Our school consists of a range of different families that share in the same Christian values. Parents and children loving Jesus and in regular fellowship with other believers will maximise the results of our Christian curriculum. As well as families that have faith in Jesus Christ, we welcome and include families that agree with our ‘Vision and Values’ Statement.
