Forest school is fun because we make tents and we have hot chocolate and chocolate biscuits and after we play all together and we tidy up then we get our home things.

We would like to say a very big THANK YOU to Miserden Estates for giving us a new field. We are very lucky children as the new field is right next to the school so we can use it at lunchtimes and break times when it is dry.
Over the past few weeks our youngest pupils have enjoyed watching tractors and diggers preparing and levelling our new sports field. Our pupils can’t wait until the spring when they will have lots of space to run around, play football and do PE. Looking forward to Sports Day next summer.

Our new topic, The Wild, Wild West has really captured the children's imagination this week - Mrs Priestly, our wonderful Forest School trained teacher, gave everyone a taste of the Wild West by organising a 'WOW' day...and it really was a 'wow!!' day...

Miserden Primary School went on a day out to visit The Roman Baths (as part of their current topic) - and judging by the photographs it looks like they all had a fab day!

So the first Friday back at school was a 'WOW' day...all the pupils got to dress up as Romans as part of their new topic, which is entitled, “Up, Pompeii Up “ and will focus on learning about the Romans, their lives, key events and historical figures as well as the impact they had on Britain.
During our “Le Chocolat” topic the children spent time learning about healthy eating. This involved finding out how much sugar is in their favourite chocolate bars, but also focused on the eatwell plate, which teaches us about nutrition and ensuring that we eat a healthy, balanced diet of food.
Children learnt about the history of chocolate, its origins (where it came from), who discovered it and what raw cocoa nibs taste like. This led us to examine fair-trade and the children learnt about its importance in ensuring that farmers received a fairer return for their hard work.
Towards the end of our topic on chocolate, we received a special visit… the original golden ticket from the Charlie and the chocolate factory film was brought in to our school!
My granddaughter invited me to 'Golden Book Assembly'. What can I say that will really be enough for how I felt when I sat there in the hall enveloped by such caring, loving and interested staff, pupils and parents (including grand parents). Every child was given a certificate for not just academic work but also for their caring friendship towards each other.
My 3 daughters have all loved Miserden Primary school and have done really well here under its nurturing environment.
Starting with Miserden last year was the best thing we've ever done. Kind, caring faculty and staff have made school a safe, nurturing environment in which to grow and learn.
Miserden is a lovely community set in unbelievably beautiful surroundings. we couldn't be happier!
We have always loved the friendly, warm, inclusive environment in the school itself, which is surrounded by the calm, peaceful beauty of the rural setting of Miserden Village. Everyone involved in the school brings a special spirit which nurtures the us all and welcomes anyone new.
For what the school lacks in numbers it makes up for in friendliness. The schools feels like an extension of our family. The small class numbers where everyone in the school really does know your name has enabled our children to feel safe happy and encouraged in the start of their education.
As Miserden is a small school the staff know my daughter well, they care and want her to reach her full potential. I love how the children work and interact with all ages and not just their own age group.
I love that there is plenty of outdoor space and the woods on their doorstep. Forest school is a real adventure taking advantage of the beautiful surroundings Miserden has to offer.
The staff are very friendly and approachable and always happy to answer any questions. They genuinely care about each pupil and want the best for them.
I know that while my daughter is at school she is safe, well cared for, listened to, working to her full potentail and most importantly she is happy.
Thank you to all the staff, parents and children for making Miserden School the wonderful friendly place it is.
The support and care my children are given is second to none, many thanks to all members of staff.
My children love coming to school that speaks volumes as a parent. The school presents varied learning opportunities ie: forest school and creative curriculum. Teaching staff are great Thanks all.
We have been thrilled with our children’s short time at Miserden and it has been very positive experience for us so far. Thank you for the opportunity for the children to come and join in with Miserden school.
Miserden has always been a great school and it is going from strength to strength. Kids all enjoy it and I am very pleased how any problems are sorted out and how lucky we are to have a very approachable school Bursar and Administrator.
