Pupils

Our children are at the heart of our school, which is a loving and supportive place to learn. We are a Catholic school but we are also an integral part of our whole community and fully reflect the cultural makeup of families in our area. Families with no faith or of other faiths are warmly welcomed and make up a significant number of our school family.

Here at Our Lady of the Rosary, we are committed to ensuring that each child meets their full potential, excelling at every opportunity, both inside and outside of the classroom, in a happy and safe environment. We strive to enable all our pupils to be the best possible version of themselves. We allow and encourage them to think outside of the box. We teach them how to dream, cast vision and set goals. We teach our children how to deal with failure so that they learn how to pick themselves up, overcome challenges and ignite their initiatives again. We foster a climate of curiosity and independence and in doing so, develop transferable skills for life long learning and intrinsic value of life.
