Community Events

Junior Day of Discovery

These free to attend, annual open community events are a celebration of encouraging young minds to interact, explore and enjoy a festival style event under a single theme hosted at Cranford School. This autumn we will be hosting our ninth year of Junior Discovery Days. Visiting parents and families from Pre-School to Year 6 are welcome to join in the sights, sounds and activities across the school grounds on the day. Local reputation has spread over the years and it is an event to be marked in the calendar. 



Thank you for making our Junior Day of Discovery 2025 such a huge success!

Blessed by fair weather and rays of sunshine, the circus came to life at Cranford for our ninth Junior Day of Discovery. Thank you so much to all of the lovely families who attended our community event here at Cranford this year. The atmosphere at school was amazing, and seeing so many happy, wide-eyed children enjoying the morning was simply magical. Fundraising efforts resulted in over a thousand pounds being donated to The Children's National Air Ambulance.
