Head’s Blog: Pause for Thought
I have recently swapped radio stations on my drive into school. This was entirely by accident as, one morning, I stumbled across Pause for Thought on Scott Mills’ BBC Radio 2 show. Now, as someone who usually uses the commute to rehearse the day’s to-do list in my head whilst simultaneously singing along (very loudly)…
Head’s Blog: All I Want For Christmas
As we approach the final days of term and winter settles gently over Edenhurst, I find myself rocking into the school carpark with the radio turned up just a little too loud, singing along (enthusiastically, if not always tunefully) to Christmas classics. This week, one song in particular has taken up residence in my head:…
Pre-Prep Pupils Shine in Christmas Nativity
Our Kindergarten and Reception children took centre stage in this year’s Nativity performance, in which they retold the Christmas story with joy, plenty of sparkle and some ad-libbing!

Working in groups, the children created their own French dialogue, writing questions and answers between a waiter and customers. They created orders, an amount for the bill and remembered their ‘mercis’ and…
Pupil Blog: Prep 4 Science Learning
Our topic in Science this term has been the digestive system. We have learnt the vocabulary for all the body parts in the digestive system and we have learnt the process of digestion in the body. Firstly, we chopped the food with a knife and fork to represent canines and incisors and then we mashed…
Prep 6 Visit the Dougie Mac Dementia Services
At Edenhurst, we are proud to support the Dougie Mac charity through fundraising at various school events. It was therefore delightful to be invited to spend a morning with members of the local community who benefit from Dougie Mac’s dementia services. The children in Prep 6 had a lovely morning interacting with those supported by…
