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.

Y3 had a lovely time learning about nature in the Forest of Bowland on our trip to Abbeystead on Wednesday. Thank you to Countryside Learning, our school PTA and our volunteers for supporting the trip and making it happen.
Y6 showed lots of resilience on our coastal walk as part of Great Wood’s walking curriculum. They walked 9 miles through the wind and rain and put our map reading skills to the test. Well done Year 6 ; we are proud of you!
What’s the sign of a good gardening session? Muddy hands and big grins!
Year 1 have been outside removing grass from the wildflower tyre planters (as well as spotting grubs and bugs) and sowing new seeds to give us a fantastic array of wildflowers for pollinators later this summer. They’ve also had a great time repotting tomato seedlings as we get ready for more growing in the vegetable beds this term. Fabulous work, Year One! 🌱🍅🌸🌺🐝
