Reading Rooms
We are so fortunate to have a Reading Room in every phase. Our Reading Rooms are full to the brim with a wide range of texts. All children have access to Comic Books, narratives, jokes, Graphic Novels, Classics, Newspapers, Non-fiction and so much more. Every child can sign books out to take home and share with their families.
Three times a year, we set reading challenges for which the children have two terms to complete. Those who do complete the challenges, are able to go to our exciting reading book vending machine and can choose the book of their choosing which they are able to keep. The children who complete the reading challenges all year go on the very exciting trip to Waterstones where they can choose a book from their large collection. To see the reading challenges for this term, click on the link below.

Play Time
We have so many amazing areas for our children to enjoy at play times. We have:
​A park area - An area with a climbing frame, slide and swings.
Loose parts - An area with lots of everyday objects for the children to use their imagination and create a world of their own.
Large construction - An area with lots of resources for children to create their own structures to use in whichever way they choose including building their own dens.
Wildlife Area - An area full of natural adventure consisting of wildlife, ponds and a hidden world to explore.
Gravel pit, sandpit, bikes, scooters, MUGAs, Table Tennis, mud kitchen, art, a lot of field space and an inside area.
To ensure our children enjoy every aspect of our play time, our children go outside in most weathers. To accommodate this during wet/cold days, we encourage every child to bring in wellies and waterproof coats.
