We hope this provides an exciting and informative insight into life here at Penn Wood and the truly exceptional environment for learning and very special community where we grow and achieve together. bespoke play spaces, a woodland, playing fields and a tranquil pond area.
Our peaceful environment provides great opportunity for reflection, thoughtfulness and a chance to connect. Children of all ages explore a range of places for learning and play and develop their ideas, cooperate with others and learn safely alongside nature, as they spend their school days enjoying a varied and happy education.
Our central courtyard is home to the 'Tree of Life' , a magnificent symbol of growth at the heart of our school. It stands firm over us and grows strongly from deep foundations. Like our children, the tree started as a tiny seed and flourished, becoming deeply rooted in and connected to our community.
