Super Ski Trip
The end of term saw 31 of our children jet off to Italy for the annual ski trip to Sauze d’Oulx. Spirits were high, with eager skiers ready to hit the slopes. The group was a mix of experienced skiers looking to sharpen their skills, and complete beginners taking to the snow for the first time. The children quickly bonded with their ski instructors, admiring their skill and soaking up as much experience as they could. Each day was packed with progress, laughter, and happy moments on the mountain.
In the evenings, fun continued with a variety of activities, from quizzes to laser tag, bringing everyone together to round off the day. We hope the children came home full of stories with which regale their families.

Lunchtime Drum Concert
We enjoyed a wonderful lunchtime concert today with some of our talented drummers. Parents, peers and teachers gathered in the Music Classroom to listen to some of our young musicians, for some of whom it was their first performance, and for others it was their last. All performed admirably.

The Great Hedgehog Walk
Some of our Pre-Prep children have been taking part in The Hedgehog Walk to raise money for The Wildlife Trusts over the Easter holidays. A huge well done to those who took on the challenge of walking 3km; the same distance as a hedgehog can trundle in one night!

Headmaster’s Commendation
Well done to George Trehearne, who received a Headmaster's Commendation for demonstrating incredible kindness and support for a friend of his from his local village, who is currently undergoing chemotherapy. George raised money through a variety of activities including a homemade lemonade sale, and a trip to the barbers to have his head shaved.
Staff Spotlight

Our first Staff Spotlight of the Summer Term is on the lovely Mrs Danks.
What is your role at Beaudesert Park and how long have you worked here?
I am a Nursery Teaching Partner, and I also help in the Boarding House in the evenings. I'm currently in my 13th year at Beaudesert.
What is your favourite part of your job?
Being crazy with the children, working with Mrs Weinberger and being creative. Plus, watching the children progress through the School. I love spending time with our older children in the Boarding House, many of whom I looked after in the Nursery.
How many children do you think you have worked with through the Nursery?
Gosh, probably over 200 children. Even more, if you count the ones in the Boarding House!
How would you describe the children at Beaudesert Park?
Confident, bubbly and fun loving.
What kind of activities do you like to do with the Nursery children?
The muddier and messier the children get, the better! I love it when they start the year not wanting to get dirty, but we see their confidence grow and by the end of the year, they can't wait to get stuck in. We use splatter paint, mud, slime, shaving foam - all sorts! Once I made spaghetti covered in oil for the children to explore, but I used garlic oil by accident. The Nursery reeked of garlic for days!
Pre-Prep Report
What a joy to have the children back with us. It has been a fun-filled three days of learning here in Pre-Prep. Children have kick-started their new inquiry topics, engaging in science experiments, celebrating St George’s Day, and enjoying outside playtime together. Roll on Summer!
Anna Packman, Head of Pre-Prep
