From the Corpus Christi Catholic Primary School
We are all very proud of our school and you will see why when you visit. You'll notice that respect and love for one another underpin all we do, from the way we welcome you to how our kids interact with our staff. We recognise that parents and carers serve as the "first teachers," and because of our open-door policy, parents can express concerns to me, a senior leader, or their child's instructor as soon as possible. Our children thrive here and make outstanding academic progress, but we are more concerned with the "whole child" than anything else. We collaborate with parents to make sure every kid has the opportunity to succeed intellectually, emotionally, spiritually, and socially. We recognise that everyone of our children is unique, with various gifts and needs.
