The blog will give you a sample of life in our school. All our staff, pupils and parents strive to make our school a happy place where learning is the central focus.
With a current enrolment of 117 children, the school prides itself on the quality of its pastoral care, its academic success, its strong sporting ethos, the quality of relations at all levels and its links with parents, the parish and the community. Children benefit from a wealth of experiences ranging from academic and sporting to pastoral with emphasis on positive relationships and inclusion.

Shoeboxes can be filled with items such as a toothbrush, shampoo, deoderant, a bar of soap, plasters, socks/tights, a calculator, crayons, felt tips, colouring book, balloons, pens, pencils etc.
Shoeboxes should be returned to school on Monday 24th of October.
