Welcome to Barns Green Primary School

We are a happy and successful primary school, set in the heart of rural Barns Green, Sussex. We’re passionate about the well-being of our children and their learning.

Our values of Respect, Responsibility, Perseverance, Compassion, Community and Inclusion underpin everything we do. You can find out more about our Values and our Vision here.

We have a state-of-the-art school building, designed to 21st-century standards, built in 2015. The building boasts generous classrooms and play spaces to create a stimulating environment for our pupils. The inside space is bright and airy and flooded with natural daylight. There is easy access to outdoor spaces, and we encourage outdoor learning in extensive playgrounds and fields and ‘forest school’.

Thank you for taking the time to find out more about us. We hope that our website gives you an insight into the school, its values, ethos, and expectations.

Please don’t forget your child needs to bring a packed lunch tomrrow ( Monday 27th) due to the planned power cut.

On Thursday, Fox class went on a History and Geography school trip into Brighton.

We spent the morning at Downs Juniors "Take Shelter" experience where the children were able speak to people who had been evacuated during WW2.

They were then able to travel underground to the air-raid shelter and experience what it would have been like during an air-raid.

We then went on a bomb walk around Brighton to see where the bombs were dropped during the war, the child then used their fieldwork skills to sketch the area.

Although it may have been a very wet day, all the children were amazing and we had a really good time!

As part of our DT sessions - Make Do and Mend - linked to our Blitz & Pieces topic Fox class have been investigating how clothes are made by unpicking and testing unwanted clothes to see how they are made.

We have also learned how to use running, whip and blanket stitch in preparation for repairing clothes next lesson!

I have been so impressed with how the class have taken to sewing and especially how those that have the knack have helped their peers 😃

Well done all of Fox Class.

Some of the wonderful photos taken to celebrate the arrival of our solar panels. What a wonderful way to mark our commitment to sustainability issues and 'Switch Off Fortnight!'

What amazing school grounds we have!
