We are delighted to offer you a warm welcome to our school family. Annecy Catholic Primary School is a unique, inspiring and welcoming school, in which our whole community of children, parents, staff and governors work together in a caring and supportive environment to help each child grow and develop.
We are very proud of our school, its achievements and in the excellent and stimulating curriculum, we offer to our children. As a small school, we pride ourselves on knowing each child as an individual member of the Annecy family.
Inspired by the Gospel, we love life and all it teaches us, and encourage our children to achieve beyond their dreams, exploring the different gifts and talents with which they have been blessed. We firmly believe that "It takes a village to raise a child!"
This is proverb means an entire community of people must interact with children for those children to grow in a safe and healthy environment. We strive to work with you, as parents and carers, to bring your child into our school family, where they can explore and develop all their gifts and talents and grow alongside others as children of God.
