About Prep at Westholme
In Prep, most lessons are delivered by the Class Teachers, although there is specialist teaching in IT, French, Music, Outdoor Learning and PE. All pupils study French throughout their time in the Prep and there is a high successful and popular biennial trip to France to develop language and learn about the culture. Prep 6 spend a day a week at Seniors using specialist facilities and helping to improve the transition for the move to Year 7.
There is real commitment to learning outside the classroom, with regular trips to places of educational interest to support the curriculum. An impressive range of co-curricular activities is also arranged for pupils. The programme changes termly but includes: string group, ballet, choir, cricket, cross country, drama, yoga, LAMDA, orchestra, recorder group, fencing, Art Club, dance, swimming, Scrabble club and woodwind group. Some of these sessions occur over the lunch break but most take place after school.
Pupils are given the opportunity to play in inter-school fixtures and all are welcome at training sessions. The main sports played are hockey, netball, rounders, rugby, football, cricket and athletics. The School is also very strong in swimming and cross country running, making full use of the excellent sporting facilities.
Culturally, Westholme is alive with a wide variety of music groups, choirs, playing and singing including a Prep orchestra; there are many opportunities for pupils to perform in concerts and at festivals. The School's impressive professional theatre is used by the Prep for all performing arts.
