This year, our wonderful school will be 100 years old and we are planning some celebratory events to mark the occasion. We will be holding a Centenary Summer Fayre with performances from present and past pupils, picnics and stalls on Saturday 6th July 2024 on our school field from 11.30am until 3.30pm.

There will be craft and gift stalls, refreshments, entertainment and inflatable fun for all the family. We invite current and former pupils, along with friends and family, governors, trustees and local residents to come and join us - EVERYONE is Welcome!

100 Voices

Our one hundred years’ worth of alumni memories are rich and layered. In honour of our school’s centenary, we are inviting past pupils and former staff to share their favourite stories and photographs with us.

We want you to delve into our rich past by visiting our dedicated centenary webpage to see how it grows as we fill it with photos and memories. But we need your help as we would love to reach 100!
