On Friday, our U13A girls travelled to Stamford School to take part in the @iapsuksport Netball Qualifier.
They faced some strong opposition throughout the day, but thanks to their hard work, teamwork, and determination, the team progressed all the way to the quarter-finals of the Cup. ...There, they met Bromsgrove School, who went on to become the overall tournament champions.
We are incredibly proud of the girls for reaching the quarter-finals and for playing with such enthusiasm and unity throughout the competition.

There were wonderful Chinese New Year celebrations in the Boarding House yesterday evening!
Many of our Beachburians enjoyed a fantastic cooking masterclass with Mr and Mrs Dowdeswell, Mrs Allen and Mrs Chung, who showed the children how to make delicious traditional dumplings.
It... was a fantastic experience that encouraged the children to develop their culinary skills, and perhaps even try a dish they hadn’t tasted before.
A big thank you to our lovely group of helpers and to the boarding team for organising such a memorable event! 🥟

We are incredibly proud of their performance yesterday, and they represented the school brilliantly. Congratulations!

This morning, our wonderful Food Tech teacher, Mrs Zimmermann, and former Beachburian, Jemma, kindly judged Club Chef 2026!
This year’s theme, Vegetables, inspired children from Reception to Form VIII to create delicious, vegetable‑based dishes. The judges were truly impressed by the ...culinary talent on display; from classic carrot cakes to carrot soufflés, and beautifully presented ratatouille to vibrant stuffed peppers, the range of recipes was fantastic to see (and taste!).
A huge well done to all of our young chefs for taking part in Club Chef this year.

In the TED Suite, our Form V children have been making their very own wooden catapults with the help of Mr Cowan, our Head of Technology.
Today, they put their creations to the test, launching bouncy balls at a target to measure the accuracy and effectiveness of their model. It was ...wonderful to see the children’s proud faces when they discovered their catapults worked brilliantly!
Well done, Form V.

Yesterday morning was a wonderful way to start the day, as we held the first Celebration Assembly of the term.
We are continually amazed by the children’s achievements beyond the classroom. From equestrian successes and discovering a flair for skiing, to drama performances and ...mathematics championships, it is always a joy to come together and celebrate their accomplishments.
We can’t wait to see what our Beachburians will achieve in the next half of term!
