Welcome
I am delighted to welcome you to Bury CofE Primary School. This website aims to give you a snapshot of what life at Bury is all about, this however can never compare to seeing the school first-hand. If you are looking for a school rich in history, yet always forward thinking; book an appointment with Mrs Clark at the school office where I can arrange for some of our pupils to show you what it is like to be one of the STARs (Success, Teamwork, Aspiration, Respect, Resilience and Responsibility) at Bury.
If there is something that you cannot find on the website, please do not hesitate to get in touch - it will help us to improve our website. As with all of the children at Bury, we are all keen to learn and continuously improve.
The school is set in a fantastic location and we are always developing our curriculum to ensure that we take every advantage of this . We have links with the Church and those are reflected in our caring, loving Christian ethos based around the Christian values. Whilst we have a strong emphasis on ensuring the children leave Bury with excellent standards of English and Maths, we believe this is achieved through utilising the whole curriculum; providing those moments of awe and wonder that stimulate curiosity and a lifelong love of learning.
Bury is a small rural primary school educating children from 4 – 11. We put a great emphasis on truly knowing all our children and knowing the next steps required on their learning journey.
We have much smaller than average class sizes, ensuring the children are given quality time with their teacher and teaching assistant every day. Everyone here is incredibly proud of our school, so much so that the children decided to create a film (just above) to give you an insight into life here at Bury. We were also filmed by the South Downs National Park who were keen to share just what a special school Bury CofE Primary is. The video is just below. Have a look and see if what we offer here at Bury is the the right place for your child.

@BuryCEPrimaryToday's assembly caused audible gasps as we celebrated a new Rock Legend (all multiplication tables and corresponding division up to 12x12 in less than 2 seconds per question). Not only is it a great achievement at any age - this is a child in Year 1!

@BuryCEPrimaryIt is definitely spring time with flowers opening up all around. It also means it is time for beekeeping club to start again. The children are happy to report we have a healthy colony and they all spotted the queen doing well.

@BuryCEPrimaryNot our typical post, but we have had great excitement today as the new toilets have been opened. The boys were particularly pleased with the addition of their large mirror.

@BuryCEPrimaryYr 1 have been learning all about cyanotypes and have used their new found knowledge to make Mr Moore an Easter card. What do you think @ChiDioEducation ? Can you tell what flowers they have used?

@BuryCEPrimaryIt doesn't take much persuasion for Mr Moore to get his skull collection out! Great excitement from one of Kestrels showing us his new find - it is rare to see a fox skull with so many teeth intact.
