Vision and Values

Our School Vision

Jesus encouraged all his children to live life in all its’ fullness. Through our core values of love, courage and hope, and with an enquiry approach to our curriculum, our children enjoy learning about themselves, about others and the world which we are guardians of. We nurture a love of learning, celebrate courage to persevere in learning and hope through sharing the joy that comes from the belief that all is never lost.

‘Be kind, never give up and work together.’

Being a Church School

We are a Voluntary Controlled Church of England Infant School with close links to All Saints Church, Fawley, our parish church and are part of the Diocese of Portsmouth and Winchester.

As a church school, our ethos is based on distinctively Christian vision and values which underpin all we do. Church schools are successful places of learning for children of all faiths and none, where questioning of belief and non-belief is encouraged as we all try to make sense of the world, the gift of life and the purpose of our own personal lives.

This means that as a school, we encourage children to be curious about faith and explore their own spiritual development. We offer children an experience of faith through collective worship and close links with our parish church. The whole school visits the church at key points during the year, such as Christingle and Easter. Our vicar, Rev. Alison Bennett will regularly lead collective worship (also known as assemblies) at school.
