Thank you for taking the time to find out more about our school for your child. Choosing a primary school can be daunting – you may feel a little overwhelmed with information and have lots of questions to ask. 

We are thrilled to announce that we will be running Reception Open Days for prospective families throughout the year. We have always enjoyed and valued these sessions as they provide you with a real insight into life at Hanbury’s Farm. Here you will have the opportunity to talk through the admissions process with the EYFS Team, ask questions and show you around the Reception Classroom environment.

For more information, Contact Hanbury's Farm or visit Staffordshire School Admissions
