Welcome to St. Laurence Church of England Primary School
Our Vision
John 13:34
“Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another.”
At St. Laurence Church of England Primary School, our Christian values are at the heart of all we do. Together, we reflect the love of God, the love of life and the love of learning.
We are a nurturing and inclusive community where everyone is valued and celebrated for who they are. Through kindness, positive relationships and a sense of belonging, we create the foundations for every individual to flourish.
We help children discover who they are and what they can achieve, academically, personally and spiritually. Through curiosity, challenge and critical thinking, we develop confident, compassionate individuals who understand themselves and connect with others and the world.
Out three core values inform our curriculum and our ethos:
Trust
'I trust in your unfailing love' (Psalm 1 3:5)
In our school community, we feel safe and valued. we know that there is always someone that will help us. We behave with honesty and integrity; work as a team and build friendships. All our learning is based upon this trust in each other.
Wisdom
'He who walks with the wise grows wise' (Proverbs 1 3:20)
In our community we join together to make good choices and informed decisions. We reflect on our learning to understand how to improve our work; how to meet challenges and so become better learners.
Creativity
'In his grace. God has given us different gifts for doing certain things well' (Romans 1 2:6)
In our school we provide an environment where we strive for self-belief so that we can fully develop our talents; express ourselves clearly and confidently and aspire to excel.
Our School Prayer
Dear God,
