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.

SPONSORING A PERSONALISED BRICK
Community Contributions: Celebrating the Past; Building the Future

We would like to invite our community to be a lasting part of our school's legacy by sponsoring a personalised brick or purchasing a piece of sports equipment. Your support will help... us further invest in enhancing the experience for every student by allowing us to deliver the widest possible range of sports as part of the PE curriculum and a variety of exciting extracurricular and enrichment activities. This is a unique opportunity to leave your mark while directly contributing to the future of success in sport at our school.

We have priced the limited edition brick starting from just £35 in the hope that as many people as possible will be able to participate. You can buy dedicated bricks as an individual, family, team, group of friends or even a form. We are also hoping that some of our past staff and students would also like to contribute, so please spread the word.

All the bricks will be produced in clay with black engraving. A single brick can contain a maximum of two lines whilst a double brick has a maximum four lines. Each line has a maximum of 16 characters, including spaces and punctuation marks.

If you would like to name a brick and support the fundraising for the school, then please complete this Google Form. [LINK IN BIO]

WELLBEING WEEK
As part of our Wellbeing Week celebrations, students from Year 3 to Year 12 enjoyed a special opportunity on Wednesday to relax, connect, and have fun with their peers. The inflatable photo booth brought laughter and excitement to the all-through school. Students posed with ...friends and took home a printed photo strip—a tangible keepsake of a joyful moment.

The response from both students, staff and parents has been overwhelmingly positive. One parent shared, “My kids both loved it. What a great surprise!”

We’re so pleased to see the smiles and hear the stories from such a simple yet meaningful activity. These shared experiences help strengthen our school community and support student wellbeing in lasting ways.

COUNTY HOCKEY CHAMPIONS!
We couldn’t be prouder of our Year 5/6 hockey team, who represented Hertford and Ware brilliantly at the county finals yesterday!

Their hard work, resilience, and willingness to learn paid off as they grew stronger with every match - winning all 8 games and ...conceding just one goal.

TIMES TABLE ROCK STARS
A small group of Year 4 students enjoyed a well-deserved, Times Table Rock Stars themed, celebratory breakfast in recognition of their hard work and commitment to improving their multiplication skills.

Their dedication has been clear in their consistent ...attendance at early morning sessions, arriving at 8am three times a week. We wish them success during their multiplication tables check in early June.
