Woodland Camp Classroom is craned in over the Swimming Pool, into position

We are excited that our new Woodland Camp Classroom has arrived. It will enable us to teach outside more often. This brings a wealth of benefits to our children. They will have more opportunities to learn through play and collaboration. Our Woodland Camp is a place to develop skills of Critical Thinking by working with your friends to achieve together.

This new classroom was jolly difficult to get into position. It required a huge crane to lift it up and over the Swimming Pool. That operation was very expensive, and would not have been possible without the generosity of one parent. Thank you to Mr Houlihan, Managing Director of The Arlo Group. The Arlo Group donation of £700 for the crane means we can now push ahead with the rest of the project. Next, we will connect electricity, clad the outside in wood, and kit out the inside.

Mr Houlihan said, “The Arlo Group are very happy to support innovation, particularly in education within our local community, it's about giving our children a better deal!”

We now await our new Astro Turf field in late July.
