Thank you for taking the time to visit our website. We hope you find it a useful source of information and that it gives a good insight into our busy and friendly school.
Archibald Primary School, part of Endeavour Academies, is proud to be an inclusive place for children to learn.
Pupils in our school come from a wide range of backgrounds and cultures to share new experiences and learn from each other. Our aim is that all of our children feel welcomed, happy and fulfilled; recognising that they are all different and that these differences create opportunities for adults and children alike to learn more about themselves and each other.
Follow us on our social media to stay up to date with all the exciting things that are going on within our school.
KFC Youth foundation continue to support the school in many ways – including the ‘Girls Rising’ Group which meets each Friday afternoon.
Recently, the girls took part in the Canvas Change Challenge, where they worked in pairs. Each girl started by drawing something on her own canvas for five minutes. After the time was up, they swapped canvases with their partner and added to what the other person had already drawn. They continued swapping, building on the previous drawing. 🖌️🎨
By the end of the challenge, they had two canvases with designs that had been created together by both girls. 🖼️

🏹 🧗♂️🌳 Last week, Y5 pupils participated in our annual Peat Rigg Adventure - a week long residential experience where they took part in a range of activities including adventure games, zip lining, archery, bushcraft, abseiling, Jacob’s ladder and a forest adventure. They even had a go at orienteering in the dark!
All the pupils who attended had a great time, trying new things and having new adventures
and experiences with their friends.
Peat Rigg staff and instructors commented on how well behaved and polite the pupils were throughout their stay and how well they demonstrated their teamwork, leadership, organisation, resilience, initiative and communication skills in each challenge they faced.
Well done to all those who attended!
