The Henrietta Barnett School

the henrietta barnett school

London

The Henrietta Barnett School (HBS) is a non-denominational grammar school for girls aged 11-18. We became an Academy in April 2012. Founded in 1911 and situated in the peaceful surroundings of the Hampstead Garden Suburb, the school is a charming Lutyens-designed Grade II* Listed Building. HBS is a warm, friendly and vibrant community that prides itself on happy and productive relationships. We are consistently one of the top state schools in the country and have an exemplary local and national reputation for academic excellence. Dame Henrietta Barnett strongly believed in the power of education to shape people’s lives and founded the School to provide educational opportunities of the highest quality for its students. She built the School on the principle that education should be open to girls from different backgrounds to study and learn together and from each other. This principle is alive and well at HBS. We provide a broad education that is ambitious, varied and stimulating. Academic excellence and a wide range of extra-curricular and enrichment opportunities are offered in an open, caring and supportive environment, enabling each individual to thrive and achieve her potential. We are committed to developing the whole person, encouraging students to explore their interests in a wide variety of ways and promoting curiosity of mind, independence of spirit and a love of learning. In a culture of respect for others but without the need for bells or lists of imposed rules, HBS students are driven by self-motivation, self-discipline and a common purpose, a thirst for learning and a strong sense of pride in belonging to the diverse, inclusive, high-performing, friendly and supportive school community. They leave HBS full of integrity and ambition, ready and equipped to make a positive contribution to society, with the world at their fingertips. This website will enable you to discover more about the School, but none of this replaces an experience of the School itself. Over recent years we have completed ambitious refurbishment and new build projects, including the complete refurbishment of the Queen Mary Science Wing involving the replacement of 6 outdated labs with 8 contemporary ones and the opening of two new state-of-the-art buildings that house a new Music and Drama School and an Art and Design & Technology Centre, with a Mac Suite and Cafe. Our most recent development is the extension and refurbishment of our Library, which is now an inspirational space, fit for purpose and loved by all.

Every Day A Mindful Day

every day a mindful day

London

Well-being in schools and colleges Would you like to bring mindfulness (and yoga) to your students? Whether they are experiencing exam stress, difficulty in settling in or need to improve their attention and focus, we have a programme to offer you. Perhaps you might want to consider mindfulness as an alternative to detention, offer it as a lunchtime or afterschool club or as part of your PE or PSD provision? Maybe your school’s/college’s teaching and support staff could benefit from relaxation practices and learning how to find more space in their days? Or you could be a group of parents who are home schooling and would like access to mindfulness to help build resilience and confidence. Lydia has 16 years’ experience of teaching in state schools in the Buckinghamshire area and understands the issues facing students, teachers and parents. She can offer a range of programmes for all Key Stages, INSET training or taster sessions, online or in-person. Well-being for people with limited mobility Do you know an individual or a group who could benefit from yoga or meditation? Lydia has recently qualified as a Lakshmi Voelker Chair Yoga teacher and can design and deliver classes for seniors, people in wheelchairs, people with dementia and anyone who finds it difficult to do yoga on a mat. All the benefits of yoga can be made accessible to anyone, this includes: range of physical movement; cognitive ability; bone density; muscle strength; managing stress and anxiety; better sleep and improved confidence and self-esteem. We are happy to travel to care homes, communities or rehabilitation facilitates etc. Or we can offer on-line sessions. Well-being in corporate settings Research by the HSE suggests that stress, depression and anxiety generate around 17.9 million sick days in the UK each year. Eighty-three percent of businesses report people turning up to work who are not well enough to be productive and this costs the UK businesses about £15.1 billion each year (Mind, 2011). Almost half of the UK’s workers report that they have considered leaving a job because of the stress levels with 60% saying they would be more motivated if employers took action to support their mental health and well-being (Mind, 2013 & 2020). Lydia and Doug both teach chair yoga, a form of yoga that can be done at a desk and is specifically designed to target the physical stresses of sitting all day. We are also both trained in teaching a range of mindfulness practices to adults and younger people. We would be happy to discuss a programme to suit your company’s needs that could be delivered in-person or online. Contact us today and begin a discussion that could change lives.

