School information
We are now entering a very exciting phase of development in the history of the school. New sporting and teaching facilities will be provided for our children who deserve only the best. Our pre prep site at Bevendean has been completely transformed following the completion of the new reception and Year 1 teaching block and surrounding interactive playground; improvements will continue during the summer holidays when the Bevendean main school building will undergo a complete refurbishment including the provision of a new ICT suite.
On the prep school site we are continuing to improve our sports facilities, following the completion of new netball courts and a fully furnished rowing suite, with the erection of a new cricket pavilion.
All our staff and children are also very much looking forward to the building of a new DT and Art block comprising 5 double-sized Art and DT rooms and no less than 8 additional classrooms, all equipped with the latest Promethean teaching technology. Work on this project begins in April 2008 with a completion time of 12 months.
Drama and music facilities will then be enhanced with a follow-on build of a two storey extension to the Stable Block.
Exciting times lie ahead as we strive to provide our children with only the most excellent of facilities and resources to enable them to get the very best education and life experience from their time at Danes Hill.
