Welcome to
Simon Balle All-through School
It is a privilege to welcome you to Simon Balle All-through School. Our website is intended to be a window into the highest quality of education that we offer here, and to give you a sense of who we are and our shared vision and values.
We are proud of our all-through school: one school for students from the age of four all the way to eighteen. We are known for our high expectations, first class education and our innovative approach. Our curriculum is broad, and its progressive and sequential nature in every subject ensures that children are inspired and can successfully journey through fourteen years of learning with us. We believe that there is no tension between this academic ambition for all and a holistic education which supports every young person to develop their character and sense of self.

YEAR 13 SPORTS AFTERNOON
Following a focused day of revision and exam preparation, Year 13 students enjoyed an afternoon packed with races, relays and Primary School games as part of their Leavers celebrations.
From obstacle relays to the sack race, students threw themselves into every... activity with enthusiasm, laughter and plenty of competitive spirit. It was wonderful to see students enjoying time together and making even more memories during their final weeks as a Sixth Form cohort. A huge thank you to Mrs Ahmet for organising the event and Mrs Jones for giving out all the stickers students wore with pride.
The positivity and energy throughout the afternoon perfectly reflected this exceptional year group.

PROUD
Our Year 3 and 4 girls had a fantastic time taking part in the Hertford and Ware Schools Football Festival. Every player made an important contribution to the team and we could not be prouder of their efforts.
Their skills, determination and teamwork improved with every game, and... after a tense semi final that went to penalties, they secured a well deserved place in the final.
The final was a hard fought match with plenty of end to end action. Although we were defeated 4-2 by a very strong St Andrew’s side, the girls should be incredibly proud of their achievement.

PRESS START
with Simon Balle Music
Over 100 wind, brass and percussion musicians recently performed in "Press Start: A Symphonic Gaming Odyssey", our concert celebrating music from video games.
The Concert Band, Junior Wind Band, Saxidentals and Brass Ensemble ...delivered an outstanding performance in what was one of the most challenging concerts they have presented in many years. The programme featured music from Pokemon, World of Warcraft, Kingdom Hearts and Super Mario, to name just a few.
The musicians were exceptional throughout the evening. Highlights included Saxidentals performing alongside live gameplay during Coconut Mall, which brought great energy and fun to the concert while showcasing everything that Simon Balle Music can achieve.
With musicians ranging from Year 5 to Year 13, this concert reflected the strength of being an all-through school and the opportunities that creates for collaboration and progression.
Well done to everyone involved. Our next stop is Saffron Hall on Sunday 12 July.
