We are a busy but friendly school, with lots going on. This website aims to give you a taster of the school, as well as providing regularly updated information for both parents and pupils. In September 2009 we moved into a brand new building, which allowed us to double our previous capacity. We are now a 2 form entry primary school with a nursery. We take 60 children into our Reception class each September, and we have 39 nursery children. In our nursery, parents can choose a 3-hour session in either the morning or the afternoon. Our facilities include a Multi-Use Games Area(MUGA), a sports field, a garden/allotment area lovingly tended by our Eco club, a stunning swimming pool with colored glass windows, and a beautifully furnished community room. We do hire our swimming pool to swim clubs, please contact the school office if you have an inquiry. Our Mission Statement is ‘Growing Successful Learners’.
