Our core values
It is my pleasure to be the headteacher of Kidmore End CE Primary School. Kidmore End is a happy, learning-filled primary school, where every individual is valued and can flourish. Kidmore End School first opened its doors in 1856 to eight pupils. We have grown over the years and we now accommodate up to 210 pupils in seven classes. In August 2017, we became an academy as part of the Oxford Diocesan Schools Trust (ODST).
"The consistent and dedicated care, kindness and support for all pupils is tangible throughout the whole staff team."

"Our boys have received exemplary care & education, all wrapped in an incredibly warm & supportive environment."
"What a wonderful year! This is down to the support, nurturing, & the fun & inspiring teaching you have both given to them. "
"Thank you so much for all your hard work put into helping support our son, we are happy that we chose Kidmore End!"
"The teachers in the class & the woodland retreat have all made school a safe and accessible place for our son. Thank you for all you do!"
"You have built a brilliant school, atmosphere & approach. I am so delighted my son has joined your school. "
"Thank you for your genuine care. It really does mean the world and has made a difference to my daughter. "

School council representatives from Key Stage 2 delivered donations to Springwater Foodbank in Sonning common this morning. They conscientiously checked use by dates and stocked the shelves. Thank you to all of the families who generously donated to our harvest collection. The foodbank supports around 45 households every fortnight in the Sonning Common area. You can donate to the foodbank at any time at a variety of locations including coop and St John's church next door to school. #HarvestFestival #donations #foodbank #sonningcommon
Race for the bass! The determination, perseverance and community spirit on show during our sponsored run was impressive to see across the whole school. The pupils were sponsored to move around the track without stopping for between 15 minutes in Cherry class, through to a massive 40 minutes in Birch class! The children supported and encouraged each other to keep walking, running or even dancing for their target time, all to raise money for our school. Well done to the staff too, who led by example; leading their classes around the running track. Thank you to everyone who sponsored the children. Sponsorship is open until Wednesday.

Our year 5 and 6 netballers had the most fantastic time at the netball tournaments hosted by Gillotts School this week. For many, it was their first time playing a match outside of their PE lesson or the netball club. We are so proud of their enthusiasm, resilience and teamwork. Our year 6s came third, and our year 5s came first ! Well done to everyone who participated, they were happy, competitive yet supportive afternoons in the autumn sunshine. Thank you to Mrs Watkins-Cooke for organising such a fabulous event and to the fantastic sports leaders at Gillotts for leading and umpiring each match. #henleyschools #netball #SportInSchool #competition #funinthesun
