Letter from Head

Dear Parents/Carers,

Welcome to our school. This brochure has been prepared to give you a clear picture of the school and it’s aims. We hope it will be helpful to you.

Our school building creates a warm, welcoming and stimulating environment to work in and our skilled and experienced staff work closely together on behalf of the children.

Our class sizes enable staff to create an atmosphere in which each child’s personal talents can be developed to the fullest extent. We aim to work closely with each child and their family and that all the children will feel as safe and happy at school as they do at home.

We are proud of the achievements of all our children and like them to take a pride in all they do in our school. We are an important part of the community and enjoy being involved in all that goes on within it.

We are a Church School where we share, value and celebrate the achievements of all our children.

If you would like to come and see the school, please phone the office and we will be happy to make an appointment. I look forward to meeting and working with you so that together, we can give your child the very best possible start to their school life.

Yours sincerely,
    
Chris Lawson
Headteacher
