How to join our school as a family
We are always very happy for new parents and children to visit the school to talk to the headteacher, staff and children. Please telephone the school office to make an appointment.
Please do look at the rest of our website to get a flavour of the school. It was originally built in 1855, extensively altered in 1999 with the Foundation Stage extended and refurbished during the summer of 2009. A separate Year 6 classroom was added to the school in the Summer of 2018. Most pupils live within easy walking distance of the school although a few do live in adjoining villages and there is transport available from some villages.
Parents are welcomed into the school and are involved in a wide range of activities. The school has strong links with the village and is very much part of the local community. The school is well supported by parents and our active and committed Governing Body.
