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!

Today, our children in Nursery, Kindergarten, and Reception have been immersing themselves in Lunar New Year celebrations!
Themes of red and gold could be seen across the Early Years: from painting and decorating fans to making masks, creating a Chinese lantern collage, and using ...chopsticks, our youngest learners have had a wonderfully creative morning.
It was a great opportunity for the children to learn about the importance of Lunar New Year, as they explored the meaningful traditions celebrated across different cultures.

Our recent ISI inspection recognised these strengths in our children: their empathy, their understanding of the challenges others face, their appreciation of different perspectives, and the respectful, collaborative way they communicate and build relationships. These qualities support their future ...success and reflect the way our Beachburians represent the school so well, every single day.

Our Form VIII Sports Captains have settled into their roles exceptionally well, since being appointed in the autumn term.
Our Sports Captains play a vital role in helping to support and coach younger pupils, offering guidance, encouragement, and positive role modelling on and off the ...field.
So far this year, our Beachburians in Forms III–VIII have enjoyed developing their skills in rugby and hockey, and are now fully engaged in the netball and football seasons. Looking ahead to the summer term, we are excited for cricket, athletics and tennis, with our cross country, triathlon and equestrian captains also offering their support at the wide range of events scheduled throughout the year.
We look forward to seeing them continue to lead with enthusiasm throughout the remainder of the academic year, while building on their own leadership and teamwork skills.
