Girls walking into school Beachborough Prep near Buckingham

News & Events

On Friday afternoon, we welcomed @akeleywoodschool and @winchesterhouseschool for a Pre-Prep 2 Multi Skills Sports Festival.

The children spent the afternoon working in mixed-school teams for a variety of fun activities. From javelin to football and hurdles to hockey, it gave the children... a great opportunity to build confidence and showcase the skills they have been developing in their PE lessons.

Our Form VIII Sports Captains and Club Captains played a vital role throughout the afternoon by leading the activities. Their leadership and enthusiasm set a great example and helped the event run as smoothly as possible.

A big thank you to all of the parents who came along to cheer from the sidelines - your support made the afternoon even more special!

During the Easter break, a group of Form V to VIII children travelled to La Plagne in the French Alps for the biennial ski trip! โ›ท๏ธ

Led by Mr Stoop and supported by a fantastic team of staff, the children embraced every opportunity on the slopes, developing their skiing skills with ...enthusiasm, resilience and plenty of smiles, both on and off the mountain.

We were thrilled to receive such positive feedback from the Ski Bound Representative, Joy, who shared that Beachborough Prep was among the very best she has had the pleasure of working with at the resort. We are super proud of the children for representing the school so fantastically, and can't wait for the next ski trip!

Today, some of our Form V pupils arrived at their maths lesson to discover that the Naughty Nought had been busy causing chaos in their classroom! The focus of the lesson was long multiplication, but their maths books had been hidden by the Naughty Nought himself, leaving the children with no ...option but to write directly on the tables instead.

A big well done to Mrs Grossโ€™s maths group for rising to the challenge and tackling complex long multiplication problems with impressive accuracy and neat presentation. Letโ€™s hope Mrs Gross manages to track down those missing maths books soon!

It has been a joy to welcome the children back after the Easter break today, and with the sunshine making a timely appearance, it has been lovely to watch our Beachburians enjoying the outdoors in their boiler suits once again, reconnecting with friends and staff.

The summer term is always... a highlight at Beachborough Prep, as it brings with it a plethora of fantastic events, activities and opportunities, both in and out of the classroom.

Here's to the final term of the academic year! ๐Ÿ˜Š

We were fortunate enough to receive the original Conditions of Sale for Westbury Manor, dating all the way back to 1931.

Included were several fascinating photographs showing the Manor House in its former life as a private family home. Many of the features are instantly recognisable today,... with the Old Library and main corridor remaining similar to how they appeared nearly a century ago. The dining room, however, has undergone quite a transformation and now serves as our administration offices!
