Welcome to South Bersted Primary School

It is my pleasure to welcome you to our website. I hope it helps to inform you about our aims and ethos, which are underpinned by the school’s Christian distinctiveness and values. At South Bersted Church of England Primary School, we strongly believe in building positive working relationships; working collaboratively with our families to provide our children with the best opportunities educationally, socially and emotionally.

At South Bersted Church of England Primary School, our school vision is underpinned by John 10;10, ‘Life in all its fullness.’ Our vision is to ensure that effective teaching and a creative, child centred approach, together with an emphasis on Christian Values and beliefs, enables all learners to embrace challenges and become life long learners in a safe, secure and nurturing environment. We are committed to enriching pupils’ moral and spiritual development inspiring all to become caring, responsible 21st century global citizens.

Year 3 had an excellent trip to Butser Ancient Farm. We explored the buildings that have been recreated to show how people lived in the past. We saw Stone Age huts, Saxon longhouses, a fabulous Celtic village and even spent time in the rebuilt Roman Villa. All of the building are based on evidence from archaeological sites across the UK and have been made with the tools that people had at the time. We even carried out an archaeological dig of our own. After lunch, we each made a copper ring to wear. Finally, we were put to work crushing chalk using hammer stones and wooden mallets. Our leader mixed the crushed chalk with hay, soil and water to make clunch. We then daubed this lovely sludge onto a building in the Celtic village to leave our mark on Butser. All of Year 3 can now say that they helped to build a building there. Tired but happy, our coach then brought us back to school in time to head home. ... See MoreSee Less

You guys were awesome. Truly lovely bunch of kids, I made some new friends (grown-ups were pretty cool too)

Well done year 3

During RSHE week, Year 3 have been learning about water and sun safety. On Wednesday, they were visited by Martin Willard from the RNLI and learnt key information on water safety. To then help deepen other’s understanding of how to keep safe, pupils in Year 3 led today’s Collective Worship. They explained the risks of being near open water and the steps that we can all take to keep ourselves and others safe. Pupils learnt about the meaning of the beach flags, sun safety and the Water Safety Code.

Last week, we were also visited by Southern Water who delivered their Coastal Rangers session. The Collective Worship focused on how we can keep coastal spaces clean, the environmental impact of our actions and further information on how we can stay safe at the beach. ... See MoreSee Less
