We aim to provide a caring, purposeful and inspiring environment in which all children can develop confidence, independence and an enthusiasm for lifelong learning. Our village setting, and smaller size means our children can all receive a high-quality education supported by a friendly, family feel.
We have a motivated and committed team of teachers and support staff who work together to build on the schools strengths and bring out the best in every child. We aim to achieve high standards and outcomes by planning carefully for support, intervention and extension. Let there be light! Year 4 have been making torches in class today. Future Gladiators!
Years 5 and 6 have had fun using the equipment in the hall for PE this afternoon. Fairy Tale Tea Party! Geckos have had such a busy morning today. They've decorated cups and created a meal, found a pea under a cushion, coloured, built castles, drawn a bridge, danced at a ball, decorated a cake, poisoned an apple and slept for 100 years!
