Welcome
I have been a proud Headteacher of Hampton Vale Primary Academy, Seedlings and Little Seedlings Nursery for the past seven years and I have watched the school grow into an incredibly special place where children truly thrive. Our team of dedicated staff ensure that children are safe, happy and engaged throughout their time with us, and we are immensely proud of the excellent progress they make.
All children within our school and nursery experience a broad and balanced curriculum which stimulates their imagination, extends their knowledge, and nurtures a lifelong love of learning. We are fortunate to have a team of specialist teachers who deliver high-quality lessons in Music, Dance, Drama, PE, Art and Forest School – providing a rich and inspiring curriculum that allows every child to discover and develop their unique talents.
At Hampton Vale, we believe that education is about so much more than academic achievement. It is about developing confident, kind and resilient young people who are ready to take on the challenges of the future and contribute positively to the world around them. I am incredibly proud of our children and all that they achieve every day.
Mrs P. Chamberlain
Headteacher

Year 5 Harry Potter WOW Day Year 5 enjoyed a truly magical start to the new term with their Harry Potter 'Wow Day' on Monday. The children were first 'sorted' into their Hogwarts houses during a special ceremony, where they met their Professors before moving on to a range of exciting, book-inspired activities. These included designing their own house emblems, taking part in chaotic (but safe!) potion-making science experiments with Professor Snape, and creating imaginative spells inspired by J.K. Rowling's rich and creative language. The day was filled with wonder, creativity and excitement, making it an incredible and memorable experience for all.
