A Christmas Tree at Priory

We would like to place a real Christmas Tree in our Reception area at Priory this year.  Can you help?  Do you  know any local businesses which would be able to donate one, along with a stand?  We would then find a good home for another family to enjoy once school closes over Christmas.  If you can help, please call 01273 476231 x201 (Emma) or x312 (Amanda) or email ejh@priory.e-sussex.sch.uk.

Russ Cook, aka Hardest Geezer visit!

On Wednesday we had a very exciting visit from Russ Cook, aka Hardest Geezer! Last year, Russ accomplished his mission to be the first person to run the entire length of Africa, raising over a million pounds for charity and inspiring people worldwide. Russ shared his experiences with Year 7 and 8, talking about some of trials that he had to overcome and the power of persistence and teamwork in the face of adversity: "if you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together". Students were very excited to meet a local Sussex hero and were hopefully inspired to strive for adventure in their own futures.

Bikeability at Priory

This week we will have seen almost 40 Year 7 students complete their Bikeability Level 3 course, led by Sarah and Ed, the fantastic Bikeability Instructors from East Sussex County Council.  The course gives students the skills needed to navigate challenging roads and traffic situations and encourages them to think independently and make informed decisions.  One student said "The course is fun and great because we are learning how to ride safely on the road - I now know what 'giving way' means". If your child has missed the opportunity to attend one of our courses in school Bikeability also run courses during the holidays.  Click here to find out more.

Priory School Open Evening 2024

We held our highly successful Priory School Open Evening on Thursday, 19th September.  Our student speakers and student tour guides and department volunteers were the real stars of the show and one visitor took the time to write in to share some lovely feedback "I attended your open evening tonight with my son; we loved our visit.  We were impressed by the staff and school but, more importantly, were so grateful to the lovely year 9 students who gave us a tour around the school.  They were friendly, engaging and beautifully mannered; if we'd have left it to them, they'd still have been showing us around the school at midnight!  They put my son at ease and really helped us understand the school.  They are a real credit to Lewes Priory and I hope their input can be acknowledged in some way."  Our students really are such a credit to the school.
