Single-year-group classes – allowing children to learn, grow and thrive in a nurturing environment.

Wraparound care – with breakfast club and after-school club available to support your family’s needs.

Swimming every week – with our very own on-site swimming pool and lessons led by an experienced swimming instructor.

Outdoor learning – weekly Forest School sessions on site.

Garden allotment – our school allotment and polytunnel allow children to get hands-on with gardening and growing our own vegetables.

A school at the heart of Hay-on-Wye – we make the most of our wonderful local community, from visiting local businesses and our care home to enjoying local walks and exploring our unique Town of Books.

Welsh language – children have opportunities to learn Welsh and experience the language and culture, supported by our wonderful members of staff, many of whom are Welsh first language.

We look forward to welcoming you and your family to our Open Morning.
