Orchard Park Community Primary School

A place where children are empowered to reach their full potential, with the highest possible aspirations and passion for learning. With values and respect, our children are confident to move from our nurturing environment to explore and succeed in the wider world.

Welcome to Bumblebees Class!


In Bumblebees, we build on key skills and accelerate learning as children prepare for the move to Key Stage 2. We focus on transitioning from phonics to spelling, developing independence, building reasoning in maths, and becoming fluent readers—all within a safe, supportive, and challenging environment.

We set high expectations across the curriculum, encouraging learners to work independently and collaboratively in line with our school values. Learning is brought to life through exciting experiences such as trips to Woburn Safari Park and Rockingham Castle, along with themed days like Australia Day and Goldilocks Day.

Our curriculum themes include:

  • What a Wonderful World

  • Tale as Old as Time

  • Fire! Fire!

  • The Circle of Life

  • All Aboard!

  • Dungeons and Dragons
