We are proud of our school and we would like to show you around.

We have tried to include a range of areas so you are able to get a good idea of what our buildings and grounds look like.

The images show pupils and staff engaged in a range of activities which go on day to day in school.

Our Buildings

The Victorian Wing

View of our school from the High Street

Our school dates back to Victorian times. The part of the school that can be seen from the High Street was built in the 1860's.

We have worked really hard to keep this lovely part of our building in a good state of repair.

Children in Year 3 learn in this part of the building in two bright, refurbished classrooms.

Our Resources Room, Staff Room, First Aid Room and Higher Level Teaching Assistant Base are also here.

There is also a newly fitted kitchen, especially for children to use, a small teaching room and a large room which we use for Art and Design activities.

Administration Area

The central area of the school was built in the 1960's and is mainly used for administration. Here you will find the main reception area and the main office which Ms Wittering looks after.

Reception Area

There are offices for the the Headteacher, our two Assistnt Headteachers, Miss Newman and Mr Holt, and our Bursar, Mrs Marston. There is a second reception area, an Inclusion Base and meeting room, and our School Library in this section of the school.

School Library

We have a large school hall in which we hold a daily act of collective worship. Sometimes we welcome special visitors or dress up to raise money for charity. We also do PE in our hall and use it as a dining room every lunch time.

The Millennium Wing

The school was extended in 2000 to provide six new classrooms,

an ICT suite and a Music Room.
