Our intrepid quintet of charity runners have topped their £6,000 fundraising target ahead of Sunday’s London Landmarks Half-Marathon – but it’s not too late to swell the coffers of the Centenary Bursaries Fund further. Highfield and Brookham owner Bill Mills, Head Suzannah Cryer and Head of Pre-Prep Georgie will be joined by parents Sarah Bagshaw and Claire Kenwright for the 13.1-mile run around the streets of our nation’s capital, raising money to support our amazing bursaries programme, which offers a private education to children for whom it might otherwise be out of reach.

Whether they are in the classroom, the science lab, the music room, the DT block or on the sports pitches, our children are always learning – and that includes being outside in the playground. Our Pre-Prep children are blessed with a brilliant combination of green space and benefit-laden play equipment right outside their classrooms that they make full use of all year round, come rain or shine. There they can develop their gross motor skills and improve their balance, coordination and spatial awareness as they climb, swing, run and jump to their heart’s content, work on their teamwork, leadership and problem-solving skills to negotiate tricky obstacles, and interact with their peers, brush up on their social skills and form new friendships. Who says learning can’t be fun! #TogetherWeGrow #TogetherWeLearn #TogetherWePlay #OutdoorLearning #LearningThroughPlay #IndependentSchoolsInHampshire #CountrySchoolsInHampshire #Liphook #Hampshire #Surrey #WestSussex
Underscoring the immense value of school trips, inquisitive Year 4 ‘evacuees’ took a step back in time with a fascinating visit to wartime railway The Watercress Line to add a new dimension to their spring-term studies on the Second World War. #TogetherWeGrow #TogetherWeLearn #SchoolTrips #LearningOutsideTheClassroom #VoyageOfDiscovery #BoardingSchoolsInHampshire #CoeducationalSchoolsInHamsphire #CountrySchools #Liphook #Hampshire #Surrey #WestSussex
Whisper it quietly but it looks like spring has finally sprung. The longer days, rising temperatures and welcome sunshine have sparked a growing frenzy; the colourful daffodils are standing proud, the trees are in bud and the beds are shaping up beautifully. And the beauty of having 175 glorious acres at our disposal means we are lucky enough to have more seasonal splendour than most year round, something our pupils will take full advantage of as they take their learning outside, be it pond dipping in science, calm reading in the trees during English, art classes among the daffodils or drama rehearsals on Chapel Field after the Easter break. #TogetherWeGrow #TogetherWeLearn #OutdoorLearning #Spring #PrivateSchoolsInHampshire #Liphook #Hampshire #Surrey #WestSussex #TheGreatOutdoors
Last Friday’s House Shout was truly incredible and we wanted to share a few more highlights from the event. It took great courage for the children to get up on stage and represent their House. What a talented bunch. #TogetherWeGrow #BeCourageous #PrepSchool #IndependentSchool #CoedIndependentSchool #TeamWork
We’ve had a brilliant start to our packed Easter holiday activities programme, with our energetic children really making a splash! After a busy morning getting creative in the art room, playing fun team games in the sports hall and zipping around the adventure playground, the children on our ever-popular multi-activities course cooled off with a welcome dip in the swimming pool. To see what else we’ve got coming up in the next few weeks, visit highfieldandbrookham.co.uk/school-plus/holiday-activity-clubs #TogetherWeGrow #SchoolHolidayActivities #EasterHolidayFun #PrepSchoolsInHampshire #Liphook #Hampshire #Surrey #WestSussex
What a way to finish the spring term with our House Shout. The passion for each house was clear to see as all the performers gave their all and the whole school community supported and joined in. As always it was a very close call, with Trafalgar taking the cup this year. Well done everyone! #prepschool #preprepschool #independentschool #togetherwegrow #teamwork #community
What an amazingly busy, inspirational and uplifting spring term we have had. This week alone we have doffed our caps to our latest cup winners, witnessed the joy of Nursery’s Easter parade, waved off our Year 4 evacuees who headed to the Watercress Line and seen battle joined by Agincourt, Trafalgar and Waterloo in the House General Knowledge Quiz and the House Shout competitions. What a brilliant way for the children to head into the holiday break. Happy Easter, everyone! #TogetherWeGrow #SchoolsInHampshire #BoardingSchoolsInHampshire #HouseCompetitions #Liphook #Hampshire #Surrey #WestSussex
Displaying a broad knowledge of geography, history, maths, science, literature and sport, an impressive grasp of the world of art, the ability to think outside the box to tackle testing brain teasers and some amazing powers of observation, Agincourt today vanquished rivals Waterloo and Trafalgar to be crowned House General Knowledge Quiz champions for 2025. #TogetherWeGrow #TogetherWeCompete #PrepSchoolHouseCompetitions #GeneralKnowledgeQuiz #BoardingSchoolsInHampshire
