Message from Mrs Dhaliwal

At our school, we deeply value your input and views as key stakeholders in our school community. As we continue our journey of school improvement, we are fully aware of the areas where we can make things even better for our children. With your support, we aim to create the best possible environment for all children to flourish and “live life in all its fullness.”

We are committed to living out our school values of respect, perseverance, trust, compassion, and responsibility. With these principles at the heart of everything we do, your feedback is crucial in helping us reflect on what we do well and where we can make improvements.

By working together, we can ensure that every child is given the opportunity to thrive.

Please take a few moments to complete this survey.
