Background:

Coombe Hill Junior was built in 1970 when Clarence Avenue Primary was enlarged and split into separate infant and junior schools. The school is situated on a hill in wooded grounds. Facilites include a playing field, swimming pool, environmental areas and a pond. It is housed in a building divided into two bays, each containing four classrooms arranged around a central work area. Coombe Hill offers a range of extra-curriculuar activities which include soccer, cricket, netball, summer games, drama and country dancing. There is also an orchestra, recorder group and chior, together with gardening, environmental, young ornithologists, library and chess clubs. Day trips are organised throughout the year to 'enhance pupils education and awareness of the environment'. Residential trips are arranged for Year 5 and 6 pupils to Hindleap Warren Environment centre and the Isle of Wight Camp. The school is involved in fundraising and charity work throughout the year, working with local charities and sponsoring two children in India. There is a 'wide range' of children with backgrounds reflecting the Indian sub-continent, Japan and Korea, the Middle East and much of Europe. The school has an 'active' parents, teachers and friends association (PTFA), which organises fund raising and social events throughout the year.
