We aim to give you a taster of the school, as well as providing up to date information for parents, pupils and wider community.

This can only be achieved by close co-operation between school and home.

The school opened to the community in 1975 and has continued to grow in recent years.

We will always be available to talk to you about any aspect of your child’s development. We hope you will share with us in making this a successful period in your child’s life.
