St Richard's Church of England Primary School

We are so lucky to benefit from a large site, well-laid out buildings; fantastic playing fields with a Multi-Use Games Area; a school allotment and our very own swimming pool. All recently upgraded to be fully accessible to all children.

However, we feel that what really sets us apart is not our physical environment but the purposeful, friendly, nurturing atmosphere that all visitors to our school comment upon. This comes from our strong, inclusive Christian ethos and desire that every child should achieve their absolute best in a place where they are both valued and challenged in equal measure.

Our motto Bold, Bright and Beautiful perfectly encapsulates the pupils in our school. They challenge themselves; try their best; have great fun and live school life to the full. We have high aspirations for all our pupils and believe that through stretching children we build their confidence and self-esteem.

The school is positioned in the centre of Ham and, with this in mind, we constantly look for opportunities to serve our local community, helping to shape its future through the children who attend our school.
