Moving Up Day has arrived!
From meeting new teachers and friends to exploring different classrooms, there was plenty of excitement as our children spent the day in their new year groups. Looking ahead to September, children reflected on the qualities, strengths and interests that make them… who they are and the part they will play in their classes.
It was also a pleasure to welcome new families and boarders to the Highfield community!
Roll on September 🙌🏼

Today we marked Windrush Day, recognising the contributions and lasting legacy of the Windrush generation.
Our Year 5 children embraced the occasion by dressing in bright, vibrant colours, bringing a wonderful sense of joy across the school. We also enjoyed a fantastic Caribbean-inspired …lunch, thoughtfully prepared by our catering team.
Learning about the experiences and contributions of others helps our students develop a deeper understanding of the world around them and an appreciation of the diverse communities they are part of. These opportunities encourage them to learn from others, an important skill in building strong communities and future leaders.

“You’re as good as the person next to you” is an ethos that shapes many of the musical experiences we offer at Highfield.
There’s something special about making music alongside people who challenge and inspire you. That’s why we place …such value on opportunities for our students to collaborate with other ensembles and professional musicians.
Here’s a look back at our Family Film Music Concert at @stalbanshindhead, where the Highfield Orchestra joined Meridian Winds Concert Band for a performance of We Don’t Talk About Bruno, conducted by Marc Yarrow.

The value of a residential trip is not always found in the activities themselves, but in the moments that surround them.
