Welcome to Great Wood School
We aim to bring learning alive, making it exciting and stimulating. We want to give our children a thirst for learning that continues with them throughout their future school experiences and lives. An essential ingredient for this to happen is teamwork. We view education as a joint venture involving everyone- children, parents, staff, governors and the wider community.
We hope that we will be able to depend on your co-operation and support in this partnership to provide the best for every child.

❗Year 4 trip!❗
Tomorrow (16.9.26) is year 4’s trip to Liverpool World Museum.
Please ensure your child is dropped off at 8am prompt, as the coach will be leaving at 8.15am. We will return to school at 4pm.
Please:
Bring packed lunch in a backpack (unless having a school dinner).
Bring a full water bottle.
Wear school uniform.
Wear sensible footwear and a coat.
If needed, travel sickness tablets to be taken before children arrive at school.
If you are needed as a volunteer, your child’s class teacher will have already contacted you.
Any other questions, please ask your child’s teacher.
We look forward to seeing the children tomorrow for a fun-filled day!
Year 4 have had their first recorder lesson. We learnt how to hold the recorder correctly and how to play the ‘b’ note. We learnt a short song, which we have taken home to play for our parents and carers.
🍎🍏Great Wood Apple Crumbles For Sale 🍏🍎
Key Stage One and EYFS spent yesterday harvesting the apples in the orchard. On Thursday, Year 1 and Year 2 will be turning our Great Wood apples into incredible Great Wood apple crumbles! The crumbles will be for sale either in the mini hall or (weather depending) outside the link corridor to Key Stage 1 at 3:15pm on Thursday for a suggested donation of £1.50. The crumbles will be ready to cook at home in the oven. The donations for the crumbles will cover the cost of ingredients and any profits will go towards buying fruit bushes and canes to help make next year’s crumbles even tastier! Bon appétit!
