Children love our school

I like school because everyone knows you and you know everyone. The teachers are really nice and even if you have a particular friend, you can always get another one because everyone is so friendly.

I like playing with my friends. I like going pond dipping during our forest school sessions.

I like reading books at school. We have lots of books at Barford.

I like playing with everyone and learning lots.

I have been here for a while now and I like being in a small school because I know everyone. The surroundings are nice, it isn't too crowded. My favourite thing is being able to learn new things, even if they are hard.

I've been here since Reception, in Year 2 I moved house, but I did not want to move schools because Barford is so homely, I have so many friends.

I really like this school because the classes are mixed, it means you get to work with a range of ages and all the teachers really know you.

I like Maths because we work out problems together. I like seeing my friends too.

The teachers are totally brilliant. They make it so fun. My favourite thing at school is Maths.

Our school is the best, it is better than all the rest. The people are really nice.
