Midsummer Magic at Abbot’s Hill

We invite boys and girls currently in Reception, Year 1, 2 and 3 to to experience an exciting introduction to life in Prep School at Abbot’s Hill. Inspired by the magical world of A Midsummer Night’s Dream, this interactive afternoon will showcase the creativity, confidence and curiosity that lie at the heart of our Prep School.

Led by our specialist teachers, children, alongside their parents will take part in a range of hands-on activities, including creating enchanting fairy jars, exploring drama and performance, and bringing Shakespeare’s magical world to life through poetry. Along the way, they will work collaboratively, develop new skills, and discover exciting opportunities available across the Prep curriculum. 

Designed for Reception to Year 3 children who love to imagine, create and perform, Midsummer at Abbot’s Hill is the perfect opportunity to make new friends, meet our teachers, explore the Prep School and experience first-hand the energy, warmth and sense of adventure that make Abbot’s Hill such a special place to learn and grow. 

This event is on Saturday 20 June from 2.00 to 4.00pm.
At the end of the afternoon, join staff for afternoon tea,

What an incredible day celebrating the cultures, experiences and traditions that make our school community so unique.

Students immersed themselves in a range of exciting activities, including a vibrant dance workshop, a lively steel pans session, Around the World language bingo, and thought-provoking discussions in Stories Beyond the Stereotypes. We were also honoured to welcome keynote speaker Lola Jaye, who inspired students to celebrate identity, belonging and the power of storytelling.

Our cooking workshops were a huge success, with students preparing delicious dishes from around the world, including Filipino spring rolls and traditional Moroccan tagine. The celebrations continued with our Country Showcase, where classrooms were transformed through a fantastic door decorating competition highlighting countries from across the globe.

The day was a wonderful reminder that by celebrating our differences, we build a stronger, kinder and more vibrant community.

Belonging. Our voices. Our stories. Together.

Collaboration is at the heart of everything we do, so it’s especially meaningful to have been commended in the Independent Schools of the Year Awards for Outstanding Educational Partnerships.
 
This year, we’ve worked alongside local state and independent schools, charities, care homes and families to create meaningful opportunities that inspire, connect and make a lasting difference.
 
From welcoming over 600 children from 12 local schools to our free “Come and...” enrichment events, to supporting local primary schools through our pupil mentoring programme, volunteering in care homes, hosting community events and raising funds for charity, our pupils have embraced every opportunity to learn through service and collaboration.
 
These experiences don’t just benefit our partners, they help our pupils grow into confident, compassionate young people who understand the value of giving back and making a positive impact.
 
A huge thank you to our pupils, staff, partner schools, charities, families and the wider community. This recognition belongs to all of you, and we’re excited to continue building these partnerships in the years ahead.
