Events

This page records some of the activities which have taken place at Beaumont over the past year.

January 2020

Big Band Concert: 11.1.20

Each year, the Beaumont Big Band performs an evening concert to showcase their repertoire. This year, it was the 10th anniversary of this highly popular event and a sell-out audience was treated to a range of classics and favourites. Several alumni took part in the celebrations which raised money for the planned new Beaumont Arts Centre. Thanks go to the BSA who ran the catering and bar at this very successful fundraising event.

December 2019

Christmas Jumper Day: 13.12.19

The staff raise money for charity each year on Christmas Jumper Day. This year they raised money for Save The Children.

The Year 7 Science Club “Chemist-tree”

Each year, the Year 7 Science Club gets to explore some amazing chemical reactions to make a range of colours for the Science Department’s “Chemist-tree”.

BSA Christmas Fair: 7.12.19

Each year, parents, students and staff start off the Beaumont Christmas season with the BSA Christmas Fair. This event raises money to support the school through a range of stalls and activities. As well as putting the “fun” in fundraising, the students’ stalls also earn House points for their respective Houses. This event is one of the main ways in which the BSA raises money for the school each year and it shows the Beaumont community at its best.

This year, the fair raised over £5000!

Christmas Concert: 4.12.19

The Music Department’s Christmas Concert is one of the highlights of the end of Autumn Term. The stage is a full of performers as the Hall is with eager audience members and the various ensembles perform a wide repertoire of seasonal and other music.

November 2019

GCSE Presentation Evening: 19.11.19

Each year we celebrate the achievements of our former Year 11 cohort at the GCSE Presentation Evening.  Students (including those who have moved on to new post-16 educational settings) get together, with their parents looking on, to receive their exam certificates in a formal ceremony. Guest speakers, usually Beaumont alumni, make the presentations and a highlight of the evening is the awarding of trophies for Outstanding Academic Achievement, Contribution to the School, Contribution to the Community and the Headteacher’s Award; the latter nominated by the students themselves. This year’s guest speaker was alumna Anshula Bain who is currently working with other alumni on projects to support refugees in Hertfordshire and across the world.

October 2019

The Great Beaumont Inter-House Bake-Off 2019: 25.10 19

The Great Beaumont Inter-House Bake-Off has been one of the highlights of the House competition for several years. Students (with some help from home!) bake cakes based on their House names and colours. House points are awarded for the winning entries, judged by the Headteacher and members of the Art and the Technology Departments; and all entries are sold off to raise money for the school and for charities too. This year, the nominated charity is Breast Cancer Awareness.
