We are a small primary school surrounded by a rich natural environment. Our nurturing and committed staff team is dedicated to helping every child reach their potential. Our curriculum is thoughtfully designed with our school, our children and our vision at the forefront.
You can be confident that your child will be seen and valued for the wonderful person they are and that our team will be with them on every step of their learning journey, helping them to achieve their very best. When you join us, your childs education will be rooted in our HSA Way.
This is our expression of all we do as a Church of England school to foster childrens personal and spiritual growth, alongside their academic learning so they live life in all its fullness.
We are guided by our bible verse Let your Light Shine and seek to provide as many opportunities as we can for your child to find what they are good at so that their unique light can shine in the world.
