Within the context of the values of the Gospel and the Catholic Faith, it is the role of the school to work in active partnership with parents and so assist them in their responsibility for educating their children thereby enabling each child to develop her/his full potential as a unique child of God.
Our role leads us to affirm the religious and cultural identities of all and create a caring community where everyone is valued, in which the Gospel values of trust, respect, tolerance, honesty and forgiveness are seen in everything that is attempted and where the love of God touches all who come into contact with the school.
Helped by the relationships established within the school, we aim to create a secure environment in which quality of life, enjoyment of school, self-esteem, a respect of others and a sense of personal and collective achievement can be found.
We strive to foster the individual spiritual, educational, social and personal development of all our children by providing a broad and balanced curriculum that includes programmes of study and a variety of activities.
We aim to provide a variety of opportunities for meaningful worship that recognises the needs of the whole school community and encourage all to participate and thus develop their own journey of faith.
Through these experiences we endeavour to help all who share in our worship to mature in their relationships with God and take their place confidently in the wider worshipping community.
We aim to develop the school as a valuable and active part of our parishes, our immediate community and the wider world.
By supporting each other with care and understanding we strive to foster the personal growth of all members of our community”
