At Kingshott, we pride ourselves on the strong links we have established with both local and national senior schools. In the summer of 2020 all of our children went to their senior schools of choice including 8 scholarships. https://t.co/tgKXpB50qK #PrepSchool #Hitchin https://t.co/mou9hPovx5

Technology is empowering but has its risks too. The Internet and other digital technologies are powerful tools. The links on our web page are some of the sites the children use, and are also to help parents, so we can all "Click clever and click safe". https://t.co/nSc1DdK0GL https://t.co/TAY4YgYlvr

Teaching all children to be sporting, not just those who are sporty, is one of our main aims. We believe that attitude towards sport is as important as ability within sport. #Kingshott #Hitchin #SchoolSports https://t.co/UfsF6GyK1R https://t.co/Q9Xs3LNzl7

Earlier in the year Mr Comerford challenged the children to make bug houses for the Nature Hangout. These are the first to be installed, they will make wonderful homes for some minibeasts 🐜🕷️🐞 #Kingshott #Hitchin #NatureGarden #EcoSchool https://t.co/9gjNAUPnmM

This little lost duck was found on the field. He is feeling sad and lost and needs to find his family. ❤️ Do you, or someone you know recognise him? If you do, please send us a message and we will reunite you. #Hitchin #LostDuck #Kingshott https://t.co/w2KH22l1P2

Year 6 took the opportunity to go out into the wooded area last week and set traps in order to hopefully catch some small woodland mammals for their Ecology topic. They used Longworth traps and caught one mouse! 🐁 He has been named Gerry and is now happily running free 💕 https://t.co/LrVJmTNDtt
