Horbury Primary Academy
Welcome
Horbury Primary Academy is a community where children become confident, caring individuals with high aspirations, an enduring enthusiasm for learning and the necessary skills to succeed in life.
At Horbury Primary Academy we believe that the child is at the centre of everything we do and we have tried to create a broad, balanced and creative curriculum to ensure that children are engaged in their learning and above all enjoy coming to school. We have enthusiastic, caring and professional staff who work hard to ensure this happens.
We want every child to reach their potential and our ultimate aim is to create a lifelong love of learning which gives children not only new skills, knowledge and understanding, but also key learning attributes that will enable them to succeed as they begin their path in life. We have a culture of learning in which we have high expectations of all children that enables them to achieve through challenge and support.
Happy #ThankATeacherDay! Today we celebrated our amazing teaching and support staff with a special treat - ice creams after school, enjoyed in our outdoor learning area! Thank you so much for everything you do to make our school community special. Your hard work and dedication helps to inspire, guide and support our children throughout their journey with us and beyond.
This morning our Year 3 children had a super exciting visit to Hickory's Smokehouse Horbury. As part of their topic on healthy bodies, they had a go at making (and tasting!) delicious fruit smoothies. They also had a tour of the kitchen and thought about what it would be like to work at a restaurant.

Year 3 children had a brilliant trip to Conisbrough Castle earlier this week. They loved exploring the castle grounds and the surrounding grassy areas, playing and learning about the long and fascinating history of this famous landmark. A big thank you to our staff for organising and the English Heritage team who supported our visit!

What a fabulous way to end the half term – a lunchtime picnic and ice lollies in the sunshine! The children had a great time eating, chatting and playing outside – and some lucky winners even found a golden sticker in their lunch bag, meaning they could claim a little treat like a bubble wand or yo-yo to play with.
