✨ A Spark of Curiosity at Our Year 7 Transition Day! ✨
Current Year 6 students joined our Senior School for a morning of hands-on science experiences that truly brought learning to life. From mastering microscopes to safely experimenting with Bunsen burners, curiosity was in full flame!
The highlight? A spectacular flame test experiment, where students explored how different chemicals create vibrant colours — before choosing their favourites to design the ultimate “firework”!
It was fantastic to see new friendships forming and confidence growing as students got a real taste of life at Quinton House. Thank you to Mrs Panesar and Miss Fillmore for a fantastic event.
Still considering your Year 7 place this September? We’d love to hear from you! Get in touch with our Admissions team or book a personal tour to see what makes our school such a special place to learn and thrive.

FOR STUDENTS BY STUDENTS 2026
The ethos of our For Students By Students conference has never altered; students across Northamptonshire coming together to discuss the topics that are important to them and the chance to hear from experts in their field.
Yesterday saw our Global Ambassadors host our 4th annual conference, this year with the focus being social media: the good, the bad and the dangerous.
Led by our Year 13 lead ambassadors Rosie, Louis and Yasmin, the students heard from a panel of experts, all bringing a wealth of knowledge from a wide breadth of experience when it comes to social media.
The guest speakers covered a range of subject matter from how social media can impact mental health, the world of scammers and exploitation to how to recognise fake news in a world of AI. There was however, also the balanced argument of the positive impact social media can have when building a successful multi million pound business, the power of connection for professionals and measures to protect ourselves to maintain a healthy balance.
The floor was then handed over to the attending students. A chance to ask their burning questions, addressing all angles of the argument.
We cannot thank our guest speakers enough for sharing their experiences with such honesty, openness and insight.
To all of the schools who attended, we truly couldn’t continue to build year on year without your engagement and support. Each question from the students was asked with thought and curiosity. Thank you to them for making the day the success it was.
To ours sponsors, your continued investment and commitment is truly valued. You are without doubt making a difference.
Finally, to our Global Ambassadors, you never fail to put 100% of effort and care into making these events happen, not just a success, but of true meaning for building the future. Well done!
Here’s to FSBS 2027!

Today saw our school come together once more, for our 1970’s themed fundraiser in support of @cynthiaspencercharity and in memory of our Head of Music, Miss Joanna Stone. A day of music, dancing and dress up, we know Miss Stone would have approved of.
We were honoured to welcome Miss Stone’s family into school for the unveiling of her memorial bench. A space for peace, reflection and maybe even a song or two. We cannot thank them enough for their time and for being a part of the day.
The day wouldn’t have happened without two of our Year 11 Performing Arts students, Millie H and Charlotte D. Their drive to honour Miss Stone in the most fitting way has seen our wonderful community raise over £1600 for a charity that held a very special place in Miss Stone’s heart.
We are very proud of you both.
If you would like to donate to this essential charity, head to our bio to follow Millie’s link.
The last photo shows the warmth that Miss Stone displayed and how she will be remembered.
