It's been an exciting month for @beachboroughprep as we have yet again, been shortlisted for an award!
The Independent Schools of the Year awards, hosted by @independentschoolparent and in conjunction with @schoolblazeruk, are designed to give independent schools an opportunity to ...celebrate and showcase their extraordinary achievements.
Our entry into the category of Best Use of Education Technology has shown that our innovative approach to technology in the classroom and our commitment to creating digitally literate, world-ready citizens, did not go unnoticed by the judging panel and we hope to make the list of finalists, which will be announced on 9th September 2025.
A huge thanks to Mrs Blithe who assisted in pulling together the content for our entry, which focussed on our access to the latest technology and our purposeful and pupil-centred approach to it rooted in accessibility, creativity and adaptability.

On Friday, our boarders enjoyed the last Friday night boarding party of the year!
The annual water fight and BBQ is a firm favourite in the boarding calendar, and the spirit of summer truly came alive as the school grounds were transformed into a splash zone. Armed with buckets, balloons ...and sponges, the children had fun-filled evening, full of laughter.
It was a brilliant blend of camaraderie, Beachborough tradition, and the perfect way to mark the end of the summer term.

Yesterday evening, we held the highly anticipated annual Beachborough Staff v Parents cricket match! ๐
Much to the dismay of the staff, the match concluded with the parents being crowned champions of 2025, however, most importantly, events like this are a fantastic way to strengthen ...community spirit within our school.
Bringing together staff and parents in a friendly, relaxed environment allows for everybody to connect outside of the classroom, share some friendly competition, and enjoy each otherโs company. We extend our thanks to the players and spectators who joined us yesterday!

On Sunday 29th June, our Beachborough Racing Team competed at Gathering of the Goblins at @goodwoodmotorcircuit for the 9th time.
The team have been training extremely hard for this event, and it certainly paid off! We are so pleased to share that, out of 85 cars, the team came 1st and 3rd... in the Pit Stop challenge (undefeated from last yearโs win), 2nd in the Chicane Sprint race, and 1st and 3rd in the Lap of Champions - an incredible achievement!
We're so proud of our Goblins, and extend our thanks to the wonderful team of parents and staff who support the children in the lead up to events like this.

The care doesn't stop when lessons end! ๐
Our Wraparound Care facility is a relaxed and calm atmosphere where children can extend the school day in a caring and comfortable environment. We ensure that every child feels supported, engaged and at home, whether it be calming down with... friends or getting stuck in with one of the many creative activities on offer.
In our latest blog post, our new Wraparound Care Assistant, Mrs Edwards, tells us all about what the children get up to in The Hub at the end of the school day. ๐๏ธ๐งฉ

We had a brilliant day on Friday 27th June, as Forms IIIโVIII took part in their Sports Day. From the offset, the children were bursting with energy, showing teamwork and spirit. From the sprints to the long jump, each event brought cheers and words of encouragement as everyone gave their best. ...Whether they were racing down the track, cheering on friends, or celebrating a win, our competitors demonstrated true camaraderie. A huge well done to our Beachburians who took part - you did your Clubs proud!

On Saturday 28th June, we held the bi-annual Charity Camp Out!
This year, the theme was Colourful Carnival, and Beachborough Prep transformed into a vibrant, atmospheric festival overnight, ready to welcome over 167 Beachborough families on Saturday afternoon.
It really was a ...day to remember, with stilt walkers, jugglers, a hula hoop artist, a bubbleologist, DJโs and live singers to keep us entertained throughout. We welcomed a mix of ex-Beachburians and professional performers, who took to the main stage, serving up a lively medley of genres. Our main act, @twistedtimemachine, took us on a journey through the decades, allowing our children and parents to dance to their heartโs content!
It wouldnโt be a carnival without family-run stalls, so a huge thank you to our Beachburians and their parents for providing some fantastic, fun-filled games for our festivalgoers to partake in, all in aid of raising money for our main school charity, @marysmeals.
Thank you to everybody who joined us; we hope you all had as much fun as we did! ๐ช

Last week, our Form VIII year group went on an exciting residential trip to Bude, as part of their post-exam programme.
The week was full of adventure, from setting up their own tents on arrival to toasting marshmallows around the campfire in the evening. Throughout the week, the children... put their balance and stamina to the test while surfing, paddle boarding and body boarding, further developing those all-important water skills.
On Wednesday afternoon, the children attended 'Beach School' where they took part in a beach clean, working together to collect litter and learning about the importance of keeping our coastal environments clean and safe for wildlife. The group also discovered how fragile ecosystems are formed and why they are so important to the local environment.
Picnics, BBQ's and pub dinners were enjoyed by all, and it was a spectacular way to end FVIIIs time at Beachborough Prep. Both children and staff left with unforgettable memories that they will certainly cherish forever.