IHA Rent

Furnished houses have become an increasingly popular choice for many renters, offering a range of benefits that cater to various lifestyles. Whether you're a professional, a student, or someone who frequently relocates, furnished homes provide a level of convenience and comfort that is hard to beat. Let's delve into the reasons why furnished houses are the best option for modern living. CONVENIENCE AND EASE OF MOVING READY-TO-MOVE-IN One of the primary advantages of Furnished Houses In Lahore [https://iharent.com/] is the immediate readiness for occupancy. You don't have to worry about the time-consuming and often stressful process of buying, transporting, and arranging furniture. Everything you need is already in place, allowing you to move in and start living right away. HASSLE-FREE SETUP Setting up a new home can be daunting, especially if you have to start from scratch. Furnished houses eliminate this hassle by providing all the necessary furniture and appliances. This ease of setup means you can focus on other important aspects of your move, such as adjusting to a new job or school. COST EFFICIENCY NO FURNITURE PURCHASE REQUIRED Furnishing a home can be a significant financial burden. By choosing a furnished house, you save a considerable amount of money that would otherwise be spent on purchasing furniture and household items. This cost-saving is particularly beneficial for short-term renters or those who frequently relocate. REDUCED MOVING COSTS Moving furniture can be expensive, especially if you have to hire professional movers or rent a truck. Furnished homes negate this cost, as you only need to transport your personal belongings. This reduction in moving expenses makes furnished houses a more economical choice. FLEXIBLE LEASE TERMS Many furnished rentals offer flexible lease terms, catering to both short-term and long-term stays. This flexibility is ideal for people with unpredictable schedules, such as corporate professionals, interns, or travelers, allowing them to find accommodation that fits their needs without being locked into lengthy contracts. TIME-SAVING NO TIME SPENT ON FURNITURE SHOPPING Finding the right furniture can be a time-consuming process, involving numerous trips to stores and hours spent online searching for the perfect pieces. Furnished houses save you this time by providing a fully equipped living space, so you can spend your time on more enjoyable or productive activities. QUICK AND EASY SETUP The immediate availability of a furnished home means you can set up your new living space in no time. There's no need to wait for furniture deliveries or spend weekends assembling flat-pack furniture. You can simply move in, unpack your clothes and personal items, and start enjoying your new home. PROFESSIONAL AND STYLISH INTERIORS EXPERTLY DECORATED SPACES Furnished houses are often professionally decorated, ensuring that the interior design is both functional and aesthetically pleasing. This professional touch can make your living environment more comfortable and enjoyable, providing a home that feels well put together and inviting. CONSISTENT STYLE AND QUALITY With a furnished home, you can expect a consistent style throughout the house, with furniture and decor that complement each other. This consistency creates a harmonious living space that is both attractive and comfortable. Additionally, furnished rentals often feature higher quality furniture than what you might purchase on a budget, enhancing your living experience. IDEAL FOR VARIOUS LIFESTYLES PERFECT FOR PROFESSIONALS For corporate professionals or those relocating for work, furnished houses offer a hassle-free solution. The ability to move into a fully equipped home means you can focus on your job without the distraction of setting up a new household. This ease of transition is particularly beneficial for busy professionals who need to hit the ground running in their new location. STUDENT-FRIENDLY OPTIONS International students or those studying far from home can greatly benefit from furnished rentals. These homes provide all the essentials, making it easier for students to settle in quickly and focus on their studies. The availability of study desks, comfortable living areas, and essential appliances creates a conducive environment for academic success. SUITABLE FOR FREQUENT MOVERS For individuals who move frequently, such as military personnel, consultants, or digital nomads, furnished houses offer unmatched convenience. The ability to relocate without the burden of moving furniture simplifies the process, allowing for a smoother and less stressful transition between homes. MINIMAL MAINTENANCE AND RESPONSIBILITIES LANDLORD TAKES CARE OF REPAIRS In a furnished rental, the landlord typically takes responsibility for maintaining the furniture and appliances provided. This arrangement means that if anything breaks or needs repair, it's not your financial or logistical burden to bear. This reduced responsibility can be a significant relief, especially for busy individuals. LESS WEAR AND TEAR Furnished homes often experience less wear and tear on personal belongings since the provided furniture is designed for durability. Additionally, tenants are less likely to use their own furniture, reducing the chances of damage during moves. This preservation of personal items can be a considerable advantage over time. ENHANCED SECURITY AND AMENITIES SECURE BUILDINGS Furnished rentals are frequently located in secure buildings with additional safety features such as security cameras, gated entries, and on-site security personnel. This enhanced security provides peace of mind for tenants, knowing that their home and belongings are well-protected. ACCESS TO AMENITIES Many Furnished Houses In Paragon City [https://iharent.com/places/house-no-638-woods-block-5-marla-3-beds-paragon-city-lahore/] rentals come with access to shared amenities like gyms, swimming pools, and communal lounges. These facilities can enhance your living experience, providing opportunities for recreation, fitness, and socializing without the need to leave your building. ENVIRONMENTAL BENEFITS REDUCED WASTE Choosing a furnished home can be an environmentally friendly decision. By utilizing the existing furniture and appliances, you reduce the demand for new products, which in turn decreases waste and conserves resources. This sustainable living choice can have a positive impact on the environment. LOWER CARBON FOOTPRINT The process of manufacturing, transporting, and disposing of furniture contributes to carbon emissions. By living in a furnished home, you reduce the need for these activities, thereby lowering your overall carbon footprint. This eco-conscious decision supports a more sustainable lifestyle. FLEXIBILITY IN PERSONALIZATION ADDING PERSONAL TOUCHES While furnished homes come equipped with essential items, they still offer the flexibility to personalize the space. You can add your own decorative touches, such as artwork, cushions, and plants, to make the home feel uniquely yours without the need for permanent changes. TEMPORARY YET CUSTOMIZABLE Furnished homes provide a great balance between temporary living and personalization. You can enjoy the convenience of a fully equipped home while still being able to customize the decor to your taste. This flexibility is particularly appealing for those who value a personalized living environment without the long-term commitment. CONCLUSION Furnished houses offer a range of benefits that make them an excellent choice for many renters. From the convenience of a ready-to-move-in home to the cost savings and reduced maintenance responsibilities, furnished rentals simplify the process of finding and settling into a new place. Whether you're a professional, a student, or someone who moves frequently, furnished homes provide a comfortable, stylish, and hassle-free living solution. Consider the advantages of furnished living for your next move and experience the ease and comfort it brings.

