Our vision is to be a school that challenges, develops and nurtures every child, where every child is free to be themselves. We constantly strive to change and to improve, to deliver a modern education that prepares our children for an exciting future, encouraging them to aim high and dream big.
The Life Skills curriculum at Banstead Prep provides children with an opportunity to practise and develop important, transferable life skills. These directly relate to the BPS Learner Powers: Collaboration, Leadership, Independence, Curiosity, Adaptability, Communication, Resilience, and Pride. Through a carefully curated range of exciting lessons and activities, children in Years 3 – 6 develop their ‘learner powers’; these include but are not limited to, design challenges, critical thinking activities, debates, money skills, first aid, and cookery.
The day began with a hearty breakfast to fuel their forest adventure — and what an adventure it was!
The children threw themselves into the muddiest of mornings, splashing their way through 300 acres of forest. From Gladiators to archery and climbing towers, every activity challenged them to discover new skills and hidden strengths.
Such an amazing day of resilience, laughter, and letting their adventurous spirits soar!
After settling in, the first challenge was… making their own beds! 🛏️ The afternoon was full of energy with team-building tasks and exciting activities, where the children showed fantastic confidence and resilience.
They ended the day on a lovely note, winding down around the campfire with songs and toasted marshmallows. 🔥🍡
