"Loved by Jesus and Our Lady of La Salette, we learn and grow together in joy and friendship." Welcome to La Salette Catholic Primary School. We are a small Catholic School located in Rainham, within the London Borough of Havering. As a school we place our Catholic faith and the education of all of our children at the very centre of all we do.
We are passionate about shaping our children into life-long learners who are keen to explore the world around them through our gospel values of joy, love and friendship . We want our children to enjoy their school experience. This means making sure children are enthused and engaged at school.
Our children help shape our curriculum and the extra-curriculum provision through our School Council and many other pupil-led groups. As a school we believe that we have a duty to provide not just a firm academic platform for children to progress from, but one that instils the importance of being good citizens in our community and parish.
