Our Vision:
Building brighter futures by learning happily through God's love…
To provide a safe, happy and caring community where everyone can aspire to be their
best and the person God created them to be.
We will achieve this by ensuring every individual flourishes through our Christian values
and providing an engaging and challenging curriculum.
Our children will develop the values, skills and personal qualities to build a
brighter future for themselves and God’s world.
Our Values:
Within our school, our values underpin and permeate through everyday life at Nyewood CE Junior School. We fundamentally believe that our values support our children to become the very best versions of themselves, which are further strengthened and supported by the life and teachings of Jesus and the Christian faith. We foster these values in the children's day-to-day life in school, that facilitates these to be put into practice as one large Nyewood CE Junior School community. Our children are recognised when they display or utilise these values through receiving values tokens. Tokens are brought to celebration worship where class value's champions are announced alongside class value's champions.
