At St Anne's CE (Aided) Primary School, we create a community where we grow together in faith and compassion to flourish in God's World. We nurture our whole school family to develop a strong sense of love and respect and to have the courage to seek out the wisdom to make a positive impact in our own lives and the lives of others.
We will prepare children for a life beyond St Anne's and through God's love, rich experiences and a sense of belonging, all will make strong roots to grow, flourish and bear fruit. We draw inspiration from the Biblical narrative 'The Vine and the Branches'. "I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit" (John 15:5).
Through these core values we will achieve our vision: courage, wisdom, love, respect, faith and compassion . Through our faith in God as the gardener who tends and cares for us, we work together to grow and flourish. We all belong to the vine and together we will grow and produce the most amazing fruit. Our Christian Values will help us all to deliver our vision as:
