Poolewe Primary
School is a rural school set beside the beautiful River Ewe in the
village of Poolewe. The school has a pleasant outlook, with a
tree-fringed playing field to the north. Parents and the community are
working to improve the field by putting in drainage. The playground at
the back has recently been resurfaced and has been marked with
playground games. There is a demountable unit in the playground, which
at present is used as storage, but it is hoped that this space can be
developed into a more useful area for the children.The School consists of two classrooms, a general-purpose area used for Drama, PE and other activities and a dining room. From Spring 2004 there will be a rolling programme of refurbishment, which aims to progressively upgrade décor, furniture and utilities. The schools learning and teaching resources are under review and are upgraded as and when it is felt necessary and finance permits. Parents wishing to pick children up can park opposite the church.
The Nursery is housed in the old school house attached to the school and has its own entrance. The nursery has its own garden and grass area. The nursery children use the tarred area at the back of the school as well.
At present there are 15 children in the upper classes and 11 children in the lower classes. There are 8 children in the nursery.
