Welcome to St Luke's CE Primary School - Chadderton, Oldham Welcome to St Luke's, where we live out our vision, Living and Learning Together in Faith . Rooted in the words of Jesus, "I came that they might have life, and they might live abundantly" (John 10:10) , we are a community that values inclusivity, respect, love, kindness, faith, and hope.
