Junior School Overview

Welcome to our Junior School, where innovative teaching and learning is combined with superb facilities and resources ensuring children develop emotionally, physically, socially and academically, in a stimulating environment which encourages every child to achieve their full potential across all area of Eagle House life. 

Each day is spent carefully balancing core curriculum, life skills, resilience and team work around the children’s interests.  Vibrant displays fill the walls and children and staff are fully immersed in a supportive and dynamic way of learning together. 

Our whole school Golden Eagle programme starts in the Early Years with our ‘Skills for Life’ where children come together to immerse themselves in aspects of learning that have such an important place in their development; they become passionate photographers, sustainable cooks, environmental wardens or open fire chefs under the canopy in the woods and enjoy STE (Science Technology Engineering) led by sixth form pupils from Wellington College.   

Children are encouraged to appreciate the importance of a healthy body and mind through regular sporting activities ranging from quiet moments of yoga and splashing in the pool, to fun events organised with local primary schools.  

Daily ‘Me Moments' encourage them to actively reflect on their feelings and become increasingly aware of a range of emotions. Our Eagle House Code ensures all children understand the boundaries of behaviour; they learn to see mistakes as opportunities to grow and to become accepting of one another’s differences.

We pride ourselves on the confident, happy, smiling faces that emerge at ‘drop off’ each morning ready to learn in a purposeful, yet fun, environment where learning happens both indoors and out. Children are able to use all the facilities across the school including the Library, a myriad of sports facilities, our Golden Eagle Centre, music department and the adventure playground. Specialist staff teach Music, Art, French, PE and Swimming.

 

Many opportunities are on offer to extend their learning through weekly clubs and activities, trips out and interesting visitors to the school. Our Hideout provides excellent wrap around care for those requiring a longer day or holiday cover. 

The very best way to feel the ‘buzz’ of activity is come and see for yourselves what we do. Our Head of Junior School looks forward to welcoming you and would be delighted to take you on a tour. Please contact our Head of Admissions to arrange an appointment.
