A warm welcome to St Ambrose Catholic Primary School. We want all our children to feel loved and valued and we aim to help them to reach their full potential and develop the gifts and talents given to them by God. Alongside this, we strive to provide an exciting, creative and broad curriculum that encourages and challenges each child to do their best.
As a Catholic school, Jesus is at the heart of all that we do and we aim to follow in his footsteps in an environment of love and forgiveness. We want our children to be the best that they can be. Visits to the school are warmly welcomed so you can see us in action and see for yourselves why St Ambrose is a special place.
