They have also recently enjoyed planting sunflowers and spending time in the forest school area!

We take children from the age of 3 in our Nursery, if you are interested in a place, please call the school office on 01732 841912 or email [email protected]

Spring has sprung at St James, and we're buzzing with excitement! Thanks to a wonderful Nature Grant, our school grounds are transforming into a biodiversity haven. We've welcomed bug hotels, vegetable and fruit planters, butterfly nesting barns, bird houses, squirrel feeders, binoculars, and bug and plant hunting kits to our outdoor spaces.

Teston class got their hands dirty this afternoon exploring with the bug hunting gear, and the discoveries were amazing! We're thrilled to invite every child and family to join in the nature adventure happening right here on our grounds. Whether you're spotting creatures, or simply enjoying the fresh air, there's something magical waiting for everyone. Keep an eye out for updates and celebrate the wonderful wildlife around us!
