KINDNESS
Kindness and respect are at the heart of all we do
We take pride in helping children grow into well-mannered, enthusiastic learners who are curious about the world and confident in who they are. We work closely with each child, nurturing their individual strengths, encouraging positivity, and helping them develop important social and emotional skills.
A really nurturing environment where the children learn primarily through play, with a gradual introduction of structure to prepare them for Reception.

ABOUT US
Guided by values, grounded in care
At the heart of HSA is a thriving, nurturing community where pupils grow into confident, well-rounded individuals
The school is based over two sites to cater to different stages of development. The Woodham Rise site houses the Nursery and Pre-Prep and from Year 3 onward, pupils attend Church Hill House.
From 2026 we are extending our provision into Years 9, 10 and 11.
The school’s ethos is rooted in strong values that ensure every child feels supported, celebrated, and inspired to develop a lifelong love of learning. Our five core values; endeavour, positivity, creativity, respect and kindness underpin every lesson, interaction and achievement from the moment your child joins HSA.
These values are brought to life through a rich academic curriculum, exciting co-curricular opportunities and a strong House system that promotes leadership, mentorship and belonging.
For parents wanting the personal touch, this school delivers
