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 5/6 Girls’ Football
Today, our Year 5/6 Girls’ football team attended the LHSSN County Qualifying Competition. In the group stage, we did not concede a single goal and went unbeaten with one win and four draws. Moving into the knockout stage, we narrowly lost in the semi-final and achieved fourth place overall. We played some wonderful football and supported each other brilliantly, both on and off the pitch. Well done, girls! We are very proud of you.
Lovely start to the day at Great Wood. Sun shining on the archery club and great to see older gymnasts helping the younger ones. We also got the banner out for the Girls’ football tournament today. Go Great Wood.
Year 3 - Roman Day
What an exciting day we’ve had in Year 3! Today, we were visited by a Roman soldier who brought our learning about Romans to life!
Year 3 discovered what life was like in the Roman army and enjoyed some fantastic hands-on activities, including grinding flour, writing on wax tablets and becoming brilliant archaeologists as they explored Roman artefacts.
We can’t wait to continue our journey back in time and learn even more about the Romans.
Well done, Year 3!
