On World Mental Health Day, let’s all come together to talk about mental health and show everyone that mental health matters. Talking about our mental health can help us cope better with life’s ups and downs. So, on World Mental Health Day and beyond it, why not check in with your friends, family, peers, or colleagues?
Our well-being ambassadors are on duty everyday, to provide support and lend a friendly ear. Children can look out for the yellow hats if they feel they need to talk!💛💙

In celebration of Black History Month, we are thrilled to welcome the talented Monique Duncan @sweetpeabooks at Lady Barn tomorrow!
Monique will be sharing her inspiring story, “Freedom Braids,” with our Reception to Prep 6 children.
This beautifully illustrated book explores the powerful themes of legacy, love, and liberation, serving as a wonderful gateway to discussions about diversity and resilience – one of our core values.
Since many children enjoy wearing braids in their hair, we encourage them to embrace wearing them tomorrow to honour the spirit of the story.
📚 Don’t miss the chance to purchase your child’s copy of “Freedom Braids” via ScoPay before the event, as all books will be signed by Monique on the day!

6F enjoyed the magic of learning in nature this afternoon at Woodland School. Lady Barn’s Woodland School is more than just an outdoor classroom—it's where curiosity flourishes and creativity blossoms.
Founded by the visionary William Herford, a pioneer in education, Lady Barn’s ethos centres on his conviction that it is better to learn how to learn and how to think than to receive mere instruction. This principle continues to be the cornerstone at Lady Barn today.
Every adventure in the woods is an opportunity for our pupils to engage with their surroundings, collaborate with their peers, and develop critical thinking skills.
Come and visit us so we can show you how we nurture a love for learning that extends beyond the classroom! 💚
