Drama Club update
This term year 3 and 4 have been learning about light and dark. We have been living and working together in Sunset City, and getting ready for a festival. However the sun wizard cast a spell which stopped the sun from setting, which ment we could not have our festival. This week the sun wizard vistited us and we agreed to help her overcome her fear of the dark ,if she allowed the sun to set. We all enjoyed meeting the sun wizard.

Banstead Community Junior School has a reputation for being a successful and friendly school.
We are very fortunate to have such wonderful facilities. These include three playgrounds, a sports field, a swimming pool, pond and wildlife area, a pavilion, trim trail and a Greek garden which we use as an outdoor classroom. The School building is divided into two buildings, housing eight classrooms, an art room, a music/learning room, a library, ICT Suite and a multi-purpose hall.
There are currently 277 children in the school, ages range from 7 to 11 years.
Our school aims are:
To create a secure, happy, caring and supportive community in which the confidence and self-esteem of every member can grow.
To ensure that the curriculum is broad and balanced and within which every pupil has the opportunity to achieve their full potential.
To ensure pupils become independent in their learning and to develop positive attitudes and values towards others in the school and community.
