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.

Polo shirts and shorts or summer dresses are enough for infants and Year 4 but as their classrooms have air-conditioning, Years 3,5 and 6 should have their tops in school. Names on hats please and slap on the sun cream in the mornings.
On Wednesday morning, at Junior Sports Day, the children will be able to find shade but spectators should prepare for no access to shade.
Today in Design and Technology 4H have learned all about levers and linkages. Using fixed and loose pivots they created a moving scene of their choice from our Wolf Brother class novel. Great work was completed by all. Well done 4H!🤩
Massive thanks to the PTA parents and staff who made Great Wood’s Summer Festival memorable. There has been a small group of parents planning for months- their efforts make a difference. Messages of thanks to all appreciated on comments. Thank you to families for showing up and making it fun.
