Message from the Head

As we approach the final days of the academic year, the energy and spirit of Feltonfleet remain in full flow. This past fortnight has encapsulated so much of what makes this school such a special place for our pupils  from our youngest children learning to nurture their wellbeing to older pupils building confidence and independence on residential trips, and the joy of reconnecting with alumni.

In the Prep School, pupils in Years 3-8 returned from their residential adventures full of stories, laughter and sense of accomplishment. Whether coasteering, kayaking, fossil hunting, teambuilding or simply enjoying time away with their friends, each year group embraced their experiences with enthusiasm and courage. Meanwhile, closer to home, Year 1 delighted in their visit to RHS Wisley, taking in the natural world with curiosity and enthusiasm.

The end-of-term rhythm has been in full swing across the school. The Pre-Prep disco brought dancing and giggles, the Lower School Summer Concert showcased musical talent,, and the Year 6 public speaking event, was an excellent reminder of how far our pupils have come in both confidence and clarity of thought. Induction evenings and classroom visits have given many parents the chance to meet the teachers who will guide the next stage of their children’s journeys, and we have thoroughly enjoyed welcoming you into school.

We also had the pleasure of welcoming back the Class of 2020 for an alumni BBQ a special afternoon spent catching up with familiar faces as they reflect on their time at Feltonfleet and prepare to move into the next exciting chapters of university and beyond.

Our boarders, making the most of the light summer evenings, have filled the grounds with the sound of cricket, laughter and the occasional splash from a water fight. These have been moments of pure childhood joy that remind us why this final stretch of term is so treasured.

With one week to go, the calendar remains packed and the forecast promises summer sunshine. I look forward to seeing many of you at the upcoming events, including sports days, end-of-year celebrations and of course, our Prize Day & Graduation service on Saturday for all Year 5-8 pupils. It is shaping up to be a brilliant end to the year.
