    Welcome to Our Lady and St Rose of Lima Catholic Primary School

    A very warm welcome to Our Lady and St Rose of Lima Catholic Primary School.

    We are incredibly proud of our school and the wonderful community of children, families, staff and parish who make it such a special place. Our mission, “Learning, Living, Loving together in Christ,” is at the heart of everything we do, guiding the way we learn, grow and care for one another.

    We believe that every child is unique, created in the image of God and blessed with their own gifts and talents. We have high expectations for all our children and are committed to providing an ambitious, engaging education that nurtures questioning minds, develops a thirst for knowledge and enables every child to flourish, whatever their starting point.

    We believe that education is about so much more than what happens in the classroom. Through educational visits, sport, music, the arts, outdoor learning and opportunities to serve others, we aim to broaden horizons, inspire curiosity, nurture talents and create memories that last a lifetime. We want our children to embrace new experiences, discover what they are capable of and develop a lifelong love of learning.

    Our faith is woven into every aspect of school life. Through prayer, worship, reflection and living out Catholic Social Teaching, we encourage our children to grow as Christ-centred pilgrims of hope, with kind hearts, compassion for others and a hunger for justice. We want them to recognise their responsibility to care for God's creation, stand up for what is right and make a positive difference in the world.

    We value the strong partnership between school, home and parish, recognising that children thrive when we work together. We celebrate the diversity of our school community and strive to ensure that every child and family feels welcomed, valued and a genuine sense of belonging.

    When our children leave us at the end of Year 6, we want them to be well educated, confident and compassionate young people, enriched by their experiences, strengthened by their faith and ready to embrace the next chapter of their lives with hope.

    Our children only get one chance at their primary education, and together we are determined to make it the very best it can be.

    We hope our website gives you a glimpse of the faith, learning, opportunities and joy that make Our Lady and St Rose such a special place. We warmly invite you to visit and experience our school for yourself.
