Forest School
Fri 03 May 2024On Monday 29th April, we opened our doors to the public to showcase our new wildlife and Forest School area. We had such a great day and it was so lovely to see lots of the children engaged and involved in different activities, lots of which were organised by our Forest School Leader, Mr Ridout.
We are fortunate enough to be able to offer all children in our school, from Fledglings to Year 6, Forest School sessions throughout the year. These sessions are fun and practical and encourage children to learn through play in the natural environment. During these sessions the children will learn practical abilities such as building, making and using tools, foraging, cooking with fire and lots more!

OPAL Day
Fri 20 Oct 2023OPAL stands for 'Outdoor Play and Learning' and is a big part of our school.
On 20th October, we held an OPAL day so that all the children could experience some OPAL activities and work together with different year groups on open ended outdoor activities, such as den building, making art from nature, playing problem solving games and some of the photos from this day and included below. We hope to hold an OPAL day every term as it was very successful. We were very grateful for all the donations you sent in.
Please let us know if you can help in any way and/or would like to join our OPAL team.

OPAL
Tue 18 Jul 2023Students of all ages have been enjoying our OPAL play during the summer term. All over the field there are children making dens, digging for treasure, playing in the sand pit, enjoying the wilder areas and designing their own creative play. I was delighted to find a shady glade in which a smashing group had constructed their own theme park. They told me all about the safety features of each ride and had a great time demonstrating them. (As someone who feels ill on a roundabout, I am medically exempt from trying it out!
I hope you enjoy the pictures,
