Rooted in God's love, everyone growing together to be the best we can be.

As a Church of England primary school, our school is committed to bringing out the best in each other. 'The Bible tells us that when the apostle Paul was in prison for his faith, he wrote to his friends saying 'And this is my prayer, that your love may overflow more and more with knowledge and full insight' (Philippians 1:9).

This is our prayer as a school community too; that all of us may be rooted in God's love - growing in confidence, building healthy relationships, and learning about ourselves as well the world around us.

Our vision is grounded in our foundation as a Church of England school, where we embody our six Christian values:
Ambition, Compassion, Courage, Kindness, Respect, and Trust.

• Ambition
• Compassion
• Courage
• Kindness
• Respect
• Trust
