In September 2012, after several years of planning and a lot of hard work from a small and dedicated team, St. Michael's Church School opened its doors for the first time. On day one, we successfully welcomed 14 children into two new classes: Reception and a mixed Year 1/2 class. Since then, our school has grown from strength to strength and now supports, nurtures and challenges over 414 children every day across 13 classes from Reception to Year 6.
At St Michael’s we will expect all children to work hard and be conscientious so that they may gain the maximum advantage from their time spent with us.
All staff will help children to develop self-discipline, a sense of responsibility and respect for others and their property. We will also expect a high standard of work and behaviour and the children’s active involvement in both.
Parental support is vital in achieving these aims and we will do our best to develop a positive working relationship between home and school. The support and encouragement you give your child is important if they are to have a positive and effective attitude to learning.
Visits to our school are welcomed so do contact the school office for further information.
"At St Michael's we are a church school family - actually living each day, all that a family might uphold and instil. We want the very best for everyone in our school and community regardless of whether they are a child or an adult; we nurture gifts and talents and closely support those areas of living and learning together that might be that bit harder to achieve. We actively encourage children and staff to grow as kind, compassionate people who show perseverance and resilience as they work towards achieving their full potential. This we find, makes children and adults very happy to come to our school every day and we enjoy working together and being a positive influence on each other's lives."
Therefore our vision is:
"To Be the Best that we can be."
