Perfect Imperfections

5th November 2021

Perfect imperfections Perfection is overrated! From a very young age we are encouraged to strive for perfection. Whilst this is not a bad thing, it can result in us missing out on the true beauty of the world in which we live. Make no mistake, I am all for being the best you can be…

Activity Day

15th October 2021

Reception, Form 1 &2 Last year’s restrictions meant that we were unable to have an activity day out of school so it was an amazing feeling to take pre-prep to Cannock Chase this year.  The children were excited to receive their Gruffalo Trail packs and eagerly set off on the trail. We all looked carefully…

The Importance of Role Models

8th October 2021

At Edenhurst we recognise the value of positive role models at all stages of a child’s life.  Thinking about this has led me to consider those role models who have had an impact on my life over the years and have led me to this point. I am lucky to have had two very different,…

The Importance of Being Eden

1st October 2021

The importance of being Eden Edenhurst has always been renowned for the way we prepare children for secondary schools. Over the past few weeks I have received wonderful feedback from the heads of senior schools now attended by our lovely Prep 6, the class of 2021. This is something that we perhaps take for granted…

End of term round up

8th July 2021

Summer Concert 2021   What a very special and emotional evening the Summer Concert was this year. After not being able to perform live for 18 months it was with great pleasure, and relief, that the Summer Concert was able to go ahead in a COVID safe environment. ( Thank you to Mrs Wardle and…

Fostering curiosity at Edenhurst

11th June 2021

Albert Einstein famously said: “I have no special talent. I am only passionately curious.” This resonates with our approach at Edenhurst. Any parent will know about that phase that their children go through, usually at age 2 or 3, when they ask “Why?” at least 100 times per day. Sadly, they outgrow this. Or do…

To plant a garden is to believe in tomorrow

13th May 2021

Throughout April the Little Learners have been very busy tending to the nursery garden. First the children helped to dig over the large planter and add more soil. Then we re-potted the smaller planters with flowers in. We talked about what the plants and flowers needed to grow and guessed how big they may be….

The Elephant in the room – Do people who run marathons know that they don’t have to?

28th April 2021

These words appeared in my social media feed: ‘Do people who run marathons know that they don’t have to?’. This obviously got me thinking. It will come as no surprise to you that I have a fondness for endurance events. It wasn’t always this way but it has grown as I have aged. Over the…

Meet Hayley, our new Baby Room Supervisor.

16th April 2021

When I was asked to take over leadership of the Baby Room at Edenhurst Nursery, I jumped at the chance. It was my role at my previous nursery and an age group I love to work with. I have worked with children from the ages of 3 months to 11 years and have been a…

End of Term Fun

1st April 2021

World Book Day 2021- a little different this time- like most things this past academic year! It was important to us as a school, however, to ensure that we still gave the children the opportunity to dress up and celebrate their favourite characters and celebrate the incredible love of reading that we have seen blossoming…
