Our Ethos

A small federation of small schools in South Norfolk. We are making the schools that we would have wanted to go to. By working together in collaboration, we improve one another and support each other to grow. Sunflowers are known for their resilience and symbolise hope, happiness, and growth. Our federation nurtures childrens’ academic, personal, and spiritual growth. It inspires children, staff, and parents to strive for excellence in all aspects of their life, just as sunflowers grow towards the sun and reach their full potential.

The roots, for Brooke CE VC’s church foundations, indicate that we are rooted and grounded in God's love, which is at the core of all our actions and educational philosophy. The stem represents our curriculum, which provides a strong foundation for our children across both schools to grow and thrive. The leaves symbolise our values, which drive our decision-making and behaviour. The petals are indicative of our key focuses such as DEI, careers, and compassion. Lastly, the bees and butterflies that are flying away from the sunflower represent the things that we want our children to leave us with, which are the skills, knowledge, and attitudes needed to make a positive impact in the world.

PE

At Brooke we are fortunate to have a fantastic PE program that not only teaches children key skills, but also helps promotes the values and wider ethos of our school.

Through PE we embed our school values of togetherness, resilience, love, kindness and wisdom, through our focus on team skills, pupil led activities and the idea that to learn effectively children must learn from their mistakes. We encourage children to develop their language around different sports, dances, and skills to allow them to have a rich vocabulary within the subject area which encourages them to explain what they have learned and develop their confidence in speaking publicly. We aim to introduce children to a wide array of activities and sports from different disciplines and backgrounds enabling them to have a range of different experiences and focus on key sportspersons to draw motivation from.

At Brooke Primary School, we utilise the School Sports Partnership (SSP) to give our Year 1-6 pupils the opportunity participate in a range of competitive and engaging sporting events such as cross-country, football, basketball, cricket, rugby, hockey, dance and dodgeball. These events are a brilliant experience for our pupils who get to experience sport in a variety of excellent sporting facilities such as the UEA Sportspark, Langley School, Wymondham Rugby Club and Harleston Magpies Hockey Club. As a school we strive to have as many pupils as possible experience these events to encourage a passion for sport and physical activity.
