The school was opened on the 3rd of September 1970. The first head teacher was Mr Benton. Back then the children came to school by bus. There were 147 children when the school was opened and now there are 456. The most children that there ever was on the school register was 486. On the first day there was one small disaster, the potato peeling machine broke down! The school was built on the old Martlesham airfield near the control tower where Douglas Bader flew from. The rocket on the adventure playground was an old fuel tank from his plane. When the school was first built the uniform was bright yellow but now it is navy blue.
