St Anne’s is a family where every member of staff knows each child and we work in partnership with families to ensure that our children reach their full potential.

We have a Reception class and three mixed age classes. At St Anne’s we are proud of our kind, nurturing learning community where life is lived to the full. Our inclusive approach, based on a strong foundation of Christian values, ensures that everyone is welcome, is valued, has high aspirations and is given opportunity to flourish in every area of life.
