The International School Award 2021-24

We are very happy to announce that Swallowfield has been awarded the British Council’s prestigious International School Award (2021-2024) in recognition of its work to bring the world into the classroom.

The International School Award celebrates the achievements of schools that do exceptional work in international education.

As a school, we are very proud of our own internationalism amongst our pupils, but also take every opportunity to bring the global world into Swallowfield, thus expanding the children’s horizons, developing our values further and learning how to be global citizens.

Welcome Back Swallowfield!

Welcome back to a new and exciting year ahead!

We look really forward to seeing you all and meeting new faces around the school. We would like to give a big welcome to Mrs Galloway who will be teaching in Foundation this year opposite Miss Papworth.

Harry Potter Day

On Thursday 24th June, Swallowfield took part in the National Harry Potter Reading event.

It is safe to say the children loved it! It was quite a surreal experience to walk down the corridors and see little wizard and witches, goblins and ghosts all learning their phonics and practising their times tables.

Throughout the day, the children enjoyed Wizardry Word challenges, making wands, creating their own Hogwarts/Swallowfield House Badges and even reading the first Harry Potter book together.

 

Thank you for all of your support from home to make this a fantastic and positive day for the children.
