been exploring. And what better way to find the answers than by learning from an expert?
