Welcome from Mrs Staffa

May I wish you a warm welcome to our school website.

Choosing the right school for your child is one of the most important decisions you will make as a parent or carer. As Headteacher, it is both a privilege and a pleasure to work alongside our dedicated staff and governors to lead such a friendly and nurturing school community.

We are committed to helping every child grow into a confident, caring and articulate individual, supported to achieve their full potential. Our school provides a calm, happy and purposeful environment where high standards of respect, courtesy, hard work and achievement are expected of everyone.

At Our Lady’s we always put children first; this aim is at the heart of our vision. Every child is unique, made in the image and likeness of God. Every child deserves to be happy, feel valued and experience success. Our Mission Statement is at heart of everything we do and we live out the values of our Christian faith throughout our daily lives. 

We are passionate about ensuring our children leave us with a rich toolkit of skills, knowledge and values ready to support them in the next stage of their life's journey. Whilst we nurture each child to support them in reaching their full potential academically, we are also determined to support them in understanding how to care for themselves, how to build and maintain healthy relationships and to have the self belief and self confidence to achieve anything they want in life!

As parents and carers, you play a vital role in your child’s education, and we value the strong partnerships we build together. At OLPS, we are here not only for our children, but for our families too.

We understand that life can sometimes be challenging for both children and families and we have a team of dedicated, caring staff who are here to offer support, guidance and a listening ear whenever it is needed.

The website will provide information about the school, its aims, curriculum, activities, events and celebrations of our children’s work. I hope that it will be a useful tool for you and also that it will give you a ‘feel’ for the life and work of the school and for the caring and friendly atmosphere that you will find here.

Please feel free to come into school and we will be happy to answer any questions you may have.

Mrs Staffa
