Welcome
Although I can tell you what I believe makes Astwood Bank so special, look at the school through the eyes of the people who make it what it is – our pupils, staff and parents.
Our aim is to offer all pupils a broad and stimulating curriculum that recognises the importance of providing pupils with the basic skills of literacy and numeracy. We want the children in our care to sparkle, to reach their full potential and learn skills for life through a creative curriculum. We hope they will look back fondly with treasured memories of their time at Astwood Bank Primary School.

🌟 THEY DID IT! 🌟
A massive THANK YOU to everyone who sponsored our two amazing teachers, Mrs Morris & Mrs Stack, for the Bournemouth Pier to Pier swim! 🏊♀️🏊♂️
They officially conquered the 1.4-mile open water challenge and, thanks to your incredible generosity, they raised a phenomenal £3,592 for the British Heart Foundation! ❤️
This money will go directly toward funding lifesaving research to help those affected by heart and circulatory diseases. We are so incredibly proud of our teachers for making a splash for such a vital cause, and they couldn’t have hit this milestone without your support 🙌🏼 Be sure to congratulate them in the morning 👏🏼
🏅SPORTS DAY 🏅
Ready, set, GO! 👟🏆 We are gearing up for a fantastic Sports Day on Tuesday, filled with energy, friendly competition, and plenty of fun ✨
The sun will be out shining ☀️ & it’s sure to be a sweaty one 🥵 so please make sure you remember to slather on the suncream🧴, pop on those hats 🧢 & bring plenty of water💧
We wouldn’t want to be like Team Unprepared (see photo 6), who have foolishly forgotten to wear the right kit 🤦🏻♀️ Be smart like Team Prepared 👍🏼
Now, start practicing those egg-and-spoon skills! 🥚🥄🏅🏃♂️💨
P.S. No teachers were harmed during the making of these videos 😎
