Ivy House School

Pupils have been learning all about Ancient Greece, and to aid in their discovery, we partnered with our local library to create a special display of objects tied to this period!🏺

🏃‍♂️ 13.1 miles. One amazing cause. Endless pride. 💛

A huge shoutout to our Mr Scott who smashed the London Half Marathon on 12th April, raising funds for GSCT — the Gold Standard Charitable Trust in support of Ivy House.

🏃‍♂️You ran with purpose and represented us brilliantly 🔥

11+ Offers Out 🎉👏

Heartfelt congratulations to all our Year 6 pupils who received senior school offers from top London schools! This year's stellar set of offers included 8 scholarships - what an achievement to be so proud of!

Mr Donal, Headteacher and Ms Raffaella, Deputy, said: "Congratulations to our amazing Year 6 on their 11+ results! Your courage, dedication, and determination have shone through every step of the way. You’ve worked incredibly hard, supported one another, and shown a level of commitment that makes us all proud. As C.S. Lewis reminds us, ‘There are far, far better things ahead than any we leave behind.’ Keep believing in yourselves — your journey is only just beginning.

A heartfelt thank you as well to our wonderful teachers, whose guidance, encouragement, and unwavering belief in each child have shaped this moment. Your passion and support have helped our children grow in confidence and rise to the challenge. These achievements belong to you too."

✨ Eight years old and already an author ✨

This incredible young girl, Dina, wrote her own anthology of poems, published her very first book, and sold it at school—all to raise money for Heath Hands . Talk about a powerhouse of creativity and kindness.

📚Dina’s anthology of poems has everything from tiny, thoughtful haiku to rhythmic rhyming verses and imaginative free‑verse pieces that spill straight from her heart. 💙

🎆 There’s something magical that happens when a child is encouraged to dream boldly. Behind every young achiever is an inspirational teacher who sees their spark and helps it grow. 🌱✨

Here’s to big hearts, brave ideas, and the teachers who make them possible. 💛📚
