We are thrilled to share that, thanks to our generous community, we raised a phenomenal £36,700 for a host of incredible charities throughout the 2024/25 academic year.
Our journey began with a heartwarming Charity Dog Show in support of @dogsforgood_uk, where we raised enough funds to ...sponsor our puppy-in-training, Connie, for her entire first year.
October brought kindness closer to home, as we stocked the shelves of @brackleyfoodbank and raised funds for B Yourself, a local mental health charity supporting young people in Brackley. Before the autumn term drew to a close, we baked, danced, and dressed up for @bbccin, while also gifting 82 festive shoeboxes to the @samaritanspurse appeal.
Spring saw hats held high during our Wear a Hat Day Parade, raising awareness and funds for @brain_tumour_research. In May, we proudly marked 80 years since VE Day, donning red, white and blue while donating our mufti day contributions to the @royalbritishlegion. Our young athletes also took on the Oundle School Triathlon, raising money for @restlessdevelopment with courage and enthusiasm.
Throughout it all, we remained committed to our main school charity, @marysmeals, through porridge assemblies, festive mufti days, our annual ‘Splashtastic’ pool party, and the unforgettable Carnival Camp Out in June. A special mention must also go to our Young Enterprise team, who poured creativity and hard work into crafting beautiful handmade gifts and organised inventive stalls to fundraise at every opportunity.
Thank you to each and every person who contributed—your compassion and commitment have made a lasting impact, and we are truly grateful to be part of such a remarkable community.

Speech Day 2025 was a heartwarming and joyful occasion that brought together the Beachborough community to celebrate the culmination of another remarkable school year. Under glorious sunshine and in high spirits, parents, pupils, staff, and special guests gathered to reflect, to recognise, and to ...bid fond farewells.
Mrs Mitchell set the tone with a moving speech that highlighted the importance of resilience, ambition, and compassion. We also heard from members of the Beachborough Friends, who offered heartfelt thanks to the parent committee for their tireless efforts and dedication. A highlight of the morning was the visit from Dogs for Good, who introduced us to our sponsored puppy, Connie. We were delighted to meet her, and the organisation’s speech provided insight into the life-changing impact these dogs have.
With deep appreciation, the community said goodbye to Mr Preece, Mrs Blithe, and Mr Usher—three treasured individuals whose contributions have helped shape the school into what is it today. Pupils from across the school were awarded prizes for excellence in academics, the arts, sport, leadership and boarding, and our new Head Beachburians for 2025/26 were announced. We thank Beth and Ben for being incredible leaders over the past year in their role as Head Beachburians.
We were also lucky enough to be joined by former professional footballer and GB Paralympian, Alistair Patrick-Heselton, who delivered an inspirational speech that captivated the audience. Alistair shared stories of perseverance, passion, and the power of belief—reminding everyone that setbacks can lead to greatness when met with courage.
Finally, we bid farewell to Form VIII who we will miss greatly, but we know they will thrive in their next adventure! Thank you to everybody who joined us; we're wishing you a wonderful summer.

As part of this year’s Enrichment Week theme, ‘Your Voice Matters’, the children wanted the chance to step into Mrs Mitchell’s shoes and become Head for the day.
After a winning speech, Dougy H in Form VII was elected to become Pupil Head, and today was the big day! As part of his ...headship, Dougy requested a whole-school Mufti Day, chose shortbread for a breaktime snack, and declared that we all had his favourite dessert at lunchtime – birdseed and custard (a unique Beachborough tradition!).
This afternoon, Dougy spent some time catching up with emails and making some important decisions in the Head’s Office, while Mrs Mitchell enjoyed some quiet time! Great job, Dougy.

Some of you may recognise Isla, as she was one of the wonderful pupil musicians who was chosen to perform at our recent alumni event on 21st June.
We are so pleased to announce that a HUGE congratulations is in order, as Isla passed her Grade 5 Theory with the ABRSM with a distinction –... the highest possible mark available!
The marks that Isla received are put down to her determination and enthusiasm for her art and we are extremely proud of her. Well done, Isla! ⭐
