Last year was a very exciting year for the school. We moved into our new building ready to start the Spring Term 2016. The school now looks fantastic with beautiful displays in classrooms and in the corridors.
The school occupies extensive grounds with a playing field, sports field and two playgrounds. We have a large hall which can accommodate the whole school for collective worship and which is also used as a dining room, for physical activities, and to accommodate our many after-school clubs.
