HolyTrinity C
of E VA Primary School was established in 1846 and is a co-educational
day school for pupils aged between 4+ and 11 years. The school has
over three hundred pupils on roll.
The original
buildings of our school date from 1911, and an extensive re-modelling
and re-building programme was completed in 1990 and extended in
2003. The accommodation provides ten classrooms, hall, dining area,
library, resources, cloakrooms, general office, staff and headteacher's
rooms. A computer suite was opened in Easter 2004. There is a purpose
built Hearing Resource Centre, known as the Cleary Centre, for hearing
impaired pupils, who are included as an integral part of the school.
Within
a Christian framework the aim of the school is to educate the children
to the best of their ability and to provide a happy, caring and
secure environment.
The
children are our future - what they experience today they take into
tomorrow.
Let
this be: hope, enthusiasm, knowledge and understanding, confidence,
self-respect, positive relationships, kindness and consideration
for others, tolerance and a zest for living.
Our school is a Voluntary Aided School. We are a school with a warm
and welcoming community. We have strong church links and a teaching
staff who are in sympathy with the Christian faith as expressed
by the Church of England.
