Our School Vision

Our School Aims

To help children understand that they are made in the image of God and to become aware of their true dignity as children of God;
To teach and promote respect for other races, religions and cultures;
To help children to grow in virtue and continue to develop strong moral values and a sense of right and wrong;
To know our children personally and build relationships of mutual trust;
To be a caring community involving children, parents, staff, governors and priests in the development of the whole child;
To create a climate of successful learning and teaching in which children are encouraged to develop enquiring minds and work to the best of their ability;
To stimulate in children a sense of awe and wonder, excitement and enthusiasm about the world around them;
To encourage children to value their personal contribution to the school and community;
To encourage children to become active and caring members of the wider community.

We aim to achieve our Mission by providing an excellent Catholic education for all and provide strong support to strengthen School-Home-Parish links. Please see some examples of how we do this below:
Father Ian McDole (St Ann's) visits our school weekly to meet with different classes to discuss questions children have about life and faith;
Father Ian leads Masses in school;
Reconciliation takes place during Advent and Lent;
Children from Year 4 upwards are invited to celebrate Mass at St Ann's Church on Holy Days of Obligation;
The church provides a range of support for our families that need it.
