Sissinghurst(VA) Church of England
Primary School
Welcome to Sissinghurst
We are a flourishing Church of England school set at the heart of a beautiful Kent village. As you arrive at our school, we hope that you will feel the sense of community and joyfulness which is created by our wonderful staff team and fantastic children.
We are blessed with a vibrant school community including passionate staff, children who are eager to learn, supportive parents and FOSS (Friends of Sissinghurst School). We aim to ensure every child is valued and cherished and that they have enjoyed many wonderful experiences to prepare them for the next stage in their education by the time they leave us.
We are a growing school and have places currently in Y2 and Y6 (Sept 2026). Call the office or use the contact us button above if you would like your child to join us or to book a tour to see what we can offer your child.

In science this week we have been learning that solutions are mixtures where one substance dissolves in another. We tested mixing different substances in water to see which were soluble and then used our scientific language to explain what we had learnt. @kapow_primary

Not quite the same in this new age of no faces but you can see from the smiles what a wonderful time was had. A fantastic thank you and well done to our Rawlinson runners. They all ran their race, finishing in great positions! Well done to Joe who won a medal for coming 2nd in his race. Also, to Rosie and Madeline for finishing in 4th place. Each race, for gender and year group starting with the year 2 girls, had around 50 to 60 children participating. Well done team!
