As Headteacher here at Christ Church New Malden, I am delighted to welcome you to our school website, which I pray will give you an insight into the life of our vibrant school community.
Set in the heart of New Malden, we are proud to serve our community as a thriving Church of England primary school, with a great history and a bright future, centred around a commitment to each child's high and broad achievement and the flourishing of all children and adults in our school.
We see our Christian ethos as the heartbeat of our school, as we embrace our vision of Becoming the people God made us to be in all we are and all we do; this is our hope and prayer in nurturing the learning and well-being of each of our children. For we are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do. Ephesians 2:10
