From the Grasmere CofE Primary School
Being alive at that morning was bliss, but being young was absolute nirvana. Wordsworth. Greetings from our joyful school. From this website, we hope you may get a feel of its dynamism, ambition, and ethos. In the centre of The Lake District, there is a modest church, nursery, and primary school called Grasmere School. A human scale community exists here. Each member of the faculty and staff is well acquainted with the others, and each person contributes significantly to the life of the school. Both character and academic comprehension are things we want to develop. We hold each child in the highest regard and are aware of their limitless potential. We make the most of our wonderful location for learning. We also involve the village's residents, who offer us a variety of knowledge. Our solid, loving relationships and a unified passion for lifelong learning serve as the foundation of the school. We think that comfortable and content children (and staff) are more willing to inquire, explore, and learn. Hopefully, this website can help you discover the answers to a lot of your queries. Please get in touch if you're interested in learning more. The staff and kids here would be delighted to show you around.