We’re incredibly proud of our strong pastoral provision, which focuses on the emotional, physical and spiritual wellness of not only our children but our adult staff members too. So it’s wonderful to see our Wellbeing Garden shaping up so well, with the onset of spring and warmer weather promoting growth of beautiful plants and greenery. Once complete, we will have a wonderful tranquil and calming space for the entire school community to enjoy. #TogetherWeGrow #PastoralCare #WellbeingGarden #GoodMentalHealth #CoeducationalPrepSchoolsInHampshire
The onset of spring and the warmer weather has given our pre-prep children the perfect opportunity to explore the amazing variety of flora and fauna that the vast Highfield and Brookham estate has to offer. #TogetherWeGrow #TogetherWeExplore #TogetherWeLearn #OutdoorLearning #FloraAndFauna #BoardingSchoolsInHampshire
Our girls are so excited about the return of the cricket season after the Easter holidays that an impromptu series of friendly (yet competitive) matches broke out on the school pitches and the Astro during the lunch break. With that kind of commitment, we could be in for a very good season! #TogetherWeGrow #TogetherWeCompete #PrepSchoolSport #Cricket #SchoolsInHampshire
The final Cushion Concert of the spring term featured a range of wonderful performances, including solo and duet vocals, piano and guitar solos and some highly entertaining LAMDA performances. Cushion Concerts provide a fantastic opportunity for pupils to perform in front of their parents in a relaxed and supportive setting, creating truly magical moments for everyone. #TogetherWeGrow #IndependentSchool #PrivateSchool #PrepSchool #PrePrepSchool #Liphook #CreativeLearning #Surrey #Hampshire

For their final get-together before the Easter holidays, and hot on the heels of the amazing efforts of the Year 5 and Year 6 pupils in their production of Pride Rocks, the children in the prep-prep Theatre Club today put on a wonderful performance of their own featuring singing, dancing and choreography to the uplifting soundtrack of The Circle of Life. Bravo, children! #TogetherWeGrow #TheCircleOfLife #PrePrepTheatreClub #PerformingArts #IndependentSchoolsInHampshire #CountryEducation
Hats off to our lovely Nursery children who got the final week of the spring term off to the best possible start today with a wonderful Easter bonnet parade in our fabulous woodland. #TogetherWeGrow #EasterBonnetParade #SchoolsInHampshire #BoardingSchoolsInHampshire #Nursery #PrePrepSchool #PrepSchool #IndependentSchool
What an amazing week we’ve had on the theatrical stage. Our Year 5 and Year 6 children have excelled themselves with no less than six extraordinary performances of Pride Rocks. Under the direction of Mrs Baird, our exceptional Head of Drama, the children recited their lines, danced and sang with immense pride, passion and expertise, supporting each other every step of the way as the powerful tale unfolded. Grateful thanks to Aldro for providing the zebra and giraffe heads and Cranleigh School for supplying the stunning masks. #TogetherWeGrow #PrideRocks #SchoolsInHampshire #PerformingArts
Having performed in front of their upper prep school peers today, our Year 5 and Year 6 children are now halfway through the six scheduled performances of their spectacular, atmospheric and dramatic stage show, Pride Rocks. And the general consensus so far? It’s been a roaring success! #TogetherWeGrow #StageShow #MusicalTheatre #PrideRocks #PrepSchoolTheatre #PerformingArts #CoeducationalSchoolsInHampshire
Bubbles, bears, biscuits and books were the order of the day for our Nursery children today. The excited children took full advantage of the warmer weather and blue skies to head outside and have fun with their friends at a wonderful teddy bears’ picnic; chasing bubbles, eating tasty bear-shaped snacks and listening to Mrs Horn read captivating stories out in the fresh air. #TogetherWeGrow #TeddyBearsPicnic #OutdoorLearning #Books #TheGreatOutdoors #SchoolsInHampshire
The girls’ football season continued apace today with the visit of our friends from St. Edmund’s School, Surrey. Our U13, U12, U11 and U10 girls were in fine form under mercifully sunny skies, demonstrating just how much they have improved in the past month. The girls will wrap up their season against Aldro on Saturday before turning their attention to cricket after the Easter holiday. #TogetherWeGrow #TogetherWeCompete #TogetherWePlay #PrepSchoolSport #GirlsFootball #GrassrootsFootball #SchoolsInHampshire
From crime scene investigation to the benefits of healthy eating and from fascinating trips to the Science Museum and Natural History Museum, London to a feast of forensics, our inquisitive children immersed themselves fully in British Science Week. #TogetherWeGrow #Science #CrimeSceneInvestigation #STEM #WeLoveScience #SchoolsInHampshire #BoardingSchoolsInHampshire
