Golden Thread of Enriching Experiences

By the time our children leave us at the end of Year 6, we want them to have had the opportunity to take part in seven exciting experiences that they might not otherwise have had.

We also think it is vital that our children understand their local context and the importance of the Estuary coastline. We provide the opportunity for a visit to either the Estuary or the beach in each year group.
