Our East Brent
School was first established in 1841 as a Church of England National
School to convey the 3R's and scriptures to the poorer children in the
area.
In 1976 it became a First School and now admits children of between 4
and 9 years of age. It is a Voluntary controlled school, which means the
Church of England is represented on the Governing body and close links
are maintained with St. Mary's Church.
There is also a pre-school group which is run mornings Mon-Fri
during term time.
School Website
The school currently has a superb informative web site
where you can find the latest news and updates on school activities etc.

It is also linked to the Cheddar Valley Schools Website. |

Could you help our children to
set up a their school garden?
We are hoping to
plant fruit trees to make our healthy eating initiative more sustainable.
Is there a volunteer (or more than one) who could help us to plant them, subject
to criminals record bureau enhanced disclosure, and someone to help us design
and plant our bio-diversity wildlife garden and a 'kitchen' garden?

"The Pre School Children
had a visit from the Police and 2 Police sniffer
dogs last week. They were given a safety talk and
then the 2 dogs demonstrated some sniffing skills
outside, they sniffed out some balls that were
hidden around the playground. Children (and staff!)
then enjoyed trying on the police hats!
The Pre-School are always
welcoming new families to come and have a look
around, they take children from 2years old. For any
further information please call Emma on 07849062469"