The Institute of Acoustics is the UK's professional body for those working in acoustics, noise and vibration. It was formed in 1974 from the amalgamation of the Acoustics Group of the Institute of Physics and the British Acoustical Society (a daughter society of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers). The Institute of Acoustics is a nominated body of the Engineering Council, offering registration at Chartered and Incorporated Engineer levels. The Institute has some 3000 members from a rich diversity of backgrounds, with engineers, scientists, educators, lawyers, occupational hygienists, architects and environmental health officers among their number. This multidisciplinary culture provides a productive environment for cross-fertilisation of ideas and initiatives. The range of interests of members within the world of acoustics is equally wide, embracing such aspects as aerodynamics, architectural acoustics, building acoustics, electroacoustics, engineering dynamics, noise and vibration, hearing, speech, underwater acoustics, together with a variety of environmental aspects. The lively nature of the Institute is demonstrated by the breadth of its learned society programmes. There are three corporate grades of membership, namely Honorary Fellow, Fellow, and Member, and four non-corporate grades of Associate Member, Technician Member, Affiliate, and Student. The Institute is well supported by organisations which have become Sponsor Members and by its Key Sponsors. A recent employment survey shows that of our 3000 members, some 900 are employed in industry, commerce and consultancies, 400 in education and research, and nearly 500 in public authorities. Among the more specialist areas in which acousticians are employed are the audio and hi-fi industry, auditorium and concert hall design, broadcasting, telecommunications, quiet vehicle and product design, sonar system design, human-computer interaction, environmental noise control and health and safety management. The Institute works closely with other professional bodies in related fields, including CIEH, REHIS and IOSH and the Association of Noise Consultants. As one of the smaller professional institutions, the Institute of Acoustics has particular strengths in its learned society programmes and its cohesive role for the subject. There is a club atmosphere in its activities and it is possible for members to maintain personal contacts with colleagues engaged in other related areas of acoustics. There is a high participation rate by members in the conference, subject specialist meetings and regional branch activities of the Institute. The Institute offers members a Continuous Professional Development support scheme, a feature which is becoming increasingly recognised as an essential element in ensuring that professionals can keep up-to-date with rapidly changing technological and regulatory issues. Specialist interests are catered for through specialist groups, and regional activities are promoted by a number of regional branches. The work of the Institute relies heavily, of course, on the voluntary efforts of many members of Council, of its Standing Committees and of the Group and Branch Committees. The Institute publishes a bi-monthly Acoustics Bulletin, containing articles of professional, academic and technical interest and the Institute's Proceedings record the two hundred or more papers presented at our formal meetings each year. An education programme, comprising a Diploma in Acoustics and Noise Control and several Certificate of Competence courses is offered at a number of Centres throughout the UK. The Diploma is also available by tutored distance learning. Through specialist Institute of Acoustics working groups, support is given to the development of legislation in these areas, and there is considerable activity by Institute members in UK, European and International Standards development. The Institute is a founding member of the European Acoustics Association (EAA), a member society of the International Institute of Noise Control Engineering (I-INCE) and a member of the International Commission for Acoustics (ICA)
