During the summer term, Year 5 demonstrated how much their scientific skills have grown by conducting independent investigations 🧑‍🔬🧪

They were challenged to design experiments that would produce data suitable for plotting in a graph. The experience gave our pupils the opportunity to apply everything they have learnt in their Science Skills lessons and encouraged them think critically and learn from any mistakes along the way.

There were some fantastic investigations on display. One group explored whether ice cubes melted at different rates depending on what was frozen inside them, while another investigated how much alkali was required to neutralise the pH of an acid.

More than 10 years after joining Embley Prep, our former Heads of School, Layla and Ollie, closed Speech Day with a heartfelt vote of thanks, reflecting on the friendships, opportunities and experiences that shaped their journey at Embley.

With characteristic humour, they even fondly recalled being crowned ‘Mum and Dad’ after a Year 6 residential – a title that has clearly stood the test of time and reflects the friendship and support they have shared throughout their Embley journey.

As they hand over to the next Heads of School team and prepare for exciting futures beyond Embley, we thank them for their outstanding service, dedication and leadership. They leave a legacy of kindness, integrity and commitment that embodies everything we value as a school.
