It is a great privilege to welcome you to Our Lady & St Oswald’s Catholic Primary School and Nursery.

At the heart of our school is Christ and His promise:

“I came so that they might have life and have it more abundantly.”
John 10:10

This is the vision we have for every child who comes through our doors. We want our children to be known, valued and loved; to grow in faith and confidence; to discover their God-given gifts; and to develop the knowledge, character and skills they need to live life to the full.

Our Lady & St Oswald’s is a happy, caring and ambitious Catholic community. Our faith is not simply one part of school life, but shapes the way we learn, serve and treat one another. Through our Gospel values, we encourage our children to be kind, to make safe and responsible choices and always to try their best.

We know that children flourish when school and home work closely together. We therefore place great importance on the relationships we build with our families, parish and wider community. Together, we seek to provide an environment where every child feels safe, included and supported to achieve their very best.

It is an exciting time for our school as we continue to strengthen our curriculum, learning environments and provision, including the development of our new Forest Nursery. Whether your family is already part of Our Lady & St Oswald’s or you are considering joining us, I hope our website gives you a sense of the warmth, joy and ambition of our community.

Of course, a website can only tell you so much. If you are considering Our Lady & St Oswald’s for your child, I would be delighted to welcome you to visit us, meet our children and staff and experience our school for yourself.

Thank you for taking the time to visit our website. I hope you enjoy discovering more about our wonderful school community.

Yours sincerely,

Mr Conor Meehan
Headteacher
