From the Little Houghton Church of England Primary
For kids between the ages of 4 and 11, Little Houghton CE Primary School is a voluntary-aided primary school. Due to the School's expansive location, the students have easy access to a playing field, playground, and outdoor learning area. The present school building was purpose built in 1967, but has undergone improvement and extension since that time to provide four classrooms, a library, a hall, an additional classroom, an outdoor covered play area and a multi use games area (MUGA). At Little Houghton CE Primary School we value every member of our school family children, parents, staff, governors and members of the community near and far. To make our school a joyful, secure place to learn, we all have a part to play. We welcome opportunities to work together to further develop our school through, for example, the School Council or the fund raising and social activities offered by the Friends of Little Houghton School. We are also part of The Ashby Cluster, a group of five small rural schools including: Cogenhoe Primary, Denton Primary, Grendon CE Primary and Yardley Hastings Primary schools. In order to develop the school, the staff and students collaborate closely.
