As a Catholic school, Jesus is central to all that we do, and we offer children the opportunity to grow in their faith and relationship with God in an atmosphere of mutual love and respect. This is entwined through our Curriculum and celebrated daily through Prayer and Liturgy; our school is supported by the Archdiocese and works in partnership with The Archdiocese of Liverpool, Knowsley Council and the Parish of St John Fisher and St Columba.
On behalf of the pupils, staff and governors I would like to warmly welcome you to St John Fisher Catholic Primary and Nursery School’s website.
