Wine Tasting
Join us for a wonderful evening designed to tickle your tastebuds, warm your palette and entertain your senses.
On Saturday, May 18th, we are organising a Wine Tasting Evening at Ann Et Vin, a team known for their many years of experience hosting tasting events and intimate soirees. To complement our Wine Tasting Evening, we have arranged a selection of warmed nibbles together with two live music sets from Samuel Jepson.
​
Bus Fundraising
Our current school bus, a reliable companion for our school community, now needs retirement. We aim to replace it over the 2024 summer holidays with a new one that all our teachers can drive, significantly enhancing our collective ability to support our students' extracurricular activities. Your contribution will directly impact the number and quality of activities our students can participate in fostering their holistic development.
Highfest is proudly sponsored by
Highfest 2024
Join us again this year for our annual summer festival, Highfest 2024. This year's theme is Summer Solstice.
​
The dates for Highfest this year are Saturday 15th and Sunday 16th June 2024. Please remember to save the date!
​
Tickets are only available online.
Highfest Glamping
If you'd like to make the most of Highfest 2024, why not bring along a tent so you can stay up late into the night singing songs around our campfire? Awaken, Sunday morning on Highfield's beautiful grounds to a delicious cooked breakfast?
For those of us without tents or campervans, or simply less keen to set up a tent, consider booking a glamping tent this year. Teepee Tent Hire has pulled together a package of different-sized glamping tents to suit your party size and budget. The full-service packages include the tent and bedding hire, together with set up and take down.
​
£10 from every reservation will be donated to Highfields School
If Highfest Glamping Village surpasses 10 tents, Teepee Tent Hire will provide their Lounge Canopy free of charge

Gift Aid Donations
A huge thank you to the Legdon, Fletcher and Hildyard families for their combined donations of £610 towards the costs of the Christmas Experience in 2023.
