This week, students across Years 3 - 6 competed fiercely to become multiplication table champions, recognised for speed and precision. They also participated in a group discussion on problem-solving, earning praise for excelling at the interactive exhibit. #prospecthouseschool

We are thrilled to announce a new partnership with The HMCK Charity to bring increased access to sport. This initiative offers a free after-school hockey club for 7 - 9 year olds at local state schools and the sessions will be led by our PE team with our Year 6 students. #phs

Nursery were inspired by 'Emma Jane's Aeroplane' to create masks for the Venetian masquerade last week. Mini hot air balloons provided much excitement with the pupils exploring which weights, when added to the basket, would bring the them down to the ground. #prospecthouseschool

Nine instrumentalists were recently invited to St John's School, Leatherhead for an afternoon of music-making. Joining with children from other schools, they made up a 50-strong orchestra practising two pieces before giving a performance to family and friends. #prospecthouseschool

To help combat the dreary weather and the dark mornings, today we wore lots of colour at school in honour of our annual 'Brighten Up Your Day' day. Here is looking forward to the drier, warmer months to come! #prospecthouseschool

Lots of prep school parents happily kick the 11+ down the road until it gets to Year 5, when they can no longer ignore the elephant in the room. See my blog prospecths.org.uk/surviving-the-… and discover why you need not fear the dreaded 11+. Prospect House Dukes Education

Nursery have been bringing the story of 'Whatever Next!' by Jill Murphy to life. They pretended to be Baby Bear, blasting off to the moon for a picnic in a cardboard rocket ship. To cap off the week, the children were amazed by a rocket experiment with vinegar and bicarb! #phs

Year 2 have been printing their 'Strawberry Thief' inspired design onto polystyrene before colouring in the pattern with felt pens and applying a spritz of water. The tile was then pressed onto paper several times to create Morris-style wallpaper! #prospecthouseschool

Year 5 are currently focussing on the skills of collaboration and working systematically in Problem-Solving Club. The children found the strategies of 'working backwards' and 'guess, check and improve' to be particularly useful in this session. #prospecthouseschool

Year 6 have had their first of four financial literacy workshops, provided by Tenent Financial Education, as part of the secondary transition. Session one focussed on budgeting and provided the opportunity for the children to plan their finances. The children really rose to the occasion!
