Our School’s Vision
Through actively opening doors for everyone in our community, we remove barriers and support all to appreciate ‘life in all its fullness’ (John 10:10).
As a family, we nurture and grow each other as individuals, encouraging all to stretch themselves spiritually, morally, intellectually, emotionally, socially, culturally and physically in order to achieve more than they dreamed possible.
We understand that our adventures may be littered with challenges, but with friendship, perseverance and courage we know that ‘we can do all things through Christ who strengthens us’ (Philippians 4 v 13).
Our School Values
At St. Peter’s CE Primary School our core Christian values underpin every aspect of school life. They form the basis of our expectations for all members of our school family and we endeavour to demonstrate these values through our thoughts, words and actions every day. As a school we value:
- Perseverance
- Thankfulness
- Respect
- Friendship
- Compassion
- Courage
