ABOUT US
We want everyone who is part of St Katharine’s to know that they are unique, and that they can flourish and make a difference in God’s World through living out the values of Grace, Integrity and Aspiration, now and in the future.
Our vision is grounded in the Christian faith and reaches out to all our community. Our values of Grace, Integrity and Aspiration are well-embedded, as are our ‘Powerful Learning Attributes’. Central to our ethos is the importance of wellbeing and that the whole person is made up of ‘Head (mental health and learning), Heart (spirituality and relationships), Hands (physical health)’.
We have designed a book that tells the story of our school vision and ethos.

Our SEASIDE curriculum recognises that we aim for high standards in learning across the whole curriculum and ensure that our curriculum and the wider opportunities for learning and personal development are purposeful, challenging and enjoyable. We are proud of our provision for PE, sport and the arts. To celebrate being an active school, we all wear PE kit every Friday and children in years 1 to 6 attend a ‘Head, Heart, Hands’ club of their choice, during the morning.
