This is the front entrance to our school. Our school is a listed building located in a beautiful rural location in the historic village of Caledon. Our grounds overlook fields and mature trees. Our neighbours include rabbits, a squirrel and lambs in the springtime.  

 

We have two hard surface playgrounds with painted playground games and a grass pitch with goalposts. We added a storage shed to store our equipment for positive play. The children in Foundation also make good use of our recently added outdoor covered play area in Play Based Learning. Mrs Wilson leads our Eco-Schools programme and help pupils to maintain our recycling programme. The children enjoy planting trees and looking after our grounds.  

 

Completed in 2005 as part of the extension project carried out by the EA, the multi-purpose hall has proven to be a valuable asset to the school. The spacious hall with its extensive range of gym equipment is used in sports and physical education activities. With stage curtains and separate stores for our school stage the hall allows us to hold our assemblies, host visiting groups and perform fantastic Christmas concerts. The hall also serves as a dining area at lunch time. 

 

This is where the children in the early Foundation Stage learn and play. The room is bright and attractive with a wealth of resources to develop early knowledge, skills and independence. The room is organised into zones for Activity Based Learning including writing, reading, creative, small world, construction and role play areas. The children love using the Interactive Whiteboard to enhance their learning. A learning board and visual timetable help pupils to take responsibility for their own learning. Mrs Warnock teaches this class. 

Mrs Wilson is the teacher in the P2 room. The year two room is bright and colourful with lots of natural light. Pupils also have access to the covered play area for activity based learning. The classroom is also equipped with a new interactive panel. Pupils also make use of the class set of iPads to assist them in their learning.  

Welcome to Mrs Burton’s classroom. This is where the children in Primary 3/4 participate in a range of active and more formal activities to advance their learning. Like all of our classrooms, the children have access to a large Interactive Whiteboard. The pupils make excellent use of this technology everyday across the curriculum. This classroom is bright and well organised including a learning board and ‘traffic light’ displays as part of our Assessment for Learning strategy. Mrs P. Morrow is the classroom assistant in this classroom. 

Welcome to Mrs Black and Mrs Peters room.  Mrs Black teaches P5/6 on Monday to Thursday while Mrs Peters teaches the class on Fridays.

The bright room is colourful and spacious and is the newest addition to our accommodation in April 2024 boasting a spacious cloakroom, toilet area and hygiene room also.
