Holy Island and Lowick C of E First Schools are a federation - the children study together at Lowick with the children who live on the island coming to Lowick when the tide allows. Wherever we are though - we are 'Journeying Together'.
We aim to provide an attractive, stimulating and caring learning environment which will nurture the development and potential of every child in our care - enabling them to become effective independent learners who will have a positive and active approach to their future lives in society.
We work to develop lively, enquiring minds with the ability to question, investigate, solve problems and start to form the personal values that will help them make sense of the world in which they live and from positive social relationships.
Finally, we aim to enable the children to communicate their feelings and ideas fluently, to be self reliant and able to use their initiative.
