A Place to Belong, A Place to Grow Working together to be the best we can be St Nicholas at Wade Church of England Primary School Buttercup Class had a fantastic time with Ian from KIC theatre last week. He explored the book The Proudest Blue where he incorporated our Christian Values into some super drama and story telling. The children were engaged and enthused!
They also welcomed a few secret readers, the children were captivated and loved having different story tellers throughout the week - thank you for visiting us! Following the loving example of Jesus Christ, we work together to ensure that everyone in our school family is the best they can be through our aspirational and inclusive environment.
We embody gratitude, ensuring all have the building blocks to be happy, confident, responsible individuals - successful now and equipped for the future.
