Welcome

At Burhill, we are passionate about learning, and we believe everyone is a learner. Our job at Burhill is to make sure everyone can achieve and attain the best they can. We value independent thinkers at Burhill, so we want children to develop a positive and independent attitude towards learning. Every child is encouraged to develop as an individual in a strongly caring and supportive environment where they feel safe and secure.
Welcome from the Head

  • 🐯☕ Nursery Learning ☕🐯 Nursery have been enjoying The Tiger Who Came to Tea! 📘 The children loved drawing pictures inspired by the story and acting out a café scene, taking turns to be the tiger, customers and café staff. 🎨🍰 It was wonderful to see their imagination, language and confidence grow through creative play and storytelling. Well done, Nursery! 🌟 #NurseryLearning #TheTigerWhoCameToTea #EarlyYears #ImaginativePlay #StoryTime
  • 🌱 Reception Learning 🌱 Reception have been enjoying their learning inspired by Oliver’s Vegetables. 📘🥕 The children explored different vegetables, talked about healthy choices and practised preparing vegetables, developing key skills such as peeling and handling tools safely. They extended this learning through artwork, creating colourful vegetable pictures, and through Mastering Number, where they counted, sorted and compared vegetables as part of their maths learning. 🎨🔢 We loved seeing their creativity, independence and enthusiasm for learning. Well done, Reception! 🌈✨ #ReceptionLearning #OliversVegetables #EarlyYears #MasteringNumber #LifeSkills
