Durham's Diocese includes Our School.
A Welcome Message from Bishop Paul Butler, the Bishop of Durham.
Over a long period of time, I've had the honour of visiting schools all over the world.
This has occurred not only in England but also in some of the world's poorest nations, including Rwanda, Burundi, and Uganda.
No matter where I visit a school, I am always moved by the commitment of the staff and the parents' desire to provide their children the finest education possible.
As a parent, I am aware that you just want the best for your kid.
Since the Church of England also wants the best for every kid, it is involved in education.
They hold a special place in the school's heart.
Because of the significance that we as church schools place on every kid, this is especially true for us.
One day, Jesus' friends got into a disagreement over who was the greatest in God's kingdom.
We want your child's education and our schools to be centred around that sense of being loved, cherished, and welcomed.
Every school receives the best instruction we are able to provide.
Our religious schools, in our opinion, provide every child with an excellent all-around education.
So, welcome to a lovely church school of ours.
