We want the very best for all our children and we have the highest aspirations for all our children. We want each child to leave our school with the skills and talents to equip them for life. We do this through providing the children with a full, varied learning experience which is exciting and develops the child as an individual.

Our staff, along with supportive parents and LAB members, contribute to the success of our school. We work together as one community with a common purpose to ensure that our children are happy and successful, developing a lifelong love of learning.

No two days are the same. Every day is a new and exciting experience which I am proud to be a part of. We offer a creative curriculum where children enjoy opportunities to have a fullness of life. Some of these opportunities include trips to London, a Year 6 residential, swimming lessons, frequent visits from the school dog, author visits, pancake flips and much more.
