From the Lewis Street Primary School
Being the Executive Headteacher of Lewis Street and Christ Church CE Primary Schools makes me really proud. Lewis Street Primary School first opened its doors in 1905 and over a century later we believe that accountability and trust through partnership provides better opportunities for all children through school to school support and challenge. Our motto, "love, learn, explore," is at the core of our offering. We believe that a child who develops a love of learning is more likely to make good progress and a child who makes good progress is more likely to carry these skills forward through life. All of our kids are urged to put out their best effort, accept accountability for their own actions, give everything a go, and strive for success. We are dedicated to helping our kids grow academically, physically, emotionally, and socially. To that end, we provide them with the best possible learning opportunities through numerous trips (including residential ones), visitors, and a cutting-edge curriculum that combines skills and knowledge with intriguing themes and resources. We also think that building a strong bond between home and school will help us provide our kids with the greatest possible education. There are numerous possibilities for parents to learn about and participate in their children's education. This information should be helpful to you, but it can only offer you a general idea of what we do. Parents and carers are always invited to come and speak with me in person. I can assure you that you will always be given a warm welcome.
