Vita et Pax Preparatory School

Who says school can’t be fun? 🌊Ending the academic year not with a quiet exit, but with a magnificent splash. Our students traded uniforms for water blasters to celebrate the ultimate finale of the term. Making memories is always in style. 🖤Have a beautiful summer holiday, everyone.

🌵🎉 What an Incredible Summer Fayre! ☀️🎊
A huge thank you to everyone who joined us for our vibrant Mexican Fiesta Summer Fayre! It was a fantastic afternoon filled with laughter, community spirit and unforgettable memories.
From go-karts, bouncy castles, tombola, BBQ, henna, furry and scaly animal encounters, games, raffles, music, delicious food and so much more, there was something for everyone to enjoy. Seeing our school community come together made the day truly special.
A heartfelt thank you to our amazing PFA, whose hard work, dedication and countless hours of planning made this wonderful event possible. Your commitment to our school community is deeply appreciated.
We would also like to thank all of our parents, families, friends, volunteers and staff who attended, supported the event and helped create such a fantastic atmosphere. Your enthusiasm and generosity continue to make Vita et Pax such a special place.
Here’s to another memorable Summer Fayre and many more wonderful celebrations together! 💚💛

💚 A Powerful Lesson in Kindness, Courage and Hope 💚
Today, our Year 5 and Year 6 pupils had the privilege of welcoming Jimmy Mizen’s parents to Vita et Pax.
With incredible courage, they shared their family’s journey of loss, forgiveness and the remarkable power of choosing kindness in the face of adversity. Their moving message encouraged our pupils to reflect on compassion, resilience and the importance of making positive choices every day.
We extend our heartfelt thanks to our wonderful guest speakers for inspiring our school community and reminding us that even during life’s most difficult moments, hope and kindness can create lasting change.
We are also incredibly proud of Albert, whose outstanding fundraising efforts raised an amazing £2,500 for the Mizen Foundation. His compassion, generosity and commitment to helping others truly embody the values we strive to nurture at Vita et Pax.
Congratulations, Albert, and thank you to everyone who supported this incredible achievement. Together, we continue to build a community founded on kindness, respect and hope. 💚

A Story Told in 30 Seconds… A Memory That Will Last a Lifetime. ✨
From the first rehearsal to the final curtain call, our incredible Year 6 pupils brought Shrek the Musical to life with confidence, creativity and outstanding teamwork.
Every song, every scene and every smile reflected months of dedication, resilience and hard work. We couldn’t be prouder of everything they achieved on stage.
A huge thank you to our talented pupils, dedicated staff, supportive families and to Queenswood School for hosting this unforgettable production.
Here’s to the memories, the laughter and a performance we’ll never forget. 💚👏

The bags are packed, the excitement is building, and our Year 4 and 5 pupils are ready for their residential adventure!
Residential trips are about so much more than a few days away from home. They give children the opportunity to develop independence, build confidence, strengthen friendships, and create memories that will last a lifetime.
From trying new activities and stepping outside their comfort zones to learning important life skills and experiencing learning beyond the classroom, this adventure promises to be a truly valuable experience.
For many, it will be their first time spending several nights away from home – a special milestone that helps children grow in confidence and resilience while having lots of fun with their friends.
We can’t wait to hear all about their adventures when they return!
🌟 Have an amazing time, Year 4 and 5! 🌟
