School Ethos & Mission Statement

The School is striving to develop a friendly, happy and caring atmosphere in which the children can learn.

Our mission statement is “we care.” The staff are expected to promote and develop this caring approach within their own class and throughout the school.

The Family will:

Make sure your child arrives at school on time. School starts at 8.55 a.m.
