🎬Keep your eyes peeled! 👀

Our brand-new films showcasing life in Heath Mount's Nursery and Pre-Prep are coming soon.

A huge thank you to talented filmmaker Jasper Koryczan (), who beautifully captured the joy, energy and curiosity that fill our youngest pupils' school days. ✨

The early years play a vital role in shaping a child's future, not only cognitive, but socially and emotionally too. We hope these films offer a glimpse into what makes Heath Mount such a special place to begin that journey, building strong foundations for lifelong learning and helping children grow into confident, resilient young people.

While most of us take time to relax over the summer holidays, Heath Mount pupil Tony, aged 12, took on the Three Peaks Challenge, climbing the highest mountains in Scotland, England and Wales: Ben Nevis (1,345m), Scafell Pike (978m) and Snowdon (1,085m). We were very proud to hear that he completed the challenge in 22hours and 43 minutes!

Tony's epic feat, in aid of , follows his previous challenges including a triathlon and scaling the Yorkshire 3 Peaks. So far he has raised over £1,500 to support neonatal charity Bliss.👏

He first climbed Ben Nevis at just 8 years old and has been an absolute inspiration to his peers and teachers with his feats of physical endurance and commitment to helping others.

Well done, Tony, we look forward to hearing all about your adventures at the start of Michaelmas term!

Heath Mount's Class of 26 are heading to 11 prestigious schools across the country. after achieving superb Common Entrance results. As one of the few truly independent prep schools in the country, our focus is entirely on what is best for each individual child rather than funnelling pupils into a particular senior school or meeting the priorities of a larger education group.

We offer parents genuinely impartial advice, tailor academics to a wide range of future schools and maintain our own distinctive ethos, culture, and pastoral approach. We also have the freedom to form broad relationships with many senior schools, ensuring that each pupil can progress to a destination that truly suits their personality, strengths, and aspirations.

Our final House event of the year, House Challenge, brought together all pupils from Years 2-8 for a morning of fun activities, putting their teamwork to the test. It was clear to see House spirit on display, with everyone encouraging one another in their House crews. Congratulations to Woodhall for winning the most points!💛

After adding up all the House Points from the academic year, however, it was Sacombe who won the coveted House Cup for 2025-2026! 🏆🩷

Well done to our House Captains for leading Hatfield, Knebworth, Sacombe and Woodhall and helping to build House loyalty and friendships across the year groups.

The annual parents versus Year 8 leavers cricket match was a brilliant event with plenty of smiles, cheers, ice cream and just enough competitive tension.

After an evening of heroic batting, dramatic fielding and at least one run-out that may still be under appeal, the parents somehow emerged victorious by 12 runs. The pupils were magnificent opponents and showed plenty of skill, spirit and restraint in not laughing too loudly at the adults’ running between the wickets.

Amid all the laughter there was certainly an emotional edge to watching them all play together one last time. 🥹
