The children asked an impressively challenging range of questions – from local traffic concerns, to national issues such as sugar in cereals and NHS waiting times, and on to global politics. Well done to all involved for such thoughtful and engaged discussion.

What a spectacular event it was, featuring incredible performances delivered with impressive skill and precision! Well done to all the pupils who performed and a big thank you to Mrs Carter and team for organising!

Thank you to all the staff and parents from schools across the South East who came to listen and contribute to a positive and valuable discussion.

In Nash House, our Nursery and Reception children sang and signed some lovely songs! Little Stream brought the spirit of autumn to their Harvest Festival assembly with joyful songs and poems about conkers, apples, and kindness. Meanwhile, Year 5 lifted everyone’s spirits in the Upper Prep and Senior School with a cheerful song celebrating all the food they are grateful for, which was enjoyed by all.

The wonderful display of everyone’s donations was truly heartwarming. All contributions went to the Trussell Trust’s food bank in Hawkhurst and our donation was the largest they received this year! Thank you to everyone who donated, and well done to the Little Stream School Council for helping load the van.

Candidates presented their manifestos to the Little Stream community and staff, outlining their ideas and aspirations. In the days leading up to the vote, pupils created posters, wristbands, and display boards to support their campaigns. On election day, excitement filled the School. Colourful, handmade posters decorated the corridors, each crafted by enthusiastic candidates eager to serve on the Little Stream School Council. It was a wonderful opportunity for pupils to experience the democratic process first-hand. Congratulations to the newly elected representatives; the spirit of democracy is truly alive and well in Little Stream.

Thanks to our partnership with the swim school, Puddle Ducks, we’re delighted that the children have already been enjoying this fantastic improvement, and we look forward to making the most of it in the year ahead. Our ambition is to have a roof over both swimming pools, and fundraising for the main pool roof will continue throughout this year.

Throughout the project, the children gained valuable hands-on learning experiences, from harvesting and production to marketing and sales. Most impressively, they raised £700 for Jamie’s Quest, a charity fundraising for lifesaving cancer treatment. And as a result of Year 4’s fantastic enterprise project, we are delighted to share that we have been Highly Commended in the Muddy Stilettos Best Schools Awards ‘Inventive Extra-curricular Programme’ category for 2025.

We are delighted to have appointed ten prefects for the academic year 2024/25. Each prefect has a very specific role with duties. Pupils needing support or guidance are encouraged to seek out the prefects who are now proudly wearing their prefect badges. They are very much here to help and support all pupils.
