In January 2006 the pupils and staff of Lamberhurst St Mary's Church of England Primary School moved into the stunning state of the art modern building that the school now occupies at the top of Pearse Place.
It had taken many years work by The Governing Body to secure the planning permission and the go ahead to build the new school on land which had been left specifically for a new School. Recently the new school was extended, adding a second floor and some additional classrooms. Here are some photos of the different parts of the school.
