We are extremely proud of all the children and staff at Orchard Primary Academy and love having people to visit. We also enjoy hearing positive comments from our visitors, parents and the local community. Below are some recent comments that we have received.

Can I just say ORCHARD!!

SO SO proud of you....SO SO pleased you are one of my Schools!!

You were really outstanding!!....An unbelievable effort....You really did embrace the day......and your tweets....well what can one say.

There were a handful of Schools across WY posting regular tweets but if there was a comp for most tweets, original tweets, moving picture tweets, variation tweets, content tweets yada yada yada..

YOU WOULD HAVE WON GOLD.....COMFORTABLY!!

"It's been an absolute pleasure to be invited to share our 'Super Food Fight' healthy eating concept in Orchard Primary Academy. The children have embraced the drama with enthusiasm and the crafts with creativity and ideas. Thank you for looking after us and for providing such a welcoming, fun and friendly environment where children can learn whilst developing ideas and skills."

Friendly and supportive staff, lovely display work celebrating children's achievements and most importantly the calming effect you feel the moment you enter the building."
