Welcome to Lyndhurst School

Headmaster’s Welcome
Lyndhurst, an independent day school for boys and girls aged 3-11, was founded in 1895 and is in the heart of Camberley.Β A small, friendly community, where we celebrate and nurture individuals.Β Β Β
We want to ensure that every child is listened to, fully supported, encouraged, given the opportunity to flourish and inspired to be the best they can be. We strive for academic excellence, with the foundation laid in Pre-School where curiosity and a love of learning begins. The children have fun through play at the same time as learning. Β
In our Pre-Prep and Prep School, the boys and girls are fully engaged and inspired in small classes led by fantastic teachers. We offer a truly all-round education and value all subject areas and skills equally. At Lyndhurst, all children take part. We want them to give their best in all that they do.
We have worked well with Lyndhurst School for well over a decade and recognise how well prepared the pupils who transition to Salesian College are. These young men have consistently demonstrated exceptional social and academic development in Lyndhurst, which has equipped them to adapt seamlessly to their new environment.
At Lyndhurst, they have been nurtured to become happy, well-rounded individuals. Their ability to integrate and thrive at Salesian College is a testament to the strong foundation laid during their primary years. These students not only excel academically but also embody the values of respect, resilience, and responsibility.

The pupils that have joined Luckley House from Lyndhurst School are a remarkable group, showcasing dedication and passion across a variety of activities. Several have demonstrated a strong commitment to the theatre arts, excelling in their work and pushing themselves to reach their full potential. Their ability to make new friends and contribute positively to the classroom environment is truly commendable.
Others, like one pupil involved in the CCF, have thrived through extracurricular experiences, displaying growth and enthusiasm in both expeditions and sports. Regularly representing the school in football, rugby, and cricket, these pupils develop valuable skills that benefit them not only in sports but also in their academic pursuits. Overall, they embody the spirit of dedication, teamwork, and excellence.

Endorsements from Parents
I consider putting my children into Lyndhurst as one of the best decisions I have ever made. The school is not elitist, genuinely takes children of all levels of ability, and then make it so no one sees the difference. All children are celebrated, all children achieve to their highest ability. The teachers there are the kind of people who genuinely love their jobs β everyone at the school is passionately committed to your children, led by an outstanding head master who is extremely involved with each child and values building emotional intelligence as highly as academic achievements. The range of subjects, activities and experience is unrivalled. All the children partake in sports, shows, play a musical instrument, the wrap around care is educational as well as fun. Neither of my children, have ever, in the last four years at Lyndhurst said they didnβt want to go to school today, I know that the start Lyndhurst has given them will set them up for life and as a parent I am eternally grateful.
Current Pre-Prep and Prep Parent
Our three-year-old has settled in wonderfully and loves the school. The teachers and assistants are well organised, friendly, and create an excellent learning environment. The schedules are varied with plenty of opportunities for outdoor playing and learning. My wife and I also love the proximity to the prep school and the interactions the nursery can have with bigger kids especially during after school. The 8am to 6pm care is very convenient for two working parents.
Pre-Reception Parent
A fantastic school! My son is now into his second year at Lyndhurst (reception) and it is one of the best decisions that we have made for him (and us). The school’s before and after care is second-to-none, and along with the wonderful teachers and staff means that my son very much enjoys his school day. His academic progress has been rapid, and he has access to a very wide variety of sports and extra-curricular activities. It has been an excellent choice of school.
At Lyndhurst, school truly feels like a home from home π‘π
Children feel safe, happy and known here. They build strong bonds with their teachers and classmates, and many genuinely donβt want to leave at the end of the day. Itβs a place where they feel confident to be themselves and are cared for like family.
With a strong sense of community, a warm and nurturing environment and wraparound care from 8am to 6pm, we support both children and their families every step of the way π

ποΈYear 6βs Epic Adventure in Elan Valley! π
Year 6 spent an unforgettable week surrounded by the breath-taking beauty of Elan Valley, with its towering mountains and peaceful shimmering lakes. The children tackled every challenge with enthusiasm hiking along winding trails that revealed stunning views at every turn. They worked together to build sturdy rafts then paddled across calm, clear waters, laughing and encouraging one another. Archery lessons tested their focus and precision while climbing high ropes pushed their courage and teamwork to new heights. Evenings were magical as they gathered around the campfire sharing stories and enjoying the warmth beneath a sky full of stars.
The whole week was filled with muddy boots, fresh air, new friendships, and moments of quiet awe inspired by the wild Welsh landscape. A huge thank you to the staff and instructors whose care and energy made the trip so special π Year 6 ended their time at Lyndhurst with an adventure that will stay with them forever β full of growth, laughter, and the joy of discovery π

Last week we welcomed pupils and parents to join us for a special Snack Taster Morning and what a fantastic start to the day it was.
Our dining area was filled with a colourful and tempting spread of healthy snacks. There was plenty of curiosity and second helpings but the clear winner of the morning was the blueberry muffins. They disappeared in record time and had everyone asking for the recipe.
It was wonderful to see both children and parents trying new things together sharing opinions and favourites and chatting about healthy habits. Events like this really highlight what makes Lyndhurst special not just our focus on wellbeing and nutrition but the strong supportive community that surrounds our school.
A big thank you to our amazing catering team for preparing such a delicious and inviting selection and to all the parents who came along. Your involvement made it even more enjoyable and meaningful for the children.
We are already looking forward to the next one and yes we will make extra muffins next time.
