As part of Roald Dahl Week in school, we were treated to an impromptu performance at lunchtime! 🎶

Yesterday, the staff at @Mowden_Hall were joined by members of the Harrison Foundation family and other generous donors for the official opening of the newly refurbished Harrison Theatre.

𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐫𝐞 𝐎𝐩𝐞𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 📷 Some more snaps as we officially unveiled the new Harrison Theatre Thank you to everyone who attended, including the Harrison Foundation family for cutting the ribbon ✂️, and to our wonderful Year 8 helpers for serving up some delicious canapés!

This lunchtime, we had a visit from The Enormous Crocodile to mark the end of Roald Dahl week 🐊 After causing havoc in the dining room, he was eventually captured in the kitchen and turned into a delicious cake, enjoyed by all! 🍰

At Mowden Hall, we are blessed to be surrounded by nature! 🌻 Pupils are encouraged to explore the outdoors as much as possible throughout the day. Here is a snap from Environment Club, with children enjoying some tree identification! 👀 🌳

Pupils in Year 3-5 are currently enjoying a lovely start to the week at Hawkhirst ☀️ They are enjoying activities including rock climbing 🧗, archery 🎯, bell boating 🚣‍♀️, zip wiring 🪖 and building campfires 🔥 The staff, on the other hand, are already in need of a break! 💤

Our U12A and B Rugby teams were in action at Dame Allan's yesterday afternoon 🏉

One of our key values is 𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐝𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬 🤗 It has been lovely to see our pupils return to school this year with kindness in abundance, from a child in Year 4 waiting every morning to meet one of our new pupils, to Year 2 'buddying' up with Nursery children at lunchtime

What a couple of days at Hawkhirst for Years 3-5! The weather was fantastic, and the activities even better. From climbing through trees 🌳🧗‍♀️ to gliding over the water 🚣‍♀️, they managed to squeeze so much into 3 days.

Good morning. We are enjoying the last of the sunshine left over from the Summer ☀️ New trees currently being planted to help our 52 acres of luscious grounds to continue to thrive! 🌳

In 3 weeks, we will be welcoming prospective parents to our Open Morning, to discover our wonderful school on a personal tour. 📅 Saturday 12 October ⏱️ 10am - 12pm 🏫 Mowden Hall School Booking is essential. Email [email protected] or call us on 01661 842147.

We are excited to be entering the Newton Scarecrow Trail as a school. Families are welcome to view the scarecrows tomorrow - please feel free to visit and vote for us! "Mr Twit" is making good progress - thank you Mrs Hadfield and pupils - and is awaiting his pitch location.

𝐑𝐞𝐝 𝐬𝐤𝐲 𝐚𝐭 𝐧𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭... Our Boarders have been enjoying the last of the sunshine this week, with lots of outdoor evening activities. And just look at that spectacular skyline! ☁️ ☀️

We had a great afternoon in the woods with our Pre Prep families 🌳🪵🔥 Lots more to follow, but we couldn't resist sharing this wonderful clay hedgehog! 🦔

Another fun-filled weekend for our Boarders, with a walk along the Newton Scarecrow Trail (and checking in on "Mr Twit"!), and an adventure up the Air Trail at Tees Barrage 🧗‍♀️

On 1 October, Russell Dean will be delivering an engaging and thought-provoking talk. If you are a parent keen on the Arts and would like to join us, please email Mr Brooks and confirm how many people will be attending (this event is suitable for children in Year 6 & above).

It was our 𝐉𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐨𝐫 & 𝐈𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐇𝐨𝐮𝐬𝐞 𝐂𝐫𝐨𝐬𝐬 𝐂𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐲 on Saturday 🏃 Well done to all who took part, with a special congratulations to Stephenson House for taking the victory 🏆

More photos and footage of our Boarders' trip to Air Trail at Teesside! A fantastic trip out, followed by the legendary Taskmaster Challenges upon their return to school!
