Our Form VI children have been working incredibly hard to create impressive cell models. From animal and red blood cells to plant and nerve cells, it was clear to see that they have absorbed everything they’ve been learning in recent science lessons.

This morning, they were proud to ...showcase their work to Mrs Mitchell, who was truly blown away by the children’s creativity, accuracy, and depth of knowledge.

Well done, Form VI!

Introducing Bertie! 🐾

We are so pleased to share that Mrs Mitchell’s Norfolk Terrier, Bertie, will soon be joining the Beachborough family as our new Wellbeing Dog. Bertie is currently working hard on his training to achieve his official qualifications, and once completed, he will be ...supporting our Beachburians alongside our Nurture and Wellbeing Practitioner, Mrs Crook.

Bertie will play an important role in promoting emotional wellbeing across the school, offering comfort and companionship to our Beachburians whenever it’s needed most.

On Friday, we were delighted to welcome @bloxhamschool's Head of Netball, Lisa Manning, and Strength and Conditioning Coach, Josh Sissons, to Beachborough.

Lisa and Josh delivered an engaging session for our Form V and Form VI girls, introducing resistance bands to help develop ...stability and improve landing technique. Josh focused on acceleration, power and agility, which is key for enhancing overall netball performance.

A huge thank you to both Lisa and Josh for sharing their expertise with us. We look forward to seeing the girls put their new skills into action during their upcoming fixtures.

It's Pyjamas and Pages Day in Nursery and Kindergarten!

The children (and staff!) arrived at school in their pyjamas and spent the day exploring the tale of Jack and the Beanstalk. During their adventure, they discovered a note from the hen, explaining that she had lost eight of her ...golden eggs and needed their help to find them.

After searching all around the school grounds, the children were delighted to track down every single egg and proudly return them to the grateful hen. Well done, NKg! 😊🥚

Following International Women’s Day, our U13 and U11 girls added another milestone to Beachborough’s sporting journey, as they travelled to Winchester House School for their first ever away rugby fixture.

For the U11s, the occasion was even more significant, as it marked the first U11 ...Beachborough Girls’ Rugby match in the school’s history. Their enthusiasm and determination shone throughout, laying a strong foundation for the girls who will follow in the years ahead.

With an impressive 20 U11 players in attendance, we were able to field two teams, which is clear evidence of the growing excitement around girls’ rugby. Their teamwork and confidence were outstanding, earning them a superb 14–9 victory.

Our U13s also gave everything against a very strong opposition. They showed real courage, commitment, and resilience, making excellent tackles and representing the school with pride.

We couldn't be prouder of our girls, and we extend a very special thank you to the @northamptonsaintscommunity coaches for their continued support in developing girls’ rugby at Beachborough.

It was an afternoon of light-hearted competitiveness, and full of camaraderie as the girls cheered on their teammates. It was also ...a wonderful chance for them to put their skills into action, learn from one another, and continue building their confidence on the pitch.

Well done, girls ⚽
