Book for our Discovery Morning
Discovery Mornings are a chance to explore the School on a normal working day.
You and your family will tour the School in the company of one of our pupils and will meet the senior team over tea and coffee.
Junior School (Reception – Year 6):
Wednesday 15 May 8.45am – 10am
Spaces at a Discovery Morning are limited so that you can have as much time as you need to see the School at your own pace and discuss your child as an individual.

Barnaby Bear is the Year One bear, who in normal circumstances, has letters written to him by the children so he can then visit them at their house for the weekend.At present, Barnaby's weekends away cannot take place, so the children were particularly excited to prepare and celebrate Barnaby's 6th birthday this year.The preparations included creating mind maps to plan the party, writing the invitations to the other teddy bears in the class, and creating wonderful party decorations including a 30 meter paper chain (just over 50 miles too short of a World Record but impressive all the same!)The final preparations included decorating individual cakes to create some very cute and delicious bear cupcakes.
Mrs McDermott, teacher of Key Stage one, said: "The children had a wonderful afternoon helping Barnaby celebrate his birthday. We played party games, sang Happy Birthday, helped Barnaby unwrap his present and of course ate our delicious bear cupcakes…at the end of the afternoon a very weary Barnaby Bear said goodbye to the children."In normal circumstances when Barnaby can visit the pupils at home, the children write up their adventures in Barnaby's diary and look after him, encouraging them to develop their independent writing and think about routines.
We hope that Barnaby can enjoy his weekends away once again very soon.For more news from Stamford Junior School, please click here.
