Gateway School

For one this might be academic studies, for another sport, whilst another might find their forte in music.

A co-educational independent preparatory school for children age 2-11.⭐️ Great Missenden, Bucks
https://www.gatewayschool-bucks.co.uk/blog/2025/01/10/a-warm-welcome-from-ms-selby/ Our core belief is that education is not just about academic success; it is about building a foundation that gives each child the confidence and skills they need to be the best they can be now and in the future. At Gateway School, all pupils have the opportunity to challenge themselves and to strive to be the best they can be.

💚 Harvest Giving: Making a Difference in Our Community! 🌾

A huge thank you to our wonderfully generous Gateway families for their Harvest Festival donations! This year, we were delighted to share the spirit of Harvest by supporting Chiltern Foodbank, based in Chesham.

Our enthusiastic children were more than happy to roll up their sleeves and help load the van, making sure the donations were ready to support local individuals and families who need them most. 🚐🥫

It was wonderful to see our children putting kindness into action and learning the importance of helping others. Together, we can make a real difference in our local community!

Thank you, Gateway families, for helping us spread kindness this Harvest. 💚🌾

From everyone at Gateway, we would like to wish our wonderful Year 6 pupils the very best of luck as they sit their 11+ examination.

This is a special moment in your journey, and we are incredibly proud of the hard work, determination and resilience you have shown along the way. Whatever the outcome, remember that your success is not defined by one exam. Believe in yourselves, be proud of how far you have come and give it your very best.

Today, we have been delighted to welcome all our pupils back to the Gateway community after the summer break.

The buzz of children shaking Mr Coke’s hand and heading back into school for a brand new year is something we have certainly missed over the holidays. It has been wonderful to see the school come alive again with excited chatter, happy faces and the promise of another year of learning, friendships and adventures.

A very warm welcome to all our new joiners, and welcome back to all our familiar faces. We are so excited for the year ahead!

Go confidently into your future. The best chapters of your story are still waiting to be written. ❤️
