Aims and Values

Our mission statement 

Nurturing ‘life in all its fullness’ (John 10:10) 

We believe that it is fundamental for the children to belong to a safe and nurturing community, founded on strong Christian values (courage, compassion, thankfulness) where children will develop an array of skills that will enable them to make their own positive contribution to both our local community and global society.

We want to make sure that our Christian values run through everything we do and they guide us in our decision making and our future plans. The wheel shows what we as a school stand for and strive for.

At the centre of our hub is nurturing life in its fullness. We aim to work together; building our schools foundations on strong relationships. Then we have the spokes of the wheel that are our Christian values. The wheel, or rim, are our aims, policies and procedures that allow our school to run smoothly and drive our ambition.

 Aims of the school

• An open and welcoming partnership between school, home and the community
• A progressive, inclusive and creative curriculum
• Innovative and high quality teaching which empowers children to become investigative and independent learners

• Valuing, celebrating and embracing diversity and individuality

As a school we believe Jesus came to give us ‘life in all its fullness’ (John 10:10) and through our lived reality we strive to provide experiences, skills and opportunities to practise this in our daily life
