As Headteacher, I believe in the friendly, welcoming environment that characterises our school. When we welcome the child, we welcome the family. We hope that anyone visiting our school will also feel the warmth and openness of our welcome. Relationships are very important to us and we do everything we can to encourage positive relationships built on a sense of empathy, trust and honesty.

The education children receive at Our Lady's has Children at the Centre – Jesus at the Heart; we are acknowledged in our local community as a good Catholic school with strong traditions and a culture of inclusiveness. We recognise, through worship, through the liturgy and all aspects of learning and teaching, that every member of the school brings his or her own special gifts and talents to our community. We encourage children to use these to take ownership of their learning and to develop to their full potential. All staff encourage children to have a love of learning and to develop an enquiring mind. We offer a broad, creative curriculum delivered through a wide range of teaching styles, extended learning opportunities and outdoor teaching, to ensure that every child's needs are catered for. 

You are always welcome in school whether it is to share in a school event, to support a FRIENDS function or to express a concern. If you would like to make an appointment to see a member of staff, please telephone the school office and we will do everything we can to accommodate you.

Please contact the school office if you would like paper copies of any information from our website.
