Junior School

Moyles Court Junior School provides children with a safe and happy environment for learning. We are a small community aware of the varying needs of each individual child. We endeavour to keep Junior School classes small, thereby ensuring a close working relationship between teachers and pupils.

We encourage a calm and friendly atmosphere, where children are respected and valued.

The beautiful setting of The New Forest makes break times adventurous and magical. Learning, play and extra curricular activities are encouraged throughout the junior years, as we recognise the important role they all play in a child's development. We encourage a calm and friendly atmosphere, where children are respected and valued, allowing them to grow into a successful member of society.

Lessons

Lessons are delivered to make learning enjoyable and purposeful. All core academic subjects are taught through the National Curriculum, most by form teacher, giving the opportunity for cross-curricular links where appropriate. The Junior School has its own library, specifically geared for the younger reader.

It is an inviting place for motivating reading and library use skills. We also have use of a computer suite and superb sports facilities. Children are encouraged with dance, music and singing and have the opportunity of small group lessons within their school day, by expert tutors in these fields. An enticing selection of after school clubs provides children with the opportunity to try out new skills and work alongside other year groups.

New ideas and innovations

We are currently looking into children's relaxation techniques and 'Brain Gym' activities. These are helpful for all children and encourage skill progression in areas such as co-ordination, hand writing, reading and organisational skills.

The Eco Team provides the environmental and sustainable awareness needed for our futures and an understanding of respect for our picturesque surroundings here at Moyles Court. Older junior school pupils are able to relay important messages to our younger children through feedback in assemblies and class time.

Our school garden is a chance for 'hands on' learning styles. Children thoroughly enjoy the rewards which gardening brings. It helps children to see how plants, flowers and vegetables are grown and realise there is more to food than taking it from a supermarket shelf.

Moyles Court Junior School is a co-educational school providing day and boarding facilities. To find out more look around our website and pay us a visit. See you soon!
