From the Thwaites School
Welcome to Thwaites School, everyone! Although our school is a busy place with a lot going on, we are also quite nice and accepting. We are extremely proud of our school. Our school is located in a lovely rural area on the outskirts of the Lake District. We have wonderful opportunity to learn about the world around us at places like Black Combe, the Duddon Estuary, and our own Fox Wood. Our website seeks to provide current information for parents, students, and the larger community while also giving you a taste of all the amazing things we get up to at our school. Please be patient while we get our website fully operational, as it is still rather new. We sincerely hope you enjoy browsing our website and discover the details you're looking for. Please get in touch with Sandra in our office if you'd like a complimentary paper copy of any of the information on our school website.
