Welcome to Greatwood 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.

Acorn and Chestnut classes were joined by all of Year One as we took part in the ancient tradition of wassailing. We all went into the orchard to celebrate our apples trees and make a wish for a great apple harvest this year. We banged pots and pans to scare off anything we didn‘t want in the orchard before hanging up slices of apple for birds like blackbirds and robins to snack on. Then we all sang songs before trying some tasty warm spiced apple juice. It was great fun and lovely to all come together in winter to get excited for the following seasons. 🍎🌳🐦⬛🎵🧃

Thanks to the PTA for funding Cinderella on Tuesday. The children loved it. They also loved playing in the snow while it lasted. Oh no we didn’t!
