Bowmandale Primary School
Straight True Successful
Welcome to the website for Bowmandale Primary School. I hope that this site gives you a good insight into our school and demonstrates our commitment to creating a positive and rewarding environment in which our pupils can learn and grow.
We have high hopes for all our pupils and it is important to us that children enjoy the time they spend here. Our aim is to provide a learning experience that will help all children to make rapid progress, whatever their starting point. We want them to have the best possible start in life and help them to acquire the skills, knowledge, understanding and ambition to prepare them for life beyond the classroom. We want all of our children to achieve the very best that they can.
It's vital that we work closely with parents and carers and we encourage you to take an active interest in your child's education and school life – your contribution is valued and important. Our school is always striving to improve and we are eager to work closely with the whole school community to achieve our ambition of providing our pupils with the best possible start to their education.

This week Year 3, 3/4, 4 and 5 have been venturing out to the classroom in the woods to learn about Anglo Saxons and Romans. The children have been participating in activities such as making and testing their own raft and making their own Anglo-Saxon houses. They ate porridge flavoured with hand picked berries and they even plucked and tried pigeon.
