Unfortunately, one parent hadn't heard the news that our admissions have now closed and we are over-subscribed for our 2025 intake. 

Earlier this week, a determined duck and her fluffy entourage of nine ducklings attempted to enrol at Priory - clearly impressed by our reputation for outstanding facilities and pastoral care! 

After a brief (and very cute) attempt to waddle through the front doors, they were sent on their way. However, Mother Duck wasn’t having any of it and has taken refuge in the Mediterranean Garden until we receive her appeal. 

While we can’t offer them a timetable or a locker, we’re happy to welcome them as honorary members of our school community. Their arrival has certainly added a splash of joy and we’ll be keeping a close eye on their progress as they settle into their temporary waterside accommodation.

It’s not every day you get a reminder of how lucky we are to work in such a beautiful, nature-rich environment, but this little family certainly made sure we didn’t forget!
