Aiming for Excellence, Being the Best We Can Be. Every day in school is focused on learning and developing a love of learning. We hope our website will provide you with a flavour of the many wonderful opportunities and experiences offered in our school, and also give you the information needed to support your child's educational journey.
We are a Catholic Primary School in the heart of Kingsbury, clear in our beliefs and values, and the importance of Jesus Christ in our daily lives. As a Catholic school in the Diocese of Westminster we maintain strong links with our local parish of SS Sebastian and Pancras, located on Hay Lane, Kingsbury.
We are inspired by our Patron Saint, Saint Robert Southwell, whose feast day we celebrate each year on 21st February. Learning is central to all we do and is our core purpose. We approach learning in exciting, enriching and creative ways, in order to engage, inspire and enthuse our children.
