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.

Well done to this week’s Rainbow Readers!
Year 6 shared some fascinating accounts of great grandparents and relations who have served as part of our Armistice Day Assembly today. It is truly incredible to consider the impact wars have had over time - including a positive story of great grandparents being brought together from a little note added into a Bird's custard tin that the factory workers were encouraged to include when packing for the troops. Mrs McKinley ended our assembly playing The Last Post.
The trees around the junior playground, looking their autumn best this week, were planted by volunteers. Lancaster and District Conservation Volunteers have been visiting Great Wood on Sundays over the past 30 years to help school preserve our woodland and enhance our green spaces for wildlife and the community. Thank you www.ldcv.net/ Special thanks for David and Liz whose passion drive LDCV.
