Celebrating Our Climate‑Ready Classroom Award Achievement May 2026 - The Weatherbies visited our school today to help us celebrate receiving this fantastic award. They were delighted to see all the wonderful eco‑work happening in Nursery and how we use their characters to help our children learn about climate change from such a young age. Their visit recognised the creativity, enthusiasm, and commitment shown by our pupils as they explore weather, sustainability, and caring for our world.

Our New Canopy - Outdoor Learning

15th Feb 2023

We are just delighted to be able to share these photos of our young children enjoying their new Outdoor Learning space on our school grounds. This project has been on-going since May 2022 with the completion of our new canopy in early January 2022. We were lucky to secure funding to support this project through 'Live Here, Love Here' School Pollinators Grant. This money has helped to facilitate our passion for Outdoor Learning within the Nursery School and enabled the children access learning outdoors and nature at their fingertips whatever the weather!! Have a look at the photo's which gives you a snap shoot of before and after completion of the project which is still ongoing!! We indeed to move forward to ensure this space is a hive of attraction for the many insects and birds native to our local area!
