Daily routine 

Every Tuesday afternoon, we have a Forest School session, in the local National Trust woodland or on site. Our Reception teacher is currently undergoing her Level 3 FS training.

Our guinea pigs. In Class 1 we have 2 guinea pigs that we all work together to look after. They get to go home with you in the holidays! Their names are Biscuit and Funky and they are very friendly.

At school, we have access to a minibus and go out on lots of visits……
