| Swarland Community First School is situated in
north Northumberland. We are a village school serving the villages of
Longframlington, Newton -on- the- Moor and Swarland. We also have a number
of pupils from outlying villages in the area.
The school was built in 1937 though there have been a number of
additions to the original building. Our playing fields are extensive
and weather permitting we try to make full use of them, whether it is
looking for mini-beasts, playing games of simply sitting under the
trees listening to a story.
Recently the children in Years 3 and 4 designed and painted the playground area. They also designed the layout for the tyre play on both the playground and field areas. The whole school, along with the Home, School
Association is looking at how we can further develop Creative play outdoors. We are in the process of developing an outdoor play area for the Foundation stage children in both school and Pre-school.
