Chalkwell Hall Junior School is now over one hundred years old. It is a building that stands proud in the local area. During our centenary year in 2008-2009 we were overwhelmed by the number of ex pupils, aged between 80 and those who had recently left, who returned with fond memories of their time at our school.
It is our aim to maintain some of the tradition at our popular school and also ensure that our children enjoy the new technologies and advances being made in our rapidly changing world.
