  • South Downs National Park article

    Published 31/03/23

    Just before the COVID Lockdowns, we were bestowed the honour of being the first Ambassador School (one of only two in the whole of the national park!) for the South Downs National Park. This is in recognition of our curriculum; links to the national park; our enrichment opportunities and commitment to developing our outdoor spaces for learning and play.  We are also the only school that has invited other schools, from outside the SDNP, to use Droxford for a base of learning and camping onsite.

    For more information on how the National park has promoted us this month, please see the article below.

  • New Cherry trees appear during Dig Day

    Published 31/03/23

    Another successful day.  We have planted two new ornamental Cherry trees at the front of the school to match the rest that we have.  Volunteers grafted away preparing the soil in the planters on the playground and then planted many new pollinator friendly plants.  The staffroom was repainted as was the main storage shed in the carpark.  A lot of weeding, pruning and other planting was achieved ready for Spring / Summer growth.  Thank you all for helping out!!!
