Saint Anne's Primary School

Saint Anne’s Primary School was opened in 1968 and we pride ourselves in the excellent facilities we are able to offer all of our children and young people. As a school we strive to provide the best quality education for the children in our care ensuring they become successful learners, confident individuals, responsible citizens and effective contributors. We support all of our children to ensure they do their best and fulfill their potential throughout the Primary School, encouraging them on their journey as lifelong learners.

As a school we are committed to working in partnership with parents and carers and we very much value your opinions and suggestions on how to improve our school. We have high but achievable expectations in terms of behaviour, attitude and attendance at school.

In Saint Anne’s Primary School we give the children as many opportunities as possible and promote a caring, honest and respectful ethos where we work together as a community. Children are encouraged to take pride in their school and are encouraged to be responsible in their actions.

We are proud of our Catholic School and we know that we have a right to an excellent education where everyone is included. We know that it is our responsibility to learn as much as we can and to help others learn.

Our school is a fun place to be in and we feel happy, safe and very well cared for. We know the importance of and try hard to live a healthy lifestyle. We know that we have a right to be heard. In our school we are listened to and our views are taken into account.

In Saint Anne’s Primary School our Parents, School Staff and Parish Priest all work together to make sure we reach our potential as Confident Individuals, Successful Learners, Responsible Citizens and Effective Contributors.

Our school motto is ‘Reach for the Stars’. We always do our best and try to ‘be all we can be’ to make sure our dreams in life come true. In Saint Anne’s Primary School our values are important to us as are our beliefs about how we should behave.
