Welcome

Higham-on-the-Hill Church Of England Primary School

Welcome to our wonderful, village school

Mrs Rebecca Dolby-Molson, Executive Headteacher

We are a small, rural, village primary school in the heart of England. With only three classes, we are able to create a very warm and happy environment for everyone who learns, works and plays here. The class teachers are supported by learning support assistants.

Our school hours are 8:30am to 3:00pm. Our doors open at 8:15am to allow children a 15 minute window to arrive before we start our day at 8:30am.

Our facilities are wide ranging. Every term we run a variety of clubs after school hours such as Forest School, FunStar, Science Club and Multi-Sport Club.

We are blessed with extensive school grounds, including a large playground, ActivAll boards, a trim trail, large playing field and a pond area. These grounds are used regularly as the school has an outdoor learning focus. Our curriculum is exciting and engaging, with topics being enhanced by external trips and visitors to school. From Year 5, children learn to play a musical instrument, receiving tuition from a specialist teacher who visits from Leicestershire Music once a week. A modern foreign language is taught to children in Key Stage 2 and children in Years 5 and 6 swim at Hinckley Leisure Centre.

As a Church of England primary school, we have extensive links with St. Peter's Church, visiting often and welcoming clergy into school. At St. Peters, we hold Harvest, Christingle, Easter and Year 6 Leavers services over the year.

We welcome visits to our school. Please contact our school office.
