Welcome to Our School
At our school, everyone is valued and included as we work together to make the world a better place. We believe in nurturing strong relationships, encouraging creativity, and helping children develop the skills they need for life and work.
In partnership with you, we aim to support your child to feel challenged, motivated, and inspired to reach their full potential. Our caring and inclusive approach fosters resilience, creativity, and a love of learning. We provide experiences that help every child discover and develop their talents, ensuring they grow academically, emotionally, and physically in a safe, happy, and stimulating environment.
We are proud to be a school at the heart of the community. Children play an active role in shaping their learning through planning activities, Pupil Voice sessions, focus groups, and our Junior Leadership Team.
Our dedicated team includes a Head Teacher, Principal Teacher, Class Teachers, ASN Auxiliaries, and nursery staff led by a Senior Early Years Practitioner. We also offer specialist teaching in PE, Music and Drama, with piano lessons available from Primary 5. Behind the scenes, our administrative and facilities staff help keep everything running smoothly.
This website is here to give you key information about our school. You’ll find our menu by clicking the three lines at the top left corner. Over time, we’ll add more details about our curriculum and policies.
If you’d like to discuss any aspect of your child’s learning or progress, please contact us and we’ll be happy to arrange a time to talk.
We look forward to working together with you to get it right for your child.
Kind regards,
Mhairi Stratton
