Our Small School is a very special place for children aged from 3 to 11 where children are treated as individuals and taught in small groups. We provide a unique learning environment within a beautiful wooded rural setting.

Our school opened in 2001 in Ringmer and moved to its present setting in 2005. The small school offers an holistic kindergarten and primary curriculum based on the work of Frederich Froebel. Children’s interests lead much of the curriculum planning. At Annan Farm children learn through first hand experiences, play and activity. From their first beginnings in the kindergarten, children spend much of their time outdoors learning through nature. They take part in sessions of Forest School in the wildlife area and in the woods adjacent to the school as well as caring for their own organic garden.

The school is situated in a lovely wooded setting with lots of outdoor spaces to explore and trees to climb. We provide a learning environment which addresses the social, emotional, intellectual, physical, spiritual and creative needs of each child, helping them to realize their unique potential.
