Welcome to Millfield Primary School!

Giving every child the chance to succeed and be happy.

Welcome to Millfield Primary School, a happy, vibrant, inclusive and active school at the heart of the North Walsham community. At Millfield, we believe in nurturing every child’s potential through our core values of Courage, Ambition, Respect, Excellence, and Spirit. These values shape everything we do - from the way we learn and play, to how we support one another and celebrate success.

Our ethos, Millfield CARES, is more than a motto - it’s a commitment shared by staff, pupils and families alike. We care deeply about creating a safe, inspiring environment where children feel valued, challenged and supported.

We are proud to offer an ambitious and vocabulary-rich curriculum that opens doors to opportunity and empowers children to thrive. Reading is at the heart of our school culture - we promote it passionately and purposefully, knowing that it unlocks imagination, builds confidence, and helps children explore the world around them. Through high-quality texts, rich discussions and a focus on language development, we help every child become a fluent, thoughtful and enthusiastic reader.

We are fortunate to have extensive grounds that enrich our curriculum, from our jungle gym and Forest Schools woodland area to our large field and specialist Reception spaces, our site is designed to spark curiosity and creativity. 

This website offers a glimpse into life at Millfield and provides regularly updated information for parents, carers and pupils. If you have any questions or would like to know more, please don’t hesitate to contact us.

Thank you for visiting - we hope you enjoy exploring Millfield Primary School.
