A Warm Welcome to St James (Daisy Hill) CE Primary School

Working together to achieve excellence within a caring Christian community of faith, hope and love.

It gives us great pleasure to welcome you to our school and introduce our bright, busy and exciting Christian school community. We hope that by using our school website you will get a picture of our vision, aims and the values that we uphold.

From the moment that you step into St James you will find us to be a caring school, full of happy, friendly children who are polite, engaged in their learning and evidently proud of their school. We have high expectations at St James and our staff work hard to ensure that all children are encouraged and supported in developing good learning behaviour and the social skills to equip them for the journey ahead.

We are passionate about ensuring that every child at St James reaches their full potential and we hold a firm belief that all children can and will succeed and achieve. Staff at St James are committed to ensuring that all of the children love coming to school every day and experience a rich and diverse curriculum that is exciting, engaging and inspiring.

At St James we believe that a strong partnership between home and school is the best foundation for a positive and successful education. Our parents and carers share this view and we work together to make each child’s experience as fulfilling as possible ensuring highly successful outcomes for all of our children.

We are extremely proud of our school and warmly welcome visitors. We hope that we will meet you soon.

Our Christian Values

And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.

Corinthians 13:13 

At St James we work together within a caring Christian community, where all we do is done with love.

Encouraging forgiveness and perseverance in ourselves and others, we learn from our mistakes and grow with kind and happy hearts.

Through our faith in God and each other, we guide all our pupils to achieve excellent educational outcomes, pursue individual strengths and talents and become well-rounded characters.

Inspiring respect and appreciation for our ever-changing world, we embrace its rich diversity and the wonder it offers.

Through these values, our hope is that pupils will flourish, guided by the teachings of Jesus.

Our values have a strong Christian focus, with their roots in the bible, which support our children in developing a strong moral code.

Our current Home/School Value for this half-term is ‘Forgiveness’. We are promoting this core value both in school and through you – our families at home. Please take the time to discusst this Christian Value with your child(ren).
