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

Celebrating Our Star Award Winners! Earlier this week, schools from across the Four Cs Multi-Academy Trust came together to celebrate the incredible achievements of pupils at the Star Awards. The awards recognise children who consistently demonstrate one of our Trust values: Curiosity, Confidence, Courage or Constancy. Parents and carers were invited to join the celebration and hear heartfelt speeches from staff about the positive impact each child has on school life and within our community. We are incredibly proud to share that one of our Year 5 pupils received the Curiosity Award, while one of our Year 4 pupils was recognised with the Confidence Award. Their enthusiasm for learning, determination and positive attitudes make them wonderful role models, and we couldn't be prouder of all they have achieved. Congratulations to both of our deserving winners – you truly embody our Trust values and are a credit to Hampton Vale Primary Academy!

Year 6 - Inflatables Day! On Wednesday, our Year 6 children enjoyed their infamous Inflatables Day, and what a fantastic time everyone had! There were smiles, laughter, and plenty of splashing as the children celebrated together after all of their hard work this year. With the hot weather, the water was certainly welcomed, making it the perfect way to cool off while creating memories that will last a lifetime! A wonderful example of our value of Constancy, as our Year 6 pupils have shown incredible dedication and perseverance throughout their time at Hampton Vale. It was fantastic to see them rewarded with such a fun-filled day before they begin their next exciting chapter.
