Parents and Carers

Guide us O God, to be the best we can be: In every thought, in every word and in every deed.

We are blessed to have a really supportive school community. Relationships are strengthened through our welcoming ethos, transparent operations and keenness to build the very best community that we can.

Always come and talk to us about things that may be worrying you or your child; no concern will be considered too small. We regard our families and carers as the experts of our children and we welcome your input and support. Don't forget to tell us the good things too - we celebrate your child's achievements every Friday in our whole school assembly to which everyone is welcome!
