"Learning and growing together, rooted in Christ"
Our Catholic faith is central to all that we do at Our Lady of the Wayside School and Christian worship is an integral part of our school life. It inspires our mission of ‘Learning and growing together rooted in Christ’, directs our work of teaching and learning and offers us a vision for the goal of human life. We aim for every child to develop a personal and unique relationship with God. When pupils join our school they become part of this community. Every day starts with an Act of Worship, we give thanks before lunch and we end the day with a prayer. We believe that Christ is at the centre of all we do and therefore we offer each child a broad, balanced and relevant curriculum of the highest standard to meet their spiritual, emotional, moral, intellectual and physical needs and to prepare them for the responsibilities of adult life.
A warm welcome from Headteacher Mrs Deborah Enstone emphasising Catholic ethos, inclusive community and the mission 'Learning and growing together rooted in Christ'.
