Look at our fantastic garden! We are so fortunate to have an incredible outdoor space where children can access some  challenging learning opportunities. Children need to learn to assess and take risks so they have an awareness of danger and can keep themselves safe: negotiating space and challenging climbing are essential developmental learning blocks which help with brain development. Please come outside when you drop your child off and see how the garden is used.
​There is a full risk benefit analysis on the website.

If your child was born between
1 September 2018 and 31 August 2019
you must apply for Reception Class before
​15 January 2023. Although the deadline has passed, please get in touch with pupil admissions.
Please visit www.eadmissions.org.uk
