‘Shipley is a lovely school.’ Parent comment, July 2021 At Shipley, our rich and exciting curriculum equips children with the skills and knowledge they need to be lifelong learners. Learning is fun, connected and full of new experiences. Children are nurtured and supported by experienced staff and there are high academic expectations. We make the most of our beautiful, traffic-free surroundings with plenty of opportunities for learning outside the classroom.
Come and see for yourself what makes Shipley such a special place to learn and grow – we look forward to welcoming you. Call the office on (01403) 741298 or email office@shipley.w-sussex.sch.uk Headteacher: Mrs Jen Harvey, School Lane, Shipley, Horsham, RH13 8PL

Billingshurst Wednesday Group remain active despite lockdown During the pandemic the Wednesday Group have continued to ‘shine’ to people in our community and have kept in touch with about 80 people, meeting up in small groups, when allowed, for coffee mornings, etc and to share friendship in difficult times. Recently we have taken on our own ‘Captain Tom Challenge’ to drink 100 coffees in 100 days to raise £100. We achieved this – actually about £200 – and this will be distributed to local charities including Chestnut Tree House, the Air Ambulance and to our local Macmillan Group. This group of older folk has shown that despite living in difficult times we can help others in their difficult times – not bad for a bunch of oldies (nearly all 70+!). Hazel Barnes
