Pupils are happy coming to this welcoming and inclusive school. Although small in size, the school sits at the heart of its local community. Staff know pupils and their families well. Warm relationships between staff and pupils ensure that pupils feel safe and well cared for …..   Pupils appreciate the benefits of being in a small school …..  The school’s work to enhance pupils’ spiritual, moral, social and cultural development is of a high quality. Pupils develop a strong sense of community and enjoy being involved in community events and projects.

As the plaque on the wall indicates there has been a school on this site for
several centuries, but clearly it is not living in the past!
Our local primary school is home to around 16 pupils, in two classes.

ATG Activities

We will be working with local landowners to identify small areas of land that can be used to plant trees or hedges. Occasional requests will go out to members, seeking volunteers to survey areas of land to assess the age and health of trees and to identify possible planting areas, as well as to take part in planting trees and hedges. These activities will normally be scheduled to last for no more than three hours.

The Tree Group has insurance to cover members carrying out these activities.

COVID Policy (Feb.2022)

Unfortunately Covid-19 has not gone away, and we still want everyone to feel safe whilst being able to enjoy the film.

  • We use ‘cabaret-style’ seating around suitably spaced tables.
  • We recommend that you continue to wear a face covering when moving around the village hall, though this may be removed whilst you are seated.
  • It would also be appreciated if you could complete an antigen (lateral flow) test before attending.  (We are more than happy to refund your ticket should your test unfortunately prove positive.)
