As a school we would also like to say we are here to support both parents and children. If you ever have any questions, support or would like to discuss anything please do not hesitate to reach out

I would like to take this opportunity to welcome you to the website of Sunnyvale Primary School. We hope you enjoy this visit and that it will give you a brief insight of our busy and vibrant school.

We aim to give you a taster of the school, as well as providing up to date information for parents, pupils and wider community.

This can only be achieved by close co-operation between school and home.

The school opened to the community in 1975 and has continued to grow in recent years.

We will always be available to talk to you about any aspect of your child’s development. We hope you will share with us in making this a successful period in your child’s life.

Ms Holly Owens

(Principal)
