Finchingfield C of E Primary Academy and Nursery

We are excited to invite all children and their families to our Nursery Stay & Play session on 12th June from 9am to 10am! The session is free, and to book a place, please email [email protected]

This month’s theme is seaside, so there will be plenty of fun, hands-on activities to explore and enjoy.

We can’t wait to see you at our Nursery for a morning full of curiosity, creativity, and seaside fun!

This afternoon, Class 1 had a lovely session at the Finchingfield Library with Jane and Catherine.

The children thoroughly enjoyed exploring a range of books, listening to stories, and taking part in engaging activities.

Thank you to Jane and Catherine for making the visit such an enjoyable and enriching experience for everyone. 📚✨

🌟 First Day Back of Summer Term 2! 🌟

What a busy day it has been across the school! It has been wonderful to welcome everyone back after half term.

Here's to a brilliant half term ahead!

☀️📚✨

A huge well done to Class 2!

Our Year 2 and Year 3 children have now completed their swimming sessions at the Stambourne swim4life.co.uk pool, kindly funded by the Finche Community Group.

We are incredibly lucky to have such a supportive community that helps provide these wonderful opportunities for our children. Thank you to everyone involved for helping our pupils build confidence, develop important life skills and enjoy their swimming experience! 🏊‍♂️🏊‍♀️

Sports Day 2026! 🏃☀️

We are so proud of all of our children for taking part, showing determination, teamwork and great sportsmanship throughout the morning. Every child gave it their all and cheered each other on brilliantly!

A huge thank you to all the families who joined us to support the children, and a special thank you to Mrs Warren for all of her hard work helping to organise and set up the morning. We couldn’t do it without you! 👏💙

As a result of generous donations from our wonderful supporters, we are able to fund some valuable projects in our local schools. This week is and we partnered with The Laughter Specialists Charitable Trust to share the benefits and impact of laughter on our mental health with the pupils from Finchingfield School on Friday. In a world which isn't always fun, it's great that we are able to fund projects like this for local children!

As part of Mental Health Awareness Week, we were delighted to welcome the The Laughter Specialists Charitable Trust into school today! 😊

The sessions were full of smiles, laughter and positivity, helping to support the children’s wellbeing and reminding us all of the importance of joy, connection and taking time to look after our mental health.

A huge thank you to the Creamer Fund for kindly funding this experience for our children. We are looking forward to continuing to work closely with the Creamer Fund to provide even more opportunities and experiences for our pupils in the future. 💙
