From the Wilbury Junior School
Wilbury Junior School is happy to serve children and their families as a hub of the neighbourhood. We offer a supportive environment where everyone connected to the school is committed to giving your kid the greatest opportunity possible. The atmosphere at the school is friendly, as you'll discover. Children are curious, eager to learn, and self-assured. They are polite, sociable, and supportive of one another at work and at leisure activities. Years 3-6 are taught at the three-form junior high school known as Wilbury Junior School. There are 360 spots available for students between the ages of seven and eleven. As a school we value parents, carers and members of the community and all are made welcome to a range of school events, encouraged to attend workshops or reading sessions, accompany trips or help in the class or around school. I would strongly advise you to get in touch with the school and arrange to visit if Wilbury Junior School is something you are thinking about for your child. I will be more than happy to introduce you to our school community, and I am confident that you will be impressed by the level of instruction we can provide for your child. As a school, we are not yet where we want to be, but we are making every effort to move in that direction. I am Ms. Atkins, and I began working at Wilbury in April 2019. I will give Wilbury everything I have to get to where it deserves to be. 'I want Wilbury Junior School to be a happy learning community, with high academic standards, achievement for all, partnership and a love of learning, to become a centre of excellence with a broad and balanced curriculum.'.
