What an exciting first term it has been for the Laurel Education Trust!

It has been wonderful to see our two schools, Simon Balle All-through School and Mill Mead Primary School, working together. Throughout the term, our Music, Sport, and MFL departments have collaborated to deliver our core CELLS values: Collaboration, Excellence, Leadership, Learning, and Support.

As the term came to a close, our schools came together once again for a special event. Simon Balle Sixth Form organised a Santa Dash with Mill Mead students to support @hertsyounghomeless

We’re delighted to announce that, with your support, our schools raised over £600 for young people in need. We look forward to continuing our partnership in 2026.

Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
