Aire View is the local community school. It endeavours to serve all the children of Silsden and neighbouring areas, including those with specific needs. New ways of providing contact and support for younger children and their
families are constantly being introduced to help provide a sense of involvement with Aire View. This helps to make
the transition from home to school an easy one and one which is eagerly anticipated when young children join with
local friends and neighbours for their early education through the toddler group and nursery.
