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.

1LO: 🏰 Our Year 1 children had a fantastic visit to Lancaster Castle in preparation for their Year 2 history topic all about castles. The children enjoyed an informative tour with a castle guide before exploring the castle’s fascinating features, asking lots of thoughtful questions along the way. They were incredibly inquisitive, showed wonderful curiosity and behaved beautifully throughout the morning. At the end of the tour, they had time to sketch the castle. Impressive work, Year 1! We are so proud of them and hope they are excited to continue their learning in Year 2. Thank you to the parent helpers who supported us on this trip. 🏰

4F used levers and linkages to create a moving illustration inspired by our class novel, Wolf Brother. The results were amazing! Their ideas, designs and thoughtful artwork really brought the episodes in the story to life. Well done 4F!
