Somewhere Over the Rainbow…
…lies our Art building!
Art is at the heart of so much of what we do at Heathfield Knoll, both inside and outside the classroom. From dedicated art residentials to hands-on community projects, our pupils are constantly pushing their creative boundaries, developing their own style, and bringing brilliant ideas to life.
It’s a space where imaginations run wild, confidence grows, and every pupil gets the chance to express themselves — much like when we took part in the Wild in Art trail, which brought us our wonderful Heathfield Penguin!
And on that creative note, we’re thrilled to announce that after being successful in the 'Bunny Ballot', Heathfield Knoll will once again be partnering with St Richard’s Hospice for their 2027 Wild in Art trail, 'The Warrens of Worcester'! Our young artists are already buzzing with ideas to welcome our new bunny sculpture, and we can't wait to share the project with you all as it takes shape.
Watch this space!
(Thank you, Mr White, for the awesome photo!)
The Art provision at HKS is phenomenal.
A Golden Ticket day for our Junior School pupils today!
Class 4/5, Class 5 and Class 6 enjoyed a delicious day out at Cadbury World today, combining plenty of fun with their learning about the Aztecs.
The visit provided a great opportunity to explore the history of chocolate, from its origins with the Aztecs and their use of cacao, through to the chocolate we know and enjoy today. Pupils were able to make connections with their classroom learning while discovering more about how chocolate is produced.
Of course, there was plenty of fun along the way too — and perhaps a little chocolate sampling! What made the day even extra special was hearing from the team on site, with multiple Cadbury World staff commenting on how polite and well-mannered the children were throughout the day.
A fantastic day of learning, exploration, and outstanding representation for Heathfield Knoll!
RS & Preparation for Adulthood Outings
Pupils from Peake and MacArthur classes have been out and about expanding their horizons recently with two brilliant trips!
Today, they travelled into Birmingham to visit Singers Hill Synagogue — marking the first of three planned visits to places of worship for their Religious Studies unit on the three main monotheistic faiths. The staff couldn’t have been more accommodating, giving our pupils a warm welcome, answering their thoughtful questions, and helping them learn firsthand about Jewish traditions and heritage.
This follows on from their Preparation for Adulthood trip last week, where pupils visited Kidderminster Library and Tesco. From exploring local community services to browsing the aisles, managing choices, and navigating everyday spaces, it was a fantastic, hands-on opportunity to build real independence and confidence out in the local area.
A huge thank you to everyone at Singers Hill Synagogue for hosting us so brilliantly too!
Midlands ISA Football & Season Opening Hockey
It’s been a busy and exciting week on the sports fixtures list for Heathfield Knoll!
Our U16 footballers headed off to Dixie Grammar School for the Midlands ISA Football Tournament, giving it their all on the pitch, testing their skills against strong regional competition, and representing the school with fantastic team spirit throughout.
Meanwhile, back on home turf, our Year 5 and 6 hockey players kicked off the new season in style with a brilliant set of matches against Bowbrook House School. Showing great teamwork, sharp passing, and plenty of energy, they came away with outstanding 6-0 and 8-0 victories!
A huge well done to all our footballers and hockey players for their effort, determination, and great sportsmanship. A brilliant start to the season!
