Welcome from Lydia Thompson, Head of School

A very warm welcome to Wadhurst CE Primary School & Nursery.

We are a nurturing, family-centred school at the heart of our local community, with a strong Christian ethos and a beautiful setting in the Sussex countryside. We are proud to be a place where every child is known, valued and encouraged to be themselves.

At Wadhurst, we believe every child has the potential to flourish. We celebrate individuality, nurture unique talents and inspire children to approach life with curiosity, confidence and a genuine love of learning. Through our rich and engaging curriculum, we provide the knowledge, skills and experiences that enable children to discover what they can achieve and grow into confident, creative and compassionate individuals.

We know that children thrive when school and home work in partnership. Families are at the heart of our school community, and we value the strong relationships we build with parents, carers and the wider community. Together, we create an environment where every child feels happy, safe, supported and empowered to become the very best version of themselves.

Our website offers a glimpse into life at Wadhurst, but it cannot fully capture the warmth, energy and joy that make our school such a special place to learn and grow. We hope that as you explore our website, you gain a sense of the strong values, exciting opportunities and caring relationships that define our community.

If you are considering Wadhurst for your child, we would be delighted to welcome you for a visit. Meeting our children and staff and experiencing the school in person is the best way to discover what makes Wadhurst so special.

Thank you for taking the time to visit our website. We hope you enjoy learning more about our school and all that we have to offer.

Our door is always open, and we look forward to welcoming you to Wadhurst CE Primary School & Nursery.
